Kelly Clarkson is a true American icon. Not only is she an established singer-songwriter, but she has now taken to daytime talk shows with her very own show, The Kelly Clarkson Show. In the show, she conducts interviews with celebrities and airs segments on ordinary people. It also features guest performances from time to time. Audiences love her down-to-earth nature and the surprise performances. Today, we are going to cover one of the best the show has produced thus far.
To celebrate the release of his debut album, “I’ve Tried Everything But Therapy (Part 1)”, Teddy Swims appeared on the show. To the surprise of fans, he was allowed to duet “Lose Control” off of the record with Kelly Clarkson herself. It was the perfect promotional opportunity, and it was also a match made in heaven sonically. The two complement each other brilliantly, with Clarkson respectfully allowing Swims to take center stage and own his own song. Watch here:
The performance itself is a soulful, powerful duet that sent shivers down the spines of fans worldwide. It’s immediately clear that Teddy Swims is one of the rising stars of this decade, and has the potential to go very far in his career. The backing band only adds to the power of this impressive track, and both Swims and Clarkson provide a blistering performance. While Clarkson does take a back seat for most of the performance to allow Swims to shine, they come together powerfully at the end.
Kelly Clarkson might have a successful daytime television career now, but she has also had quite an illustrious career. The American singer-songwriter is an accomplished author and television personality, and her fame kick-started when she won the first season of American Idol in 2002. The record deal prize helped her push her music further and, from there, she became a true American star through and through. Without a doubt, she is best known for the classic “Because of You.”
Teddy Swims isn’t the only established artist to deliver a knockout performance on The Kelly Clarkson Show. Some of the biggest and best artists and entertainers have taken center stage on the show, including Canadian heartthrob Michael Buble and the Grammy Award-winning VICTORY. Guests outside of the music world also participate in the show, such as British chef and TV personality Jamie Oliver, and podcaster and author Jay Shetty.
