Kelly Clarkson

Kelly Brianne (lahir 24 April 1982), dikenal secara profesional sebagai Kelly Clarkson, adalah seorang penyanyi, penulis lagu, aktris, penulis, dan tokoh televisi Amerika. Dia menjadi terkenal setelah memenangkan musim pertama American Idol pada tahun 2002, yang membuatnya mendapatkan kontrak rekaman dengan RCA. Singel debutnya, "A Moment Like This", menduduki puncak Billboard Hot 100 AS, dan menjadi singel terlaris di Amerika pada tahun 2002. Singel ini dimasukkan dalam album studio debutnya, Thankful (2003), yang debut di puncak Billboard 200. Mencoba untuk menemukan kembali citranya, Clarkson berpisah dengan manajemen Idol dan beralih ke pop rock untuk album studio keduanya, Breakaway (2004). Didukung oleh empat singel sepuluh besar AS – lagu utama, "Sejak U Telah Pergi", "Di Balik Mata Hazel Ini", dan "Karena Anda" – Breakaway terjual lebih dari 12 juta kopi di seluruh dunia dan memenangkan dua Grammy Awards. Clarkson mengambil kendali kreatif lebih lanjut untuk album studio ketiganya, My December (2007), ikut menulis semua lagunya dan menjadi produser eksekutifnya. Namun, labelnya tidak puas dengan musik rock yang lebih gelap dari album tersebut dan dengan enggan mempromosikannya. Album studio keempat dan kelima Clarkson, All I Ever Wanted (2009) dan Stronger (2011), kembali ke nada yang lebih ringan dan suara pop rock, dengan yang pertama menjadi album nomor satu AS keduanya dan yang terakhir menjadikannya artis pertama yang memenangkan Grammy Award untuk Album Vokal Pop Terbaik dua kali. Kedua album tersebut menghasilkan singel nomor satu Hot 100: "Hidupku Akan Mengisap Tanpamu", yang memegang rekor lompatan terbesar ke nomor satu dalam sejarah tangga lagu, dan "Lebih Kuat (Apa yang Tidak Membunuhmu)", yang menjadi singel terlarisnya di seluruh dunia. Clarkson kemudian menjadi artis wanita Amerika pertama yang merilis album Natal terlaris tahun ini dengan Wrapped in Red (2013). Album studio ketujuhnya, Sepotong demi Sepotong (2015), memulai debutnya di nomor satu di AS, sementara judul lagunya mencapai sepuluh besar. Setelah meninggalkan RCA dan menandatangani kontrak dengan Atlantic pada tahun 2016, Clarkson merilis album kedelapannya yang dipengaruhi oleh jiwa, Meaning of Life (2017), yang dipromosikan oleh tur terlarisnya hingga saat ini. Dia kemudian merilis album studio kesembilan dan album Natal keduanya, When Christmas Comes Around... (2021). Clarkson telah menjual lebih dari 25 juta album dan 45 juta single di seluruh dunia. Dia memiliki 11 single sepuluh besar di AS, dan sembilan single sepuluh besar di Inggris, Kanada, dan Australia. Dia menjadi artis pertama dalam sejarah yang menduduki puncak tangga lagu pop, kontemporer dewasa, pop dewasa, country, dan tari Billboard. Clarkson juga menjabat sebagai pelatih di The Voice dari musim keempat belas hingga musim kedua puluh satu, dan sejak 2019, menjadi pembawa acara talkshow-nya sendiri, The Kelly Clarkson Show. Di antara berbagai penghargaannya, Clarkson telah menerima tiga MTV Video Music Awards, empat American Music Awards, dua Academy of Country Music Awards, dan tiga Daytime Emmy Awards. Billboard memuji Clarkson sebagai "salah satu penyanyi musik pop terhebat", dan menghormatinya dengan Powerhouse Award, sementara VH1 menempatkannya di peringkat kesembilan belas dalam daftar 100 Wanita Terhebat dalam Musik.

Kelly Brianne (born April 24, 1982), known professionally as Kelly Clarkson, is an American singer, songwriter, actress, author, and television personality. She rose to fame after winning the first season of American Idol in 2002, which earned her a record deal with RCA. Her debut single, "A Moment Like This", topped the US Billboard Hot 100, and became the country's best selling single of 2002. It was included on her debut studio album, Thankful (2003), which debuted atop the Billboard 200. Trying to reinvent her image, Clarkson parted ways with Idol management and shifted to pop rock for her second studio album, Breakaway (2004). Supported by four US top-ten singles – the title track, "Since U Been Gone", "Behind These Hazel Eyes", and "Because of You" – Breakaway sold over 12 million copies worldwide and won two Grammy Awards. Clarkson took further creative control for her third studio album, My December (2007), co-writing all of its tracks and becoming its executive producer. However, her label was dissatisfied with the album's darker rock music and promoted it reluctantly. Clarkson's fourth and fifth studio albums, All I Ever Wanted (2009) and Stronger (2011), returned to a lighter tone and pop rock sound, with the former becoming her second US number-one album and the latter making her the first artist to win the Grammy Award for Best Pop Vocal Album twice. Both albums spawned a Hot 100 number-one single: "My Life Would Suck Without You", which holds the record for the biggest jump to number one in the chart's history, and "Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You)", which became her best-selling single worldwide. Clarkson then became the first American female artist to release the best-selling Christmas album of the year with Wrapped in Red (2013). Her seventh studio album, Piece by Piece (2015), debuted at number-one in the US, while its title track reached the top ten. After leaving RCA and signing with Atlantic in 2016, Clarkson released her soul-influenced eighth album, Meaning of Life (2017), which was promoted by her highest-grossing tour to date. She went on to release her ninth studio album and second Christmas album, When Christmas Comes Around... (2021). Clarkson has sold over 25 million albums and 45 million singles worldwide. She has 11 top-ten singles in the US, and nine top-ten singles in the UK, Canada, and Australia. She became the first artist in history to top each of Billboard's pop, adult contemporary, adult pop, country, and dance charts. Clarkson also served as a coach on The Voice from its fourteenth season to the twenty-first season, and since 2019, has hosted her own talk show, The Kelly Clarkson Show. Among her numerous accolades, Clarkson has received three MTV Video Music Awards, four American Music Awards, two Academy of Country Music Awards, and three Daytime Emmy Awards. Billboard has hailed Clarkson as "one of pop music's greatest singers", and honored her with the Powerhouse Award, while VH1 ranked her nineteenth on their list of the 100 Greatest Women in Music.
