All The Things Going South In Kelly Clarkson's Life In 2020

Kelly Clarkson is the queen of vocals who is not only a remarkable singer but a talented songwriter, an author, and a host of her own show. She is a celebrity with a lot of successes under her belt. But the year 2020 has not been so kind to Kelly Clarkson's life and things have been going south in her life for the past few months.

Kelly Clarkson is a diva we all had a crush on when we were young

Kelly has a lot of successes under her belt and is a queen of vocals but few know that there is a lot of tragedy in her life

From singer to songwriter to author, this woman has done it all

Her latest venture is on the show America’s Got Talent as a judge whilst Simon Cowell recovers from his broken back.

She is working alongside judges Sofia Vergara, Heidi Klum, and Howie Mandel

She is an icon and the Internet can't stop gushing over this talented woman

Behind the scenes, very few people know the hardships this woman has faced in her life

This woman suffers from an underlying health condition

For the past many years, people have noticed Kelly's fluctuating weight

However, back in 2018 Kelly revealed her health struggles

Kelly has had a lifelong struggle with an unspecified autoimmune disease

She also suffers from thyroid issue which means her thyroid gland doesn't produce enough of the correct hormones

Symptoms include weight gain and fatigue

Kelly manages her condition through diet to avoid medications that carry side effects with it

I put a purple streak in my daughter’s hair today and I swear to you she thinks she is as cool as Prince now 🤣 Full on air guitar, singing at the top of her lungs, that is what’s happening... and before I get attacked for being the worst mom ever, it’s safe, organic paint 🙄

"I know the industry loves the weight gone, but I mean, for me, it wasn't really the weight," she explained.

“For me it was like, I’m not on my medicine anymore. My bloodwork came back, and I haven’t been on my medicine since like February.”

Apart from the health issues, Kelly has been a center of many controversies too

In one episode of America’s Got Talent, Clarkson came under fire for one reason, in particular.

In a recent episode, fans were furious with Kelly. The reason? Her poor in taste mimicking of fellow judge Sofia Vergara’s accent.

“And she made fun of Sofia’s accent again tonight. No cool Kelly Clarkson. If this was meant as a joke, then I hope you alert people to this ahead of time,” wrote one Twitter user.

And oh this is not the only time Kelly has faced criticism

She has been criticized openly on Twitter for her parenting style

"People are like, you know, they think that’s wrong or something, but I find nothing wrong with spanking."

This isn't the only time Kelly got criticized for her parenting style

She was also attacked by mom-shamers earlier this year

It seems like 2020 is not set to make things any easy for Kelly this year

As on September 25th, she made a very sad announcement

The two even shared, two kids.

But in 2020, they cited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for their split.

"As you probably know, 2020 has brought a lot of change also to my personal life," Kelly explained.

"What I'm dealing with is hard. It involves more than just my heart, it involves a lot of little hearts.”

"We know the best thing here is to protect our children and their little hearts."

“So I’m usually very open and I usually talk about everything but in this case I will talk a little bit here and there about how it affects me personally.”

"But probably won't go too far into it because I'm a mama bear and my kids come first."

Though Kelly has promised that her next album will be her 'most personal one' so far. 

To add more to her woes, she is also suffering from professional problems

Because it's just been announced that Kelly is being sued by her record company.

She allegedly owes millions of dollars in unpaid commissions

The lawsuit claims Kelly broke an oral contract

“Over the course of approximately 13 years, Starstruck developed Clarkson into a mega superstar,” it claims.

The issues goes on and on

“By way of example only, Starstruck was instrumental in helping Clarkson achieve success in terms of numerous hit albums, multiple Grammy wins and nominations, her role on popular television shows like The Voice and her own talk show.”

"Despite Starstruck’s hard work and dedication, Clarkson has decided she is going to stop paying Starstruck for what is contractually owed."

And to make things messier. Starstruck management group is owned by Kelly's former father in law.

The lawsuit reports by the end of the year, she'll owe more than $5 million.

With health problems, parenting issues, impending divorce, and now this lawsuit, we hope that Kelly is coping well with life currently!
