Kelly Clarkson is on the cover of the April 2009 issue of Blender magazine. My question to the magazine is “why would a magazine ask such dumb questions?” I’ll have to check out the issue to make sure they talked about her album while they were discussing her urinary habits and nudity.
Interestingly enough, she didn’t seem to be offended at all by these questions. That is what makes her so …. oddly normal!
Here are some tidbits from the interview:
On peeing in the shower:
“Anybody who says they don’t is lying.”
On taking pleasure in walking around naked:
“I’m the kinda person who just doesn’t like clothes.”
On blowing her nose and then checking the tissue to see what color the snot is:
“I mean, if you have a cold, you have to check, to see how sick you are.”
On the essence of her appeal:
“The thing with me, and my audience in particular is, people look at me like a sister or a daughter. It’s not like people look at me as unattainable, some kind of star like that. People love the ‘real’ factor that’s involved, I think.”
On being an open book and willing to “talk about anything”:
“I do not lie. Ever. I will tell my girlfriend if she looks fat in her jeans… When you don’t make yourself clear or heard, that’s where trouble starts. And that’s something I learned as a child. No one is going to know what you feel unless you tell them.”
