It’s been lower than a yr since we final noticed Blake Shelton and Kelly Clarkson share the display, as they each appeared on the cowboy’s closing season of The Voice. The chemistry artist positively hasn’t misplaced any of the aggressive spirit that fueled her rivalry with Shelton, which she proved on the Season 2 premiere of Barmageddon, the present created by the cowboy and The Voice host Carson Daly. The episode noticed a spirited Clarkson making jokes about her divorce, as she hurled axes at a goal throughout a hilariously intense competitors with Michelle Rodriguez.
Kelly Clarkson and Blake Shelton have been recognized to troll one another fairly exhausting as coaches on The Voice, however once they reunited for his recreation present on USA Community, it was all enjoyable and video games (and photographs), because the American Idol OG confronted off in opposition to The Quick and the Livid star Michelle Rodriguez. Throughout Drunken Axehole, Kelly Clarkson appeared to channel among the pent-up rage of her break up from Brandon Blackstock, as she hurled axes at a goal with startling power. After the primary spherical, her civilian associate commented on her ferocity, asking, “Kelly, who harm you?” To which Clarkson replied:
You recognize what? There’s an entire report about it. It was dangerous. It was not nice.
She was, in fact, speaking about her album chemistry, which was launched in June and comprises apparently solely a fraction of the loopy variety of songs she wrote after her marriage ended. It took almost two years for Kelly Clarkson and Brandon Blackstock to agree on phrases that included custody and youngster assist for his or her two kids and possession of Clarkson’s Montana ranch and different property.
Axe-throwing appeared to be fairly the therapeutic expertise, and I’d think about that was very true of Barmageddon’s amped up model, which included carrying “beer goggles” and likewise hurling noticed blades. Kelly Clarkson admitted as a lot to Carson Daly, saying:
It feels excellent, the discharge.
Launch and therapeutic appear to be issues that Kelly Clarkson has actively sought out since her divorce. The Emmy Award-winning host of The Kelly Clarkson Present has opened up about needing to make modifications to her life. For one factor, she modified her authorized identify to Kelly Brianne and made the choice to relocate her speak present to the East Coast.
She additionally give up The Voice, and her feedback about how she was struggling on the present and didn’t “really feel like smiling” anymore makes me suppose Season 23 wasn’t simply Blake Shelton’s closing rodeo on the singing competitors, however Kelly Clarkson’s as nicely. As unlucky as that’s for longtime followers of The Voice like me, I used to be simply blissful to see the 2 of them palling round with Carson Daly one final time on Barmageddon.
The Voice crossovers don’t finish there, both. Gwen Stefani is ready to go head-to-head along with her husband when Barmageddon returns subsequent Monday, November 20, at 11 p.m. ET on USA Community.
