Something is looking a little, er, different about Kelly Clarkson lately.
She just called out The Voice for editing her chest in a way that makes us love her even more.
RELATED STORIES
Kelly Clarkson has always been a champion for body positivity.
Whether she’s embracing her body at any size, defending herself and others from body-shamers, or simply spreading the word about this important subject, she’s a true hero in her own right.
Doing so has made her super relatable to fans who understand the importance of self-love and body acceptance.
One time, she even cracked fans up by tweeting about hating working out.
Same, girl.
“This just in,” she tweeted in November 2018.
“I still hate working out. I’m sweaty, red, and not any thinner. People say it’s good for your heart…. but people also say red wine is good for your heart. I mean, I’m just stating facts here people. Who am I to ignore science?!”
She’s there to clapback against body-shamers as well, even when they’re not coming for her.
For example, she recently defended Food Network host, Valerie Bertinelli, after someone called her “chubby.”
Kelly was able to get her point across without tearing someone else down. #Goals.
Since she’s so comfortable in her skin, she can also poke fun at herself every once in a while!
This was made more than evident recently when the promotional photos from the upcoming season of The Voice were released.
Kelly saw the pic and immediately noticed something a little ~bigger~ about herself.
“I feel like this is what I would look like with a boob job,” she joked. “I don’t know why my chest looks enormous in this pic but thank you to the Universe for this one ha!”
She was *so* cool about the whole thing:
“Finally!” she wrote, along with a laughing emoji. “I also feel like all I need is a cape and then I’m ready to save some civilians y’all!”
Fans agreed with Clarkson looking like a gorgeous superhero.
“You are literally a breath of fresh air. Your personality is contagious, and I’m here for it!” replied a fan.
One fan even added another touch-up to the already-touched-up pic:
She is so deserving of that cape.
To give you a look at how her body really looked before editing, here’s a vid:
It’s obvious that things have been lifted up.
While fans joked along with Kelly, they also questioned why the show felt the need to alter her body in the first place.
“The Voice reinforcing sexism,” another user added.
After all, the singer has always spoken out against the editing software.
“They have definitely photo-shopped the crap out of me,” she wrote on her blog about the cover of her “All I Ever Wanted” album.
Then, when she appeared on the cover of “Self” in 2009, fans noticed that Kelly’s body had been heavily altered.
This angered fans to no end, especially because of how much Kelly talked about loving her body during the interview.
Not to mention, how that month’s issue was called “Total Body Confidence”
“My happy weight changes. Sometimes I eat more; sometimes I play more. I’ll be different sizes all the time. When people talk about my weight, I’m like, ‘You seem to have a problem with it; I don’t. I’m fine!’” she said.
“I’ve never felt uncomfortable on the red carpet or anything,” Clarkson, 27, told Self .
We seriously love her and everything she stands for! #TeamKelly all the way.
The Voice Season 18 debuts on Monday, Feb. 24.
Clarkson will be joined by fellow coaches John Legend, Blake Shelton, and new arrival, Nick Jonas!
