Kelly Clarkson Is ‘Feeling So Confident and Good in Her Skin’ Since Reaching Her Weight Loss ‘Goal’
Kelly Clarkson’s TV career is going strong, and she is in the shape of her life right now, so she’s been treating herself to a classy new style makeover in order to fit in with the Manhattan movers and shakers, a source exclusively dishes to Life & Style.
“She and her stylist have been having the best time, they’re great friends, so it’s truly a good time picking out pieces and putting looks together,” adds the source of the American Idol alum. “And it’s even more fun now that Kelly is at her goal weight, she looks good in everything.”
“She’s also feeling so confident and good in her skin, they have fashion shows every week where she tries all the stuff on and they decide what to keep and what goes back and it’s something she now looks forward to,” the source continues.
Flaunting her new look has been the “absolute best feeling” after she struggled with “putting on all that weight and being so poorly treated” by her ex Brandon Blackstock, who she divorced in March 2022, the source explains.
“Her self-esteem was not good. But now she’s putting effort into herself and all the energy she once put into her marriage is going to her and she’s thriving,” the source says. “And she wants her wardrobe to show that off and her slimmed down body too. She has a great waistline again, she’s giddy and wants to flaunt it.”
On a May 2024 episode of The Kelly Clarkson Show, the “Since U Been Gone” singer revealed that she lost “a lot” of weight by taking medication and changing her diet after she found out that she was prediabetic – but she clarified it was not the popular type 2 diabetes drug Ozempic.
“Mine is a different one than people assume, but I ended up having to do that too because my bloodwork got so bad,” she explained at the time, noting it was “something that aids in helping break down the sugar—obviously my body doesn’t do it right.”
Kelly also candidly revealed that she was 203 pounds at her “heaviest,” but that she had been “happy” and hadn’t felt “insecure” about it at the time.
The television show host has since lost around 60 pounds and has been showing off her sense of style and stunning figure with new makeup and fashion looks.
In a February installment of her talk show, Kelly rocked a tailored, brown mini dress with sheer black tights and a matching pair of chunky heels while talking with guests Christina Ricci and Danny Ramirez.
In March, Kelly looked gorgeous in a button-up polka dot top and black leather pants that emphasized her waist during an episode featuring guests Eva Longoria and Paulina Chavez. A few days later, she rocked a bold red lipstick as she smiled for the camera next to The Residence stars Randall Park and Uzo Aduba while wearing a floral print black top and blue jeans in a post shared by The Kelly Clarkson Show’s official Instagram on March 27.
