Kelly Clarkson, the renowned singer, recently shared her decision to keep her children from watching a particular film from her past. At her final Las Vegas concert, the 44-year-old revealed she does not want her daughter River Rose, 12, or son Remington, 10, to view “From Justin to Kelly,” a film she starred in back in 2003.
During the concert, Clarkson humorously described the film as “Oscar-worthy” before explaining she participated due to being “contractually obligated.” This movie, in which Clarkson co-starred with Justin Guarini, was released following her win on the inaugural season of “American Idol.” The storyline revolves around two young people meeting and falling in love during spring break.
Read the fine print, you know,” Clarkson advised her audience. She mentioned her surprise at being required to make a movie upon winning, reflecting on the experience with some regret.
Clarkson also candidly shared her less-than-favorable view of the film itself. When a fan at the concert expressed affection for the movie, Clarkson responded lightheartedly, acknowledging they may be seeing it with “loving eyes.” She did not shy away from calling the film “s—” and noted her children’s lack of exposure to it.
Despite her criticisms, Clarkson found a silver lining, saying, “The music part, that was fun.” This aspect allowed her to find some joy during the project. Ultimately, Clarkson expressed a philosophy of finding positivity, joking about handling less-than-ideal situations.
“From Justin to Kelly” premiered a year after Clarkson’s “American Idol” victory. Though Clarkson looks back on the experience with mixed feelings, it remains a notable part of her career timeline.
