“People say that shit. They say it all the time to people in the industry,” said the singer in Las Vegas. “I’m like, ‘This is not normal. You’ve normalized crazy.'”
While performing during her Studio Sessions residency in Las Vegas, Kelly Clarkson recalled a time in her career when a former manager told her to get plastic surgery for her breasts — to which she rightly fired back at the time.
“I had some dick manager one time tell me to get a boob job,” Kelly told the crowd in a video shared by Entertainment News. “I was like, ‘Why don’t you get a dick job?’” she continued, eliciting cheers from the audience. “Like, what? I’m fine with my itty-bitty titties! Get out of here. Driving your big old car, making up for it.”
“But I just was like, ‘Who says that shit?’ People say that shit! They say it all the time to people in the industry,” Clarkson said. “They say the craziest shit, and I’m like, ‘This is not normal! You’ve normalized crazy!’ Everybody out here looking like they’re in the Capitol in Hunger Games.”
“Calm down, just get old,” she added. “Be glad — Not everybody gets to get old, you know what I’m saying?”
Clarkson announced her Vegas residency earlier this year and performed eight gigs at the Colosseum. The singer had to step away in early August after revealing that her ex-husband, Brandon Blackstock, was ill. Blackstock died on Aug. 7, with the cause later revealed to skin cancer.
She returned to the stage on Friday, marking her first full performance since his death, and previously announced a new set of summer 2026 dates.
