Kelly Clarkson Performs on Saturday Night Live - Video

Posted: 15 Mar 2009 09:17 PM PDT

American Idol season one winner, Kelly Clarkson, performed two songs off of her new album All I Ever Wanted during her appearance on Saturday Night Live yesterday.  I have to say that, as a plus-size woman myself, I'm perfectly fine with Kelly's weight but I do wish that she could find some more flattering clothing.  This blue shirt/dress/disaster did not look good on her in my opinion but I digress…

Kelly first performed "My Life Would Suck Without You" and I thought she sounded pretty good but one of her backup singers seemed to be struggling a little bit from what I could hear.

She also sang "I Do Not Hook Up" and I really like that song and was happy that it translated well in the live performance.  Watch and tell me what you think!
