Rolling Stones Interview:
Quote:
In March, Kelly Clarkson's Piece by Piece became the singer's third LP to top the Billboard*200. It's also the final installment in the six-album deal she signed with RCA Records immediately after winning American Idol's first season, in 2002. Clarkson says she's loving her new freedom. "Man, I have no frigging clue what's coming next, but it's going to be fun," she says, calling from her Nashville home. "I haven't ever been able to pick who to work with as an artist, so it's nice now that it's a choice. It'll be cool to 'Breakaway,' for lack of a better term, and see what's out there. If I want to make a country record, I'll make a country record. If I want to make an R&B record, I'll make that. I've made enough money in my career. This is just the cherry on top."
So does this mean that you can finally burn all the existing copies of From Justin to Kelly?
No, I think I would have to own it first. But that is something I will look into. I have a little joke with our nanny, because she told me she loves that movie. She was like, "My roommate and I used to watch it all the time! I'm totally going to show your daughter From Justin to Kelly." I'm like, "I will fire you."
You went back to Idol recently as a guest mentor. Would you ever consider rejoining the show on a more permanent basis as a judge? [Ed. Note: This interview took place before the announcement that Idol will end after its next season.]
I actually love the mentoring process. It was nostalgic to be there – it was the same hallway that I was warming up in 13 years ago, when I was 19. It did make me feel a little old. But it was really cool. When I went on that show, I thought maybe I would end up being a backup singer for someone. So I couldn't have wished for more.
Would you really consider making an R&B album, or was that just an example?
People always tell me I should do a covers album because of all the fan requests I do at shows – from Foo Fighters to Coldplay to Patsy Cline. And on the radio right now, you have everything from Sam Smith to Zedd to Tove Lo. There's a little bit of everything, and that's cool.
