Talk show host and original American Idol Kelly Clarkson has revealed that a former manager once suggested she get a breast enhancement. Clarkson, 43, won the TV talent show in 2002 and has scored hits with “Since U Been Gone,” “Breakaway,” “My Life Would Suck Without You,” and “Stronger.” Clarkson made the revelation during her Las Vegas residency. “I had some d--k manager one time tell me to get a boob job,” she said. “I was like, ‘Why don’t you get a d--k job?’ Like, what? I’m fine with my itty-bitty t--ies! Get out of here.” Clarkson, who had postponed the residency after the shock death of her ex-husband, Brandon Blackstock, in August, shared her thoughts with the audience without naming the ex-manager. “Who says that s--t? People say that s--t. They say it all the time to people in the industry. They say the craziest s--t. I’m like, This is not normal. You’ve normalized crazy.” The singer continued, telling people to do what pleases themselves, not others. “Do you. Don’t make me do you. I like my itty-bitty t---ies. They’ve served me well.” Blackstock died aged just 48, after a battle with cancer. He is the father of her two children, River Rose, 11, and Remington Alexander, aged 9. The pair divorced in 2020.
