Kelly Clarkson Admits Decision To Divorce Was ‘A Hard Pill To Swallow’ (Exclusive)

Kelly Clarkson is getting honest about her album “Chemistry” and the personal ties it has to her life. In a new interview with Access Hollywood, the “Stronger” singer reflected on writing her latest music and which song speaks to her the most. “The hardest one to write, but the one I like a little bit more than the others is ‘Lighthouse.’ It’s a really intense song for me and it was kind of me figuring out, just finalizing what I was going to do and it had come to the conclusion that it wasn’t going to work, you know, so that was a really hard…it was just a really hard pill to swallow honestly when you when you love someone so intensely. That’s probably my favorite right now on the album,” she said. Many of Kelly’s new songs are rumored to be inspired by her recent divorce from Brandon Blackstock and the superstar explained that as an artist she feels like it’s a gift to be able to heal through her music. The “American Idol” alum is next heading to Las Vegas for an anticipated residency and she told Access that the “storyteller kind of vibe” of her show will be intimate and relaxed. “Chemistry” is out now and Kelly’s Las Vegas residency, “Chemistry: An Intimate Evening” runs from July 28 to August 19 at the Bakkt Theater at Planet Hollywood.
