One of the very few Idol winners to have actually really made it after the show and gone on to become a household name. Kelly Clarkson truly is one of a kind!
She sang less than 20 seconds, that's all it took for them (and probably less time than that) to realize they have a superstar in front of them. Amazing.
It wasn't the singing. That's why she had to trick Randy by getting into a conversation about HIS career. (Letting him feel good about himself for a moment) From that point on, it was all politics, and had nothing to do with her voice, which.... IDK. Did she have any clue what key she picked, or what notes she was hitting? Paula knew it was a scam. Kelly was stepping into the business, playing the game, and the fact that it was filmed made it so that they couldn't go back. It could've been edited, but how do they fix that? Is she singing now? Oh, flirting with Ryan right off the bat, then relaying that jab from Simon. Icing.
Literally, has not changed AT ALL!!! 🥰 She’s still the same girl she was 20 years ago and I can’t get ENOUGH OF IT!! ❤️🥹 Just her trading spots with Randy was sooo good 😂😂😂😂
She just has that genuine REAL personality, self made and NOT NOT NOT Phony like so many stars. I think that's why she is so successful, she connects so well with the average fan. OBVIOUSLY her voice is truly AMAZING 🤯
Thank God Kelly tried out! She is by far one of the best, most natural, most impressive voices ever!!! I’m not surprised she has gone so far! This is one extraordinary woman with a beautiful, down to earth personality to match!
Kelly is a rare gem. The kind of person who deserves what she's earned and brings others along for the ride. I'm so thankful that the judges made the right choice on that day❤
not even she could have dreamed she would make it THIS BIG a decade later....huge music career, AND host of her own talk show ! This audition shows her to be one of the most sociable and lovable contestants in the show's history.
Using the fad word "literally" figuratively. 98% of those who use it, just like you, use it incorrectly, rendering the word (just like genius, epic, hero, and absolutely) meaningless.
General Yellor who gives a shit other than some dork with a stick up his ass like yourself? She’s using the word informally. Ex: General Yellor leads a miserably lonely existence. Literally
Wow. That blew me away. Kelly's command of the whole situation from the get-go? Unbelievable. You can plainly see why she is one of three to become superstars from this show.
@@TVComercialProducer but it's not like they edited it after she became famous or so what, they edited it after she perform so definitely they still have no idea how big she will be
@@etriganthedemon666 That edit and narration was actually from 2006, and therefore made 4 years after Kelly won American Idol in 2002 and become a star. Kelly's audition didn't actually air at all during her season. The season one audience didn't see her audition in Dallas or any of her performances during Hollywood Week. The producers, judges, etc. never highlighted her early on because they didn't see her as a favorite in the competition. America didn't hear her sing or get introduced to her until the live shows at top 30. And it wasn't until she was in the top 6 that the show aired a very short clip of her audition in her pre-performance package, but it didn't have any narration and you could barely hear her. The clip you actually see above is from American Idol Rewind, a show that re-edited and recapped the early seasons of American Idol. So 2006, when American Idol Rewind aired, was the first time they actually aired Kelly's audition and we saw that footage. So at that point in time, they brought back season 1 co-host Brian Dunkleman and various season 1 contestants to provide commentary on their experiences that season and that is when they added Brian's voiceover to Kelly's audition. So basically they already knew she won and became a big star when he said it - that was the joke. (Even without watching the entire original season of the show and/or American Idol Rewind, the fact that this audition and edit was made much later is actually evident in just the clip above because American Idol Rewind aired on CW (a network that didn't even exist until 2006), which is why you see that logo in the lower right-hand corner rather than the Fox logo which is where American Idol aired.)
Wow, you could see her personality shining right here in her audition. That personality and voice has her at bonafide SUPERSTAR level with her incredible music career and TV talk show host. Could NOT happen to a nicer person. So HAPPY for her 😉
Kelly bursts through the doors, points at Ryan: You need to redo your highlights Simon: Laughs The whole audition was adorable. She befriended the Judges before they gave her their verdict.
@@johndicksonkaraoke2554 that's not even how it works, the viewers vote for the winners. r u saying they rigged the vote? what would be the purpose of doing that? where's the evidence?
The fact this was her first audition and she seemed to get along with everyone so well. Shes a really likeable person and her personality has stayed the same after these years. It's so cool to see her then and now.
Kelly's audition just goes to show that manifesting and confidence gets you right where you want to be in life. She had a goal. She knew she would be able to reach it. So, the actual audition was just the the last task to reach her goal
Not exactly. That show groomed certain singers for success based upon their popularity with audiences. They also never had the telephone votes "certified" so theoretically they could declare anyone the winter. Kelly to her credit was popular with producers as well as with viewers.
Confident that she would succeed & equally respectful of the judges. She struck that right balance. Wasn't worried when Randy played around. Some would come off as rude. She just expressed a relaxed positive energy.
It's cool how many many people got to go on this Hollywood journey with Kelly. Make no mistake tho, nothing was handed to her. She put in the work, on her self, on her career, and she's still working hard! I adore her! She has brought so much realness, love, joy, expression, and INSANELY FANTASTIC VOCALS to SOOOOOO many songs. She is an American National Treasure and I sincerely hope I one day get to meet her. Not like meet and greet, like I'd wanna sit and chill with her and be so nervous I forget everything Id wanna ask her. lol. Haha! She's an icon, and like so many others, I absolutely adore her! LOVE YOU KELLY! GAWD I LOVE YOUR VOICE! (Side note, I remember when she was a guest mentor on idol and she told one of the contestants if they mess up, you better look at the audience like, "YOU'RE WELCOME" and I've never forgotten that. She just rocks! Like she rocks harder than most bands could ever hope to rock.) okay. I'm done obsessing over Kelly in this post, but trust and believe it continues in my real life. haha.
I have always loved Kelly Clarkson as a judge on The Voice. Extremely happy that she is back on that show this year! I cannot remember if I watched the season of AI, when Kelly was on it? I sure don't remember this audition. But her personality was just as awesome then, as it is today. So loved hearing her use the expressions of "Cool Beans" and "Score!"!!
She was living in her car at the time because her home had just burnt down. She didn't even know what A.I. was, either. She thought it was a local talent contest, and she was hoping for enough money to maybe get a motel for a few weeks. Turned out it was just a biiiiit more than that.
I remember this like it was yesterday. My husband who has now passed away said, "That girl is gonna win and be a big star. He was always right about these things. She really does have one of the most amazing voices and a down-to-earth beautiful soul. I just adore Kelly Clarkson.
Sorry about your husband. Watching these videos from back in the day reminds me of how things were better back then. Just seems like yesterday but to think it was almost a quarter of a century ago, nostalgia
@@paigerenee4173When you say everyone does that include the very many other people in the comments who stated that they hadn't heard it before and/ or was confused by the phrase? Just curious.
It's funny and amazing how she took the far left judge seat here and today she's an actual singing judge on The Voice and sits in the far left chair. She literally created her own future.
She is the whole package. A voice that is 1 in a million, total confidence and ease in the spotlight and a personality that just makes you want to give her a hug and be your good friend!
And 20 years later, she's a judge on her own and very big time singer and artist. Wait a minute, it's been 20 years since her audition? Damn, where does the time go?
This is so cool to watch again! She had such great confidence and self-esteem, but without coming off as cocky at all. Just genuinely herself. It's refreshing to see personalities like hers in a sea of self righteous, self obsessed jerks.
