Kelly Clarkson’s Candid Makeup-Free Selfie Is Beyond Refreshing

Kelly Clarkson recently showed off her glowing natural complexion in a refreshingly candid Instagram Live video. Fans, of course, are loving it! The “Mine” singer proudly flaunted her smooth, makeup-free skin in the clip, adorned with a rainbow Pride-themed filter. Not only did the Grammy winner share her radiant, natural beauty with her 6.8 million followers, but she also showed her support for LGBTQ fans.

The 41-year-old American Idol alum also shared the news that she won’t be adding any more tour dates this summer. Clarkson emphasized that due to her busy schedule, she will only be performing the shows that she previously announced for 2023.

In the video for her devotees, Clarkson donned a black baseball cap, a maroon jacket and black tee underneath. She wore her blonde tresses down and styled into cute pigtails. She accessorized her casual get-up with a black string necklace with a shiny statement charm.

“I love this. I was looking at the filters and it’s June! It’s pride month, ya’ll. So I was like, ‘alright with the rainbow,'” she said during the June 3rd post. The mom of two also revealed that her 8-year-old daughter River is “obsessed with rainbows” and that her 7-year-old son Remington likes “a bunch of color.” Clarkson shares both children with her ex Brandon Blackstock.

The talk show host then began answering fan questions, including one that read: “are you going on tour?” She replied: “Here’s the thing, this is why I announced the 10 shows in Vegas. I was not being like, ‘oh it’s a secret, we’ve got this huge tour we’re going to do right after.’ It’s not that situation.

Fans then began complimenting Clarkson’s natural beauty in the post comment section (as she often goes makeup-free in other IG videos). “I just love how real and down to earth this woman is,” one wrote as another added: “From this short video, she just feels like the most genuine celebrity or influencer.” Someone else chimed in: “I love you without makeup. Naturally beautiful.”

The “Breakaway” hitmaker continued to speak about her tour plans, adding: “I don’t know if y’all notice, but I have a 9 to 5-er. I have a job. It’s a lot of work and it takes time. I also have kids, they’re in school, so I get really tied down to those things.”

The “Because of You” singer did, add, however: “We are trying to figure out what the possibilities of those things are in certain parts of our calendar.”

She described her upcoming shows as “intimate, cool,” and having “rock and roll vibes.” Fans can’t wait to see!
