They then take turns singing a few lines solo before Clarkson coolly wraps up the duet. The audience gives a round of thunderous applause for Clarkson and Jelly Roll as they share a hug and smile.

The full performance is expected to air on the Oct. 16 episode of “The Kelly Clarkson Show.”

“I Am Not Okay,” from Jelly Roll’s 2024 album “Beautifully Broken,” soared to No. 2 on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart, while also moving to No. 17 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Country music history exploded in Nashville last night. Blake Shelton was halfway through his emotional song “Over You”—the one he used to sing with Miranda Lambert back when they were together—when the unthinkable happened. Miranda suddenly walked onto the stage, grabbed a mic, and started singing right beside him. The whole arena went dead silent. Blake didn’t move. His face said everything. And Gwen Stefani? Let’s just say her expression could’ve stopped time. What followed wasn’t just a duet—it was a moment so intense, so unexpected, that every country fan in the room knew they were witnessing something that would be talked about for years.

Kelly Clarkson doesn’t just sing Keith Urban’s classic—she blows the roof off the whole stage. From the very first line, she locks eyes with the camera like she’s telling the whole world, “Watch this.” And then she delivers. When the chorus hits, she launches into those high notes with that insane power only she has, turning a chill Sunday-morning song into a full-body goosebumps moment. Kelly can sing anything and make it feel brand new. It’s honestly shocking how much talent she has—like God just handed her a voice designed to stop time. She’s hands down the best singer to ever come out of American Idol, and every song she touches ends up as good as—or straight-up better than—the original. She’s a pure joy to listen to. Thank you, Kelly, for blessing our ears again!.. WATCH BELOW

He walked onstage like he always had. Smiling. Steady. Completely unaware it would be the last time. On June 5, 1993, Conway Twitty sang without farewell, without warning — carrying truth instead of perfection, gratitude instead of goodbyes. Some say his smile toward the band lingered… like a quiet thank you no one understood until it was too late. Hours later, he was gone. And suddenly, every note meant everything.

“John just sat there… smiling.” Paul McCartney didn’t always get instant approval from John Lennon — but this Beatles song was different. As Paul began writing it right in front of him, Lennon didn’t interrupt, didn’t criticize, and didn’t overthink it. He simply watched — and nodded. At a time when their tastes were already starting to drift apart, this quiet moment revealed how deep their creative chemistry still ran.
