Kelly Clarkson Personal Quotes

  • On boys: "You need to establish yourself before you let someone else in - I'm still finding myself".
  • I'm petite but I was the biggest girl on my season. Everyone else weighed 100 pounds. Reporters would ask, 'So what's it like being a big girl?' and I thought, 'Big? What?' It was like, 'Wait, what am I doing wrong?' Luckily, I had a great mom and dad who helped me grow up feeling comfortable in my own skin. I have a curvy figure, which guys like. And performing isn't about looking the best or being the most beautiful. I do it because I love it. Look, nobody else has my butt. Nobody has my eyes. Nobody has my nose. It's all mine. And that's what makes me different from everyone.
  • I'm only 27, not 40 and still single! I enjoy being single, I love work and I think people are so passive with relationships and I'm not that person.
  • I'm an extremist, I'm either in a relationship or I'm not. I'm honest about it and I'll tell people, it's just there's nothing to tell. I have a very good life."
  • I love my body. I'm very much OK with it. I don't think artists are ever the ones who have the problem with their weight, it is other people.
  • The rumors are not helping me on the dating front! I prefer the boys. I'm extremely flattered when I do get hit on by girls, and I think it's hot, but I'm not into it. I like boys.
  • [on taking criticism from the judges] I come from a very sarcastic and loving family at the same time, but I'm very thick-skinned. So, it's really not going to affect me to an extent. I really feel for the people that it does.
