Kelly Clarkson Gets All Metal On Us

In a highly entertaining video of a performance of metal rock tribute band Metal Skool at LA’s Key Club, they “drag” Kelly Clarkson and new boyfriend Ryan “lead singer of Yellowcard” Key up on stage and do a rendition of “Sweet Child Of Mine” and later “Don’t Stop Believing”. Wearing a school girl-ish white shirt with Peter Pan collar and sweater vest, she looks totally out of place onstage with all the metal hair and spandex.

If it was truly spontaneous and not some organized PR stunt, Kelly was a pretty great sport about the whole thing, even swigging straight from a bottle of whiskey–and she sounded AWESOME btw. The most fun (and most talented) American Idol, for sure! I love her.
