The world of "American Idol" is full of drama, and even the most successful alumni seem to be caught in the whirlwind. Kelly Clarkson, the inaugural "Idol" winner, has been battling rumors of a feud with fellow "Idol" queen Carrie Underwood for years. However, during a recent appearance on "Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen," Kelly Clarkson decided to set the record straight.
"I Know Where You're Going With This"
During a segment where fans could ask questions, one viewer began their question by referencing the supposed rivalry between Clarkson and Underwood.
Before the fan could even finish their question, Kelly Clarkson interrupted, "I know where you're going with this. People always pit us together, and we don't even know each other well enough to be pitted against each other." She added, "We've run into each other a handful of times. There's no beef between us. There's nothing. We don't know each other."
While Clarkson's statement aimed to dispel the rumors, it actually sparked an awkward moment. The fan, taken aback by Clarkson's assumption, quickly clarified that their question was actually about Clarkson's interview with Underwood on her daytime talk show in 2021.
