Kelly Clarkson, the beloved pop star and television personality, has been embroiled in a tumultuous legal battle with her ex-husband, Brandon Blackstock, since their separation in 2020. The couple's split has been anything but amicable, involving heated disputes over finances, child custody, and even professional misconduct allegations. Clarkson, who filed for divorce after seven years of marriage, has faced numerous legal hurdles, but the latest developments in their ongoing feud have taken the drama to a new level.
The legal drama intensified when Clarkson accused Blackstock, who also served as her manager, of unethical business practices. In 2022, a California labor commissioner ruled that Blackstock had overcharged Clarkson by millions of dollars during his tenure as her manager, ordering him to repay her over $2.6 million. This ruling was a significant victory for Clarkson, but it was far from the end of their legal woes.
In March 2024, Clarkson filed a new lawsuit accusing Blackstock and his father's management firm, Starstruck Entertainment, of violating California's Talent Agencies Act by acting as an unlicensed talent agency. She demanded the return of all commissions, fees, and profits earned from deals negotiated during their marriage, including high-profile contracts with "The Voice" and Wayfair.
