Did Beyonce go over to Kelly afterwards, or am I just making things up.

I thought I saw them hug, but you couldn't really see it too far. It was as Bill was walking up the stairs. If that was Kelly.

I'd love it if we got a Beyonce and Kelly pic. OBV I cannot ask for anything more than that flawless performance, but that would be a second helping of cake (not even icing, the flawlessness was icing enough)

I can't even describe how shitty the audio was that I watched. That video posted above is like watching a different, otherworldly performance. She was sensational.

Obviously the last verse was Epic, but rewatching it made me appreciate the first couple verses as well. Her emotional delivery was perfect. Just, WOW!

Incredible! Just imagine how difficult it must be to sing like that live in front of the President, the nation, and in freezing temperatures, yet she makes it look so effortless.
What was it that Obama said to Kelly right after she sang?

www.motherjones.com/kevin-drum/2013/01/obama-gets-political-kelly-clarkson-wows-emObama Gets Political, Kelly Clarkson Wows 'Em —By Kevin Drum| Mon Jan. 21, 2013 9:21 AM PST I'd say that this was a more explicitly political inauguration speech than usual, with lots of shoutouts to specific political goals and partisan disagreements. I expect the Fox News set to hate it. Here are a few key excerpts: Our country cannot succeed when a shrinking few do very well and a growing many barely make it. The commitments we make to each other — through Medicare, and Medicaid, and Social Security — these things do not sap our initiative; they strengthen us. They do not make us a nation of takers; they free us to take the risks that make this country great. Our journey is not complete until our gay brothers and sisters are treated like anyone else under the law — for if we are truly created equal, then surely the love we commit to one another must be equal as well. Our journey is not complete until no citizen is forced to wait for hours to exercise the right to vote. Our journey is not complete until we find a better way to welcome the striving, hopeful immigrants who still see America as a land of opportunity. Some may still deny the overwhelming judgment of science, but none can avoid the devastating impact of raging fires, and crippling drought, and more powerful storms. The path towards sustainable energy sources will be long and sometimes difficult. But America cannot resist this transition; we must lead it. Our journey is not complete until all our children, from the streets of Detroit to the hills of Appalachia to the quiet lanes of Newtown, know that they are cared for, and cherished, and always safe from harm. Also: that was a helluva performance of America from Kelly Clarkson, wasn't it?

I think Beyonce did a great job but Kelly...Kelly, Kelly, Kelly. Kelly Clarkson. It was pitch-perfect.

Y'all know I love me some Kelly but there wasn't ONE part of that performance I enjoyed. It's sad that some people had to slam Beyonce (who, in my opinion, was flawless) in order to praise Kelly, especially THAT performance. Kelly has done SO much better vocally.

I don't like everything just because its Kelly C...but.. .....huh? Thats totally your opinion and thats TOTALLY ok....crazy...but ok ;P i kid

Who in here is slamming Beyonce? You may not have cared for it, but the performance was well received from fans and non fans alike, the praise is well warranted. It's certainly not coming from this supposed tearing down of Beyonce of which you speak.
