What would you do if Kelly were obese or actually liked. Ring thicker? Seriously, I'm a fan but I don't want her to be rail thin. Some of the comments are disgraceful.

And this is why I pushed so hard for someone to start a new thread. Did not want this messing up my perfect WIR era. But anyway... No shade, but I hope she doesn't use the pregnancy as an excuse to remain heavy afterwards. But Kelly has always had a cavalier attitude toward maintaining her weight even when acknowledging that the constant focus on it hurt her feelings, so saying this is like saying "I hope that the most physically and mentally exhausting thing a woman can possibly experience in her life somehow results in her having the energy to behave like a completely different person." Merely thinking about it is making me tired and I don't ever plan on having kids. I don't expect her to become a white Klump but I also would not expect her to try to lose the weight right away in two seconds like most celebs do. That's just not how she operates. Also, the weight is really only an issue if she pulls a Jessica Simpson and gains a ridiculous amount. Assuming her pregnancy weight gain is normal, she can take her time losing it, especially if she drops out of the public eye for a little while after giving birth. This will be a late spring/early summer baby, so there is time for her to put the country album out at the end of the year. It's a side project so I kind of don't care what timetable or promotional schedule she is on with that. I expect the latter half of this year to be Adele dominated so in a way I'm kind of glad the pop album will likely be pushed back to 2015.

The total should have ended with her higher too but I think it eventually will be. Just not THIS season.

I'm just hoping she actually keeps the separation of a pop album and a country album. She hasn't had a decent flow in her albums since BA, imo. I want to listen to pop songs like WDKY/DS/Honestly, and have them not be followed with faux-country shit like BYOH. If she wants those tracks on the POP record, well that's why there's bonus tracks and deluxe editions. I don't want cuntry Kelly on her last pop album.

^ last pop album? Did I miss something?
I partly agree with the flow thing!
The biggest fails are 'Be Still' after 'Haunted' and 'Save You' between 'If I Can't Have You' and 'Whyyawannabringmedown' & 'Standing In Front Of You' also feels out of place.
A good tracklist might be the solution!

^Are they still willfully ignoring the Christian sales or did that become a moot point and I can unapologetically brag with stan confidence?

I don't know where they get the numbers but I swear we saw something last week that showed the Robertsons with a very healthy lead. The numbers with Kelly on top must come before Christian sales? Hey, I say we take it. The Robertsons used bigotry and hate to fuel sales, so Kelly will even the playing field by having some of their sales ignored. haha

A new year, a new era: great opening to the new era, franklin- Thanks for starting this ! Billboard posts their complete charts tomorrow at 9am EST. I am fairly certain they will comment on what the 'Best Selling Christmas Album of 2013' is.

I know this is totally irrelevant, and all I want is a healthy baby for Kelly, but I wonder if the babe will be Clarkson-Blackstock, or just Blackstock? I think it'd be so cute to have a future Clarkson for mama Clarkson to pass the Pop throne to.

Kelly seems pretty traditional like that. I think the baby will be Blackstock. Kelly's legal name may even be Blackstock. Has she said? A lot of celebrities professionally go by their known name but do change their name when married, just legally and not professionally.

She did Divas again in 2012 when she performed Catch My Breath (the one where Adam Lambert somehow got the hosting gig haha) Grammy nomination for Don't Rush ft Vince Gill for Best Country Duo/Group Performance for 2014 Not that it's that exciting but still notable as she doesn't get nominations as easily anymore: People Like Us got a nomination at the 2013 VMAs for Best Video With A Message (Kelly's second nomination in that category after Dark Side) Anyways for the 7th album, I would really like some of those pop collaborations to come to fruition. I have no idea why no one outside the Country genre (bar Jewel and Robbie Williams) have asked her to collaborate for a track. She has an amazing set of pipes and any artist would be very lucky to have her sing the hook for their songs (like for a rap or dance track). I mean look what Kelly has done for Jason Aldean with Don't You Wanna Stay and Reba's version of Because of You? I really hope any collaborations really do come into fruition because two failed attempts with Chris Daughtry for two albums in a row is not acceptable lol. In my personal list of collaborators, I'd love if Kelly collaborated with any of the following artists: P!nk, Bruno Mars, Lil Wayne, B.o.B, Ludacris, Adele, Olly Murs, Carrie Underwood, Calvin Harris, Avicii, Little Big Town, Pharrell, Drake, John Legend or Justin Timberlake. Especially while she's pregnant or after she has the baby, it would be smart for her to hop on another artist's track as a feature just to keep her name out there. She wouldn't need to put crazy amounts of time for promo or slim down that drastically for just one song. Christina Aguilera (despite her recent flop eras) has started to do more collaborations with Lady Gaga, A Great Big World, Pitbull and previously with T.I. and others. If Xtina can manage to be asked to be featured on a song, I often wonder why Kelly hasn't been asked considering she's one of the nicest most down to earth and easily approached artists out there compared to Christina who has been known supposedly for being difficult. Would love to hear some opinions from the other Expressers and their opinions on this! Sorry for the lengthy post, I'm not an avid poster, just a reader but figured I'd weigh in with my opinion

I totally agree. I think she needs to hop on a hot EDM song pronto. Hailey Williams, Sia, Christina, Ellie Goulding... She would fit right in. And I would love for her to collaborate with Eminem. She seems like a fan, and his brother was at one of her shows IIRC. She would sound amazing on something like The Monster or LTWYL.
Another dream duet would be Coldplay. She sounded so amazing on Princess of China. I hope they took notice. Kelly always shows so much love to other artists, speaks highly of them when she covers their songs, and I need that love to be reciprocated like ASAP.
At the least Demi Lovato. She is a Kelly stan, and has practically been begging to do a song together. It would be a cute Britney/Miley moment for Demi to do a song with her idol.

I am so hopeful that Kelly will get to release another Christmas album in the near future (maybe a few years down the road). She had one of the top selling albums of the season, it seems like such an easy cashcow for the label if they need it. I need new Kelly Christmas music forever.

Maybe this is a crazy fan wish, but I want her on a rock/alternative song. She has never been number on either chart and I want her to be number one on all charts muahahahhaha. So I would love to see her her duet with Coldplay Weezer Imagine Dragons Fun. Green Day or American Authors
On the other spectrum, I would like to see her get number one on Rnb/Rap/rhythmic stations. So I would love to see her duet with Drake Miguel Frank Ocean Eminem
* the bolded ones are the ones that should happen and are more likely. The others would just be really cool.

This is all speculations, but I think the reason Kelly hasn't gotten a big pop collaboration yet depends on the artist in question. It's certainly not for lack of trying on her part, she actually got borderline desperate at one point in talking about how much she wanted to work with other artists. She seems to fit so naturally with the country crowd even though she's not trying to permanently root herself there, it really is no wonder so many of them love the idea of working with her. Her personality, singing style, and type of work ethic naturally meshes with most other country singers; from the outside they tend not to be as hung up on star status; and it seems easier for her to coordinate schedules with them. With pop though I believe it's a combination of schedules not lining up, most pop artists only considering collaborations from a super-smash-potential point of view, and the fact that Kelly could sing almost anyone under the table. Based on the things Kelly herself has said it seems that her interest in reaching out to other people started in 2009-10, so coming off the AIEW era she might not have seemed like the 'coolest' person to work with. That probably isn't an issue now, but if I were a singer I still wouldn't want to sing with Kelly - because I'd be too afraid of ME looking like the uncool one and being embarrassed! I remember debating sending a tape to Duets but I never would have picked her as my choice of duet partner b/c I just...whatever slim chance I would have had of being chosen would have evaporated when comparing my voice to hers. I hope that doesn't sound like me being a conceited fan, I think it's just reality; pop stars tend to be simultaneously vain and insecure, and mixed with being in an inherently competitive genre, if one is the type of person to feel even the least bit threatened or to turn a duet into a vocal sparring match, then a collaboration with Kelly is not a good idea. I think P!nk respects and likes Kelly as an artist but as a fellow Virgo I sense that she is a bit put out by Kelly's unbridled Taurean openness lol. So there may be a little of that as well, and yet another reason Kelly ends up working with country artists all the time - she might just be too damn friendly for her own good. Pop is not really a friendly genre b/c of the above competitiveness and vanity I mentioned, and Kelly has talked about that before as well, regarding the difference between pop and country award shows. If they won't even speak to people outside of their circles at an award show I cannot imagine how hard it is to get to know someone well enough any other time and work out something. I think a lot of collaborations end up being label-arranged for this very reason, so Kelly should probably aim to work with other Sony artists and let the execs do most of the work for her. I do wish she would work with Demi, that is one where Kelly is the one holding things up instead of the other way around b/c if Kelly called her at 2 in the morning Demi would be in Nashville by 4:30 lol. I'm not quite sure what type of song I want for them but for some reason a soundtrack single is what I see working best. I kind of want a Carrie duet but the fan wars would be such a mess, and it's all but a given that it would be a non-crossover country song. She has enough of that. I'm still holding out hope that something with Miguel comes to fruition. I'd kill to hear Kelly on a song like "Primetime."
