— Kelly Clarkson
41. “I’m not that girl who’s really concerned with it. I’ve dated a bit and it’s just draining to me. If it’s not going to happen naturally, obviously it’s going to be someone in the industry because that’s the only time people ever really see me.”
— Kelly Clarkson
42. “The question I love to get asked is: ‘What’s the hardest part of your job?’ And literally, the answer is probably real sad, but it’s just to be me. Like, it’s really hard, because I think people, you know, have a set idea of what a pop star should be.”
