Kelly Clarkson’s Tuesday night concert in Boston, Massachusetts was marred by tragedy after a fan suffered a fatal heart attack, The Detroit Free Press reports.
A 38-year-old man collapsed while the pop star was onstage at Boston University’s Agganis Arena. He was unconscious and in cardiac arrest when paramedics arrived on the scene at approximately 10PM to transport him by ambulance to a nearby hospital. He was later pronounced dead, Boston University spokesman Colin Riley said.
“It’s terribly tragic, unfortunate,” he said. “But the EMTs did everything they can and I’m sure they’re very saddened that they weren’t able to revive the individual.”
Rocker wildchild Kelly Osbourne ruled the dance floor with a powerful Viennese Waltz on Tuesday night’s premiere of Dancing With The Stars 9, immediately sailing into the good graces of sharp-tongued judges, Carrie-Ann, Len, and Bruno. But, in a new interview with Closer Magazine, Kelly, says its anything but smooth sailing with much of the rest of the cast.
“When I first started the rehearsals, I thought the other contestants were all lovely, but it’s suddenly become much more competitive and there’s a bit of bullying going on behind the scenes,” Kelly says. “There’s a rumor floating around that one of the celeb dancers has been having secret lessons for two years! That is so not fair.”
Taylor Swift’s not the only teen star Kelly Clarkson’s a fan of.
In a video posted on YouTube on Friday, the nation’s first “American Idol” covered Miley Cyrus’ hit single “The Climb,” with the help of two of her backup singers.
The song came one day after both Kelly and Miley took the stage at the VH1: Divas Concert in Brooklyn, NY.

Kelly Clarkson fans continue to express their outrage over the singer’s heavily airbrushed appearance on the new cover of Self Magazine.
While the 27-year-old award-winning singer says she is happy with her figure, Self editors dramatically photoshopped away Kelly’s natural curves in a set of controversial snaps in the magazine’s September issue. Lucy Danziger, editor-in-chief of the women’s health magazine, took to the publication’s original site on Tuesday to defend the retouching of the star for the second time in less than a week.

Editors for SELF Magazine are responding to questions as whether they heavily airbrushed the September issue of the women’s lifestyle mag, which features sometimes-portly American Idol Kelly Clarkson.
“Yes, of course we do post-production corrections on our images,” Editor-in-Chief Lucy Danziger told The Insider Thursday.
While Kelly has long been the target of tabloid reports about her weight, Lucy insists the singer’s images were airbrushed because the practice is standard in the industry — not because they wanted Kelly to appear slimer. The mag stands behind its decision.
“SELF magazine inspires and informs our 6 million readers each month to reach their all around best,” Lucy adds. “Kelly Clarkson exudes confidence, and is a great role model for women of all sizes and stages of their life. She works out and is strong and healthy, and our picture shows her confidence and beauty. She literally glows from within. That is the feeling we’d all want to have. We love this cover and we love Kelly Clarkson.”
Kelly Clarkson has bowed down to RCA record bosses by performing the new single she’s dubbed a “rip-off” of Beyonce’s 2008 hit “Halo” during a live concert on Good Morning America Friday.
The free show drew a crowd of thousands to Rumsey Playfield in New York City’s Central Park this morning.
Early this week, the former American Idol claimed songwriter/producer Ryan Tedder sent her the ballad “Already Gone” without telling her he’d already offered the backing track to Beyonce. Kelly says her pleas to label execs not to release the track because it sounded too much like “Halo” were ignored. Read the rest of this entry »
