There's no release date yet for Kelly Clarkson's new album, "My December," so until then, we'll all just have to make do with a Kelly Clarkson tour.
Yep, the Texas native kicks off her U.S. tour at the July 7 Live Earth concert in New Jersey. And then, look for her in Sac on July 15.
More details later - as for now, I'm totally not ashamed to admit that I've got "Since U Been Gone" stuck in my head.
As I was TiVo-ing my way through "American Idol" Wednesday night, I couldn't help but think how Clarkson, the original "Idol" winner, really kind of kicks everyone's butt.
Like, she can pretty much out-sing, out-cute and out-charisma most of this year's contestants. I mean, maybe if you married Melinda Doolittle's vocal chops with Jordin Sparks' magnetic personality - then you'd have a contender. Just sayin'.
(By the way, for more on "Idol," check out my colleague Leigh Grogan's blog,
Idol Chatter.)
