Kelly Clarkson Admits To Spanking Her Children When They Misbehave

Clarkson, 42, is a well-known American singer-songwriter celebrated for hit songs like “Because Of You” and “Since U Been Gone.”

She’s estimated to have sold over 25 million albums and 45 million singles worldwide, and Billboard has called her “one of pop music’s greatest singers.” 

However, Clarkson is now facing significant backlash due to some controversial comments about her parenting.

After she admitted she’s “not above spanking” her children, people took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to express their outrage.

One user remarked: “Kelly Clarkson should’ve been canceled when she proudly admitted that she spanks her kids. I for one deleted all her music from my library when she said that.” 

Another person added: “I was spanked as a kid and it was traumatizing. I don’t even remember what I did wrong. I only remember being terrified.”
