Despite their divorce, Clarkson’s finances deteriorated because he was the family’s main provider.
She made a one-time, tax-free payment of $1.3 million to him. She also sent him $45,601 a month for their two children, River Rose and Remington Alexander. The singer will also have to provide her ex-husband $115,000 a month in alimony until January 31, 2024. Until they become 18, the youngsters will get $45,000 a month.
It may not seem like much, but when the singer first announced they were divorcing, Blakcstock’s father, who runs Starstruck Management Group, the talent agency Clarkson used to work for, launched a large lawsuit against her.
It should not be surprising that Clarkson, who has always had a gift for writing songs, can change a few lines in a cover song to express how she feels about her ex-husband taking half of her possessions during their divorce.
In a recent performance at her residency show in Las Vegas, the former American Idol winner covered Gayle’s breakup song, “ABCDEFU.” She gave the chorus a fierce, foul-mouthed twist.
“I used to like you, but I’m over it now. I made an effort to be kind, but it is ineffective. Let me reiterate: F*ck you, A-B-C-D-E.
The lyrics’ next line, which is directed specifically at Blackstock, sounds like a bird in the air.
“F*ck you and your valley view, which I also purchased.” as well as your father and the fact that you received half. And that s*x became art because of my damaged heart.
After singing the chorus once more, she concludes the song by adding:
“Everyone but your dogs, f*ck off.”
At least the dogs weren’t tossed into the flames in those verses.
I mean, yuck.
Even though Clarkson’s divorce was difficult, I’m willing to venture that she is doing rather well. She is a fantastic Voice judge, her gigs are consistently sold out, her vulnerable album Chemistry was a huge hit, and her daytime TV program generates a lot of revenue.
Fans of Clarkson have always supported her, so occasionally hearing hurtful lyrics seems like a nice way to unwind.
On her show earlier this year, she gave a more “safe for work” rendition:
She claims that the song “The Dance” by Garth Brooks got her through her divorce.
Oh, one of Garth Brooks’s greatest songs, “The Dance.”
As it happened, Kelly Clarkson’s highly public divorce was made easier by “The Dance.” As you may recall, Brandon Blackstock, her ex-husband, is requesting $436,000 in spousal support. A month.
In any case, when Garth appeared on The Kelly Clarkson Show, Kelly stated that the song is not just assisting her at the moment, but that she has finally understood it.
“I sang that song when I was younger, but I never really understood.” It’s true, which is why I was crying so much.
I think a lot of people that experience such horrible things… Particularly when children are involved, there is a great deal of loss, change, and pain. But I understood, and sometimes that can be so absurd.
Even though you’ve heard this song your entire life, it suddenly directly affects you.
How influential fans of country music are.
