Just minutes after her performance, Kelly did something that surprised the judges and the audience. She was overwhelmed with emotion and fought back tears while singing incredibly powerful lyrics.
For a brief moment, she struggled to keep the song going, showing incredible real emotion rarely seen in the stage performances of music stars like Kelly Clarkson.
Besides her incredible talent, Kelly is also known for the incredible, almost instantaneous bonds she forms with the audience that hears her sing live. The strength and passion she puts into every performance resonates deeply with her fans.
When she had to take a break because she was confused during her performance, the audience was there to stand up and cheer her on.
The audience started singing “Kelly! Kelly! Kelly!” in a joint effort to encourage her to keep singing. The song ended with a standing ovation from the audience and a moving thank you from Keith Urban and the other judges.
