Kelly Clarkson, 41, shows off her stunning figure after 40lb weight loss as she talks to Maren Morris about ‘healing’

Kelly Clarkson showed off her incredible figure in a cute ivory outfit with high heels her talk show Friday.

The hitmaker wore a semi-sheer blouse with a tie at the front and a high-waisted skirt with yellow and brown wide stripes.

Chunky seven-inch beige platform heels completed the chic look.

The 41-year-old American Idol veteran’s top guest was country singer Maren Morris, who wore a strapless black dress with a green design on the front.

Morris said of her new album: “It’s a whole bunch of songs that came out of the rain clouds.”

And she also revealed that she hopes her next album will be released sometime this year.

Maren also talked about her crazy – and “healing” – past few months while recording new music following her divorce from Ryan Hurd.

Maren also talked about recording Some Things I’ll Never Know with Teddy Swims while she was sick. And she hilariously compared it to Phoebe Buffay’s “sexy cold voice” in Friends.

In the latest Kellyoke, Clarkson and My Band Y’all perform a cover of Ain’t Nobody’ by Chaka Khan.

Morris and longtime best friend Karina Argow talked about it in their new children’s book Addie Ant Goes on An Adventure, with a slew of pop culture Easter eggs they added just for adults to spot — like their Jane Fonda-inspired butterfly character.

Maren shared her dream of creating a companion album for the book, and Kelly hosted a children’s television program.

Maren also talked about taking her son to his first drag show, and what inspired her to become an LGBTQ+ advocate.

“Ending the week with our friend @marenmorris and her BFF @keargow PLUS @wagneer_moura and @wsbtv @loriwilsontv’s good neighbor of the year @inspireduatl!” Kelly wrote on Instagram.

A year ago, Kelly was much fuller everywhere, and now it seems like Kelly is at her lowest weight ever.

The crooner has explained that losing weight comes down to listening to her doctor about making healthier choices for her diet and also walking much more often in her new hometown of New York City.

It is not known how much Kelly – who turns 42 later this month – weighed a year ago; some experts estimate her weight at 200 pounds.

Now she appears to be in the 120 pound range.

Last year she said she only lost 40 pounds, but it looks like she lost a lot more, about 70 pounds.

Clarkson has denied taking a weight-loss drug to get thin.

On the show, Crow shared her “crazy” Prince story about the time he invited her to Paisley Park and beat her in a game of basketball while wearing heels.

Sheryl also reflected on Prince changing her lyrics in his cover of Everyday Is a Winding Road, and she admits that every time she sings that song, she thinks of Prince and chamomile tea.

Heidi Gardner, who recently divorced her husband, spoke with Clarkson about SNL.

Gardner revealed that she used Kelly’s Heartbeat Song during her Saturday Night Live audition, and she said she believes it’s a big reason why she made the show.

Later in the show, Clarkson performed I Dare You (Appelle Ton Amour) on Kellyoke.

Clarkson looked half as heavy as he was a year ago. The American Idol veteran looked incredibly slim during her talk show last week in a dress with a white top part and a black bottom

Earlier this year, Kelly revealed what she did to drastically lose weight this summer amid fan speculation that she was on Ozempic.

The pop star said inside her People magazine cover story that she has made two big changes to her lifestyle.

Firstly, the Since U Been Gone singer revealed that she decided to walk everywhere in her new home in New York City, which helped her get the exercise she needed.

Before Manhattan, she lived in Los Angeles, where she drove her car everywhere and limited her daily steps.

Secondly, The Voice star revealed that she decided to listen to her doctor and followed the advice to reduce carbs and put herself on a high-protein diet.

She told the publication that she enjoys strolling around her neighborhood and that taking the steps is great for her waistline.

Clarkson is also bringing along her children River Rose, nine, and son Remington Alexander, seven – father is her ex-husband Brandon Blackstock.

‘We take the dogs for a walk in the park a few times. We’re going to have ice cream because my daughter is going to exhaust me. We’re going to make slime and go to the museum,” she said.

‘Walking in the city is quite a workout. And I’m really into infrared saunas right now. And I just got a cold dip because everyone was wearing me out,” Kelly added.

And what she puts on her plate is different.

‘I eat a healthy mix. I lost weight because I listened to my doctor – not for a few years,” the talk show host explained.

‘And 90 percent of the time I’m very good at it, because a protein diet is good for me anyway. I’m a Texas girl, so I love meat – sorry, vegetarians in the world!’

She looked much thinner in early fall when she returned to her talk show. The set was now in NYC and not LA. At the time, she said the weight change was due to “healthier choices.”
