Okay, so I just saw this. It’s from today, but the events are in addition to what happened yesterday:

Kelly Clarkson holds up a giant foam camera and snaps away like paparazzi at a toy store in Australia on Wednesday (June 2).

Kelly Clarkson hits up Nova radio station on Tuesday (June 2) in Sydney, Australia.

It was just announced that the 27-year-old first-ever American Idol champ will be performing at this year’s MuchMusic Video Awards. Kelly will perform a song off her album, All I Ever Wanted, at the June 21 bash in Toronto. Lady Gaga had already been announced as a performer, while the Jonas Brothers will host and perform at the show.

In other words, Just Jared did say that Kelly will be performing at the MuchMusic Awards, so we will keep an eye out for that!

Kelly doesn’t seem to worry when others comment on her weight gain. She prefers it that way, to be a good role model sending a message you don’t have to be really skinny, and that you’re fine just the way you are. In response to the fan reaction of her weight gain when she performed at KISS.FM Wango Tango:

But Kelly’s always favored a piece of cheesecake over perfection. “I’ve always been thicker,” she’s said. “I don’t believe in dieting.”

And even now, says a friend, “She’s happy where she’s at. She doesn’t think being thin should be a big priority in her life.”

Plus, she wants to continue to be a good role model for her more voluptuous fans. “She gets tons of fan letters telling her to stay curvy,” the source says. “The last thing she wants to do is betray those young women who look up to her by going on a crash diet.”

It’s not the first time she’s heard of it either. Sometimes it’s not about her weight. She already knows what to do, and she knows that she’s not going to change who she is – unless its for her benefit.

…she admits that it does hurt. “I mean, I’m a person, so obviously it hurts you at some point on some level — but I think I’ve been this girl since I was on ‘Idol.’ I’m the same person,” she said. “I ain’t gonna change. It’s apples and oranges. Some people like it, some people don’t.”

Well we like you Kelly just the way you are, you still continue to rock out loud!

Kelly’s new album All I ever Wanted has topped the Billboards Charts as #1 this week with over 200,000 copies sold! Along with her 2003 debut album Thankful, she is the only Idol to have two #1 albums and also two #1 singles in the Billboards Top 100 with “A Moment Like This” and “My Life Would Suck Without You”. This is truly an achievement for her and something most Idols only dream about.

Congratz Kelly on all you’ve accomplished! We all love and support you and know that there’s still more fantastic things to come!
