Kelly Clarkson Drops Show Stopping Whitney Houston Cover

On Wednesday, July 8th, Kelly Clarkson took fans back to the early days of Whitney Houston with her Kellyoke cover of “How Will I Know”.

Clarkson’s sparkling Kellyoke cover arrives just two weeks after the pop star took home her first Daytime Emmy for outstanding entertainment talk show host as she wraps up the first season of The Kelly Clarkson Show. Other hits she’s tackled this week on the show include Julia Michaels’ “Issues” and Post Malone’s “Circles.”

Accompanied by her socially-distanced house band, the talk show host’s vocals nearly measured up to Houston’s on the original recording of the pioneering dance-pop track.

Clarkson belted on the chorus of the classic 1985 hit, which she revealed in the video description to actually be her first-ever audition song.
