“Since U Been Gone” Reaches #2
I sometimes forget that Kelly Clarkson was the first-ever American Idol winner. With 3 Grammys, a handful of Country Music Awards and a talk show to her name, not every winner of that show went on to such great heights. In fact, other than Carrie Underwood, nobody has come close.
Style-wise, Clarkson has run the gamut. But the “Since U Been Gone” video, clad in Converse sneakers, multiple bracelets, a graphic T-shirt and the World’s Least Flattering Pants, was in that lovely era before we learned we had to blend our highlights, and when fedoras reigned supreme.
I don’t own the World’s Least Flattering Pants. Those belong to Clarkson. Unlike the fedora she totally stole from that dude in the video. So I pulled out some distressed sweatpants, in remembrance of his trashed apartment.
