Kelly Clarkson Says Gay Rumors Are Hurting Her Love Life, Wants Duet With Adele Attention all available men out there: Kelly Clarkson is not gay! The 29-year-old singer has denied recent rumors that she is a lesbian, but it seems that people just aren't getting it. In a recent chat with E! News, she revealed that all the fictional stories being printed about her as of late have been hurting her personal life. "People keep saying I'm gay, and I'm not. I'm pretty sure I've never made out with a girl. It's just not helping me because I'm straight. No boy wants to hit on me because I make mean songs about them, and they think I'm gay."

With her fifth studio album, "Stronger," due next month, platinum-selling singer Kelly Clarkson has debuted the music video for lead single, "Mr. Know It All," directed by Justin Francis. The original "American Idol" champ faces many of her demons in the video (outlined on a self-titled "Wall of Doubt") yet comes out on top via one of her trademark uplifting ballads. "I think there's that free-spirit side of me, and then there's that feisty performer in me," Clarkson told MTV News. "Then there's the funny side of me. I mean, obviously you have to be funny to have a big giant wall of doubt with actual headlines of your life on the wall. It's a little fun, a little feisty." Aside from being fun and feisty, "Mr. Know It All" has also had some chart success. Out only two weeks, the single debuted at No. 18 on the Billboard Hot 100, and currently sits at No. 35.

Kelly Clarkson owns 50 pets Kelly Clarkson owns 50 animals. The 'Because of You' hitmaker admits her home has become like a "rescue ranch" as she is so willing to take in sick and abandoned creatures. She said: "It's like a rescue ranch now. We have 30 dogs, 14 horses. We still only have three ponies and four minis, but we have goats now, two pigs we rescued called Miss Daisy and Boss Hog, I gave those to my brother." While Kelly loves getting new animals, she insists there are some creatures she wouldn't take in because they are just too big. She explained: "There are elephant sanctuaries about one mile from where we are – which in Texas isn't that far because we're all spread out – and people have asked would I ever take in something that big. And I'm like, 'No.' Leave that to the elephant sanctuary. I think there's a tiger sanctuary in Texas too. We would never have tigers." Despite being surrounded by animals, th...

The singer rose to fame after winning the inaugural season of hit show American Idol, and has since gone on to achieve international success with a string of rock-pop hits. Kelly is currently promoting her fifth studio album, Stronger. The lead single from the record is Mr. Know It All. In the video for the song, negative news articles appear on screen. Kelly has revealed the poignancy behind the cuttings. “They’re all real ones. All of them. Everything’s out there. We kind of nailed everything. I think after ten years of doing it, I just brush it off my shoulder. But it was more so, he came up with this idea that ‘you don’t know anything about me’ as the theme of the song. Justin Francis, the director, came up with this idea, and I was like, ‘You know what would be even better, if we used actual headlines, cuz that’s funny,’” she laughed in an interview with Kyle and Jackie O radio show. “I am invincible now. Kind of like Superman!” Kelly recently posted ‘Can’t wait to find a man who ...
