Kelly Clarkson's songs will be on American Idol -- UPDATE

I LOVE KELLY CLARKSON and those are her songs and she made them what they are so if she doesn't want them to use it....DONT USE THEM. I agree that there was no need to bully her into leting American idol use the songs.N E Ways whatever Kelly does she can count on me to support her.....U ROCK KELLY!!!!!

Kelly has just started off on her career. Her songs are new and should only belong to her at this time. Give it a few years before using her music. "Kelly" is the one who needs to be known for singing her songs and I can't really see why American Idol needs to use Kelly's music. So what that she was an American Idol and got her break there. To be honest, you may get the break from Idol (actually from the fans who vote in), but it's up to the artist to really make that "break," as Kelly certainly has done. Kelly, I wish you would have kept your music for yourself at this time .. it doesn't need to be re-sung by many other voices on Idol. Let Idol be known for other songs and let Kelly enjoy her success without having to give it away so early in her career.

Ok heres the thing... yes the drama is about Kelly Clarksons songs. But do you REALLY believe that she has any say at all, she like almost all artists are just a pawn to thier labels. I love Kelly in fact i think shes amazing but the fact that any negative ANYTHING was brought apon her becuase of this is a totally misplaced idea. The attention should be towards Sony BMG they are the people to say anything about Kelly is innocent and i think that there is no body better around nor will there be for a long time to come. In all that i think she can do whatever she likes and everyone better sit there and like it. But thats not the case.... BLAME SONY BMG. NOT THE KELLMISTER!!!

Who knows if she wouldn't have made it w/o American Idol, you never really know. She could have made something of herself, sure, AI got her there faster, but that doesn't necessarily mean she never would have made it w/o them. I think if she doesn't want any of her songs on the show, that's her personal decision since they are her songs.

I do not see why she would be so selfish....Yes those songs are recent hits...but if it wasnt for american idol she would still be a nothing she would not be where she is today....they did not bully her they made her open her eyes and remembered where she came from.

I think theyre her songs and if she doesnt want some awful people destroying them with their horrible chalk-board scratching voices.. thats her choice. I mean they dont rag on other artists who dont let them use their songs. Also, she just released an ablbum...why ruin it?

Whatever happened to the compulsory license? Or are TV shows considered differently than audio recordings? I sure didn't think so.

Ugh. I can't believe they bullied her into saying yes. Why would she want her hits to be in someone else's hands so soon after she put them out? I was thinking about giving this show a try (about a million years behind every other American, apparently), but if this is how they treat their stars even after they've gotten themselves out of that draconian contract, then I'm out.
