"American Idol" may have made her a huge star -- but Kelly Clarkson barely seems to realize it's still on TV!
Miss Independent was at the Burbank airport Saturday night, where paps asked her about "A.I." She hasn't seen the new crop of contestants yet, and probably doesn't even know she actually had a chance encounter with one of the contestants back when she was on the show.

Who is this chick, and why do you feel she is newsworthy?

3. American Idol should have started and stopped with Clarkson. They found their idol. Do we really need this crap every year? How many idols does America really need?
I think I'll go back to reading books.

10. I did like her .But now she makes too much money and doesnt care about people that made her famous
11. Why should she care about the current crop of screechers on AI? She has her own life to live.

12. it's funny how you say Kelly "clueless" even though she's always very sweet to the vultures and is never rude or tries to avoid the paparrazi. Why should Kelly know anything about the current Idol contestants? She's busy touring and being an artist. and for final measure Idol isn't what made Kelly a superstar, her second album Breakaway did, which didn't have anything to do with Idol. As for whether Kelly cares about the people who voted for her on Idol, that's what touring is for...not watching every season of American Idol.
She looks super cute and I like how she never has an unkind thing to say about anyone.

13. The funny thing about Kelly Clarkson is she just don't want go along to get along and that's cool. Look at most female singers they've just about sold their soul to be accepted by the music business, she hasn't.

14. OMG -- Kelly isn't living and breathing American Idol season after season????? Who cares? Please. The girl has talent and brains and (I'm sure) bettter things to do than watch the contrived crapfest that AI has become over the years.
