As Kelly Clarkson crumpled beside Brandon Blackstock’s coffin, grief stealing the strength from her legs, one hand reached down to pull her up, another wrapped around her trembling shoulders. They belonged to Carrie Underwood and Reba McEntire—her dearest friends, standing like pillars in the storm.

It was a moment no one there would ever forget.
