Do you remember when Kelly Clarkson covered one of Jelly Roll\u2019s songs and it brought him to tears?<\/p>\n

As fans of Clarkson know, she often covers songs from a wide range of artists and genres during her popular karaoke segment, dubbed\u00a0Kellyoke<\/em>, on her daytime talk show.<\/p>\n

At this point, Clarkson has made it clear she can sing just about anything, but this time she didn\u2019t just impress the studio audience. Jelly Roll himself saw the performance and admitted it moved him to tears.<\/p>\n

After Clarkson\u2019s performance gained traction on social media, Jelly Roll took to his X account to share his gratitude. He expressed how honored and amazed he was that she chose to cover his song on\u00a0The Kelly Clarkson Show<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\u201cI would\u2019ve never believed you if you would\u2019ve told me that I\u2019d write a song so impactful that incredible Kelly Clarkson would deem it worthy to cover,\u201d Jelly Roll wrote.<\/p>\n

\u201cThank you Kelly- wow \u2013 I\u2019m honored in a way I can\u2019t even described \u2013 I cried watching it.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
