Gone Country: Kelly Clarkson

The first 'American Idol' winner hit it off so well with Reba McEntire when they taped a 'CMT Crossroads' in 2007 that she wound up touring with the country diva, being managed by her husband and recording a chart-topping duet of 'Because of You.' She may not be done. In an AIM interview for AOL Music, Clarkson described her next project as "country meets blues meets rock."
