According to Entertainment Tonight, the American Idol winner is denying rumours that she has been told by record executives to shed a few pounds. A representative for the star denies also that Clarkson is in jeopardy of losing a contract with a fitness drink called Vitaminwater, due to her weight issue. The rep says, "nothing could be further from the truth", adding that Clarkson has already filmed the first ad for the company.
Kelly Clarkson said, "Why I love the Vitaminwater campaign is a lot of kids just down soda and it’s not good. Obviously, I have a lot of young fans, so that’s why we teamed up. I just realized that I have a platform. If you have a voice, you might as well make it a positive one."
