How Aretha Franklin Predicted Kelly Clarkson’s Success

In 2002, as “American Idol” was getting ready to crown its first winner, Aretha Franklin shared her thoughts with Inside Edition. Franklin praised finalist Kelly Clarkson and predicted she’d have a successful career. But she also had kind words for fellow finalist Justin Guarini, saying she’d love for him to open for her. Now, 17 years later, Inside Edition producer Kevin Harry looks back on the interview with Franklin and reveals what she was like to work with that day. #InsideEdition

    I remember this era of Aretha and the album "So Damn Happy" . i immediately went out and bought the album when released. I also remember watching American Idol during the season when Kelly Clarkson was on and won. Great memories...times sure flies...Aretha has transcended to another place now and Kelly Clarkson is considered a veteran performer and television personality now. May Aretha Rest in Peace. Her job was well done.

    I think Aretha did this because she wasn't threatened by Kelly's talent like she was with other female singers she wasn't ever that complimentary towards. Think about it. When it came to Aretha's opinion about Gladys Knight, Natalie Cole, Roberta Flack or Anita Baker she only gave them at best slight compliments. She praised Whitney Houston after she died but during hey heyday Aretha only gave her mild props.
