How Kelly Clarkson Pushed Through a Burst Appendix and More
Let me tell you, folks, Kelly Clarkson is nothing short of a superhero. This woman has been juggling her career, family, and everything in between while quietly dealing with some serious health challenges. Recently, she opened up about hosting the Billboard Awards with a burst appendix. Can you imagine? Hosting an awards show while dealing with something like that? Kelly's dedication to her craft is nothing short of inspiring.
She told People magazine, “I just didn’t want to leave people hanging.” That’s Kelly Clarkson for you—always putting others first. But it wasn’t just the pain she had to manage; she was also trying to stay calm. “I was just thinking about trying to relax, [but] I was in so much pain!” she admitted. And guess what? That wasn’t even the only medical issue she faced. While filming The Voice, Kelly experienced another scare.
Another Health Scare on The Voice Set
Remember that episode of The Voice where Blake Shelton was talking to Kelly, and suddenly she grabbed his arm? Yeah, that happened because a cyst on her ovary burst. Talk about drama on live TV! Kelly recounted the moment: “Blake was talking to me, and all of a sudden, everything he said just went away, and I had to grab his arm and I was like, ‘Something is wrong.’”

Turns out, this cyst incident was even more painful than the appendicitis. “That was more painful than the appendicitis,” Kelly confessed. “It was literally a week after my surgery, so I was freaking out!” Luckily, a trip to the emergency room cleared everything up. “I was hysterically laughing and crying at one point in the E.R., like, ‘What is happening?’” she joked. But here’s the best part: “I’m great now. I’m totally great now.”

Weight Loss Journey and Health Advocacy
Now, Kelly isn’t just focusing on her career and family; she’s also taken control of her health. She’s lost 40 pounds, and guess what? She’s feeling amazing. An insider told Life & Style, “Kelly’s lost 40 pounds and she feels amazing. She really is in a great place.” But here’s the kicker: it wasn’t about getting skinny. It was about being healthy for herself and her family. Kelly has battled weight issues and even dealt with an autoimmune disease and thyroid problems, but she’s been keeping it all under wraps until now.
“She kept it a secret from fans because she wanted to get it under control first,” the source revealed. Now that she’s feeling great, Kelly wants to use her platform to advocate for a healthier lifestyle. “Now she feels like she can be an advocate for a healthier lifestyle,” the insider added. “This isn’t something she did to get skinny. She did it for her family and for herself.”
