Kelly Clarkson appears publicly for the first time since divorce news


Kelly Clarkson has made her first public appearance since the news of her divorce was made public.

Clarkson appeared during a telethon for Project Angel Food, a Los Angeles-based food delivery organization for the needy.

Clarkson made a brief appearance to offer support to the Angel Food Project.

“Hi, what’s up, Project Angel Food? I just wanted them to know how amazing they are because of the way they have led with love throughout this pandemic, ”the singer said in a virtual message. “They have kept the doors open for people who are most vulnerable to the virus, those who are older, and those who struggle with life-threatening diseases. Thanks to you, they have never had to miss a meal. You have worked hard every day to make that happen. It’s a really beautiful thing. “
