"In this celebrity culture that pushes perfection and eliteness, she (Kelly Clarkson) has given us reality and authenticity" this really made me emotional because that truly is Kelly. Kelly deserves all her success and even more. :')

[@hannahmaedamgo5061]

Agree.

[@estaamit3011]

Exactly!

[@kendrabryant4738]

Exactly! It made me tear up as well.

[@kellieevetts2637]

The fact that your team would go to all the time and trouble to make a video with the people who installed your star shows how authentic and genuinely humble you are, Kelly.

[@z-licious]

So very true!

[@kc4kc04]

Kind…Genuine…Humble…Kelly Clarkson an amazing example of a human being ❤❤❤

[@angelquinterovibe]

Omg, I can't believe I'm getting emotional over this ... I remember rooting for her on AI when I was a kid. And btw, this bts making of her Hollywood star is unique to all others I feel. I feel like she legit has let us into every part of her career milestones without trying. ❤️❤️❤️

[@gagecarlsen3872]

I cried during the ceremony and I’m crying now haha

[@classictalkies]

Loved the BTS with Vincent and his crew, showing us the installation of the star. They’re the unsung talent that don’t get the accolades, but people are admiring their work every day. 😊

[@mattchuu402]

I was 18 when she won Idol in 2002. My gosh… seeing this 20 years later made me emotional. And the three judges with her. We love her! Kelly, you are a STAR always!

[@danitydon22]

1984? same here. i just have always loved me some kelly clarkson

[@estaamit3011]

I'm so proud of Kelly! I've been a fan of hers since, American Idol. No one is more deserving of that star more than she is. Rock On, Kelly! 👍👍😁❤️

[@illion]

How they make the actual star is so fascinating! Thanks for taking the time to film those and highlighting those who work behind the scenes just like how Kelly would ◡̈

[@nasskc896]

I can't stop crying 😭😭 so overwhelmed & beautiful & super proud of my Queen Kelly Clarkson 👑

[@nuleethealien]

Kelley Clarkson, one of the most deserving artist ever!

[@Porcf81]

It feels really good to see a wonderful person being recognized for their contribution to society and culture. I’ve loved Kelly for years as a human being. Yes she can sing and I’ve enjoyed her music over the years, but her passion and personality is what makes me a fan. Well deserved! I love this woman!

[@HRHDMKYT]

Couldn’t have happened to a more deserving person. Kelly Clarkson IS a Star ⭐️!!

[@annelisecrs]

Love her so much. I'm so happy she finally got her star.

[@annie_sugar]

i'm so happy for her. everyone said such nice things about her. such positivity!!!

[@37vivian]

When I got a notification that the ceremony was going to be steamed @2:30 , I set my alarm so I wouldn’t miss it! #sodeserving

[@vivianrodriguez2403]

*streamed not steamed lol

[@CindyAronson]

Love Kelly’s genuine spirit; had the pleasure of seeing her in concert once…..tagged along with my 13 year old niece who loved her and I left loving her too. Keep being you Kelly - you’re perfect! Congrats on your star!

[@chiefsalvaje6557]

She is such an amazing person, I would absolutely love to be on her talk show.

[@j0asmine90]

Simon Cowel surprised me on this one ! That's a big of a statement what he said said to her ... Thank you Kelly for this making of, we love you and your Music.

[@fishheadnoodle]

i’m surprised it took THIS long for her to get a Star. but congrats Kelly for your achievement! she earned this ❤

[@Okaydo1]

Well, Julia Roberts, Brad Pitt, David Letterman and many more people who've been famous long before Clarkson don't have Hollywood Walk of Fame stars. People get it at different times in their career. They have to agree to show up in order for the ceremony to take place...Usually, it's timed to a big milestone or movie. Chris Pratt got a Walk of Fame years before Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell.

[@LesterM87]

Very well deserved. Amazing singer and amazing person!

[@avang8821]

Congratulations Kelly! You’ve always been down to earth and never have let anyone change you. Thank you for always pouring your heart out and giving us your all!

[@kfer93]

Kelly won idol when I was 9 and has always been a staple in my life! I still remember doing my first dance class routine to miss independent. She deserves the world 💗

[@freedomchance9982]

It has been such a joy following her career from “American Idol” to now! Looking forward to even more great things in the future! Love and blessings to you Kelly! 🙏🏾🤍🙏🏾

Congratulations Kelly on getting a star on the Hollywood walk of fame.❤️👍👏❤️

[@Familylawgroup]

I am soooo happy for Kelly. She deserves this star. ❤

[@stephanielauren987]

I watch every episode of the 1st American Idol and voted for Kelly like crazy I use to keep piece of paper and I'd write tally marks everytime I got through haha. But I've been a die hard fan since then and have enjoyed so much watching her continue to be successful. She has the most amazing voice, if you haven't seen her live you have to it will change your life haha I've seen her over 25 times and I wish it was more!! Plus shes the kindest person I've been lucky enough to meet her 3 different times and all over the course of different stages in her career and she's always been the exact same Kelly! I'm so happy she got her star and that Jason (John 🤣) got to speak because he made me cry multiple times haha. I love Kelly and every member of her incredible team !
