Blake Shelton Appears As Guest On The Kelly Clarkson Show And Sings With Kelly
Kelly Clarkson took some time off of The Voice in 2022 after coaching the show for eight seasons. On the show, she often bickered with her longtime friend and fellow coach, Blake Shelton, which resulted in some hilarious moments.

Although Clarkson wasn’t on The Voice then, Shelton stopped by her talk show, The Kelly Clarkson Show, to discuss the new season in September 2022. Their reunion also served as the perfect opportunity for them to sing a duet.
The pair opted to sing Shelton’s debut single from 2001, “Austin.” On top of being Shelton’s first single ever, “Austin” was also his first #1 song.
“Austin” turned 20 in 2021. Shelton celebrated the song’s birthday with a special performance during the ACM Awards that year.

Shelton and Clarkson had been talking about “Austin” on her show, and Clarkson told Shelton she’d like to sing it with him. So he started playing his acoustic guitar and sang the song’s opening while Clarkson looked on in awe.
Clarkson finally joined the chorus, smiling the whole time as she sang. Shelton had her take over and sing the final line solo, which Clarkson was thrilled to do.
After they finished, Clarkson kept exclaiming “It’s so good!” It’s clear she’s a big fan of “Austin,” and we can’t blame her…it’s such a good song!
