Kelly Clarkson is making waves in Las Vegas during her Studio Sessions residency, and her recent reaction to a spectacular cello performance brought the house down. On Saturday, August 2nd, while performing at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace, Clarkson, 43, delivered her signature Kellyoke session with a twist. As her band eased into the intro of Radiohead's classic "Creep," the cellist's rendition was so "beautiful" that it stopped her in her tracks.
"This is one of my favorite songs to cover," Clarkson confessed, acknowledging the original's untouchable charm. Her genuine admiration for the music was evident, and her reaction was as raw as it was hilarious, with an unexpected f-bomb that left the crowd in stitches. "Oh my God, I missed this part in rehearsal," she exclaimed, pointing to the talented cellist, Ismael Ariel Guerrero Bombut, as applause filled the room.
"Do it again, I want to watch!" Clarkson implored, still captivated by the extraordinary performance.
Still reeling from the performance, Clarkson asked her band to hit the restart button, eager to relive the spellbinding moment. The singer, thrilled by the cellist's artistry, shared her excitement online. "I love to perform this song so much!! Also, @ismacello, that was so incredibly beautiful!" she wrote on Instagram. Bombut, equally grateful, responded with gratitude and admiration for sharing the stage with the pop sensation.
Fans were equally impressed, showering Clarkson with praise for her versatile vocal chops. One admirer remarked on social media, "Nothing’s better than the original says the woman who can pretty much sing anything better than the original!"
Clarkson's residency, initially delayed to "protect" her voice, began on July 11 and continues to dazzle audiences with its intimate and extraordinary experience. She expressed her dedication to creating the perfect show, assuring fans on Instagram of her commitment to their enjoyment. "We have been working 24/7 to make Studio Sessions the most intimate and extraordinary experience," she shared.
