Kelly Clarkson Copying Beyonce
There have been loud whispers regarding the similarity between Kelly Clarkson’s latest single ‘Already Gone’ and Beyonce’s ballad ‘Halo’. The original American Idol is stating for the record that she is not a music thief. Kelly says that her song was written before ‘Halo’ was even being produced. The similarity can be accounted to be due to songwriter/producer Ryan Tedder of One Republic. Kelly said “Ryan and I met each other at the record label, before he was working with anyone else… We wrote about six songs together, four or five of them made the album. I’d never heard of a song called Halo. Her album came out when my album was already being printed. No one’s gonna be sittin’ at home, thinkin’ ‘Man, Ryan Tedder gave Beyonce and Kelly the same track to write to.’ No, they’re just gonna be sayin I ripped someone off. I called Ryan and said ‘I don’t understand. Why would you do that?’” Rumor has it that Beyonce heard Kelly’s demo of ‘Already Gone’ and demanded that Ryan produce a similar tune for her.
