Kelly Clarkson put a unique spin on a Janet Jackson classic today on her daytime series.
Viewers of The Kelly Clarkson Show will note that the Grammy-winning singer/TV personality partakes in a segment called Kellyoke, where she belts out bops from artists new and known.
During the latest instalment, she rocked out to Jackson’s 1993 classic ‘If.’
Watch Clarkson take vocal flight after the jump…
She did that!

JANet wishes she could do half of what kelly did
Um…Janet sounds better…..if this was a Kelly song…..it definitely wouldn’t have been a hit!
Kelly wishes she has Janet’s career
Janet wishes she had 10 percent of Kelly’s vocal ability and could sing live. A singer verses a dancer.
Utter nonsense. Janet is a showman & destroys all stages. Kelly stands there with solid vocals. Boo hater.

“All you’re getting from me”
Gurl you’ve said this several times, but here u are perching under my comment like a vulture just like ur faves normani who is eating Camila’s left overs Austin Maloney.
???
I like Kelly Clarkson but I’ll stick to Janet’s version.
That was a good rendition!
Say what you want about Janet’s vocals she took it straight to the Bank that’s where it counts.
Everything isnt about money tho.
Kelly and janet are two different artistes.
Both have strengths and weaknesses.
but it’s a bit weird when another artist sings ur song better than u.
Yikes.
Matter of opinion everyone has one.
Im throwing up and can u please tell kelly to stop wearing those grandma gowns on tv…….just loose the damn weight or find a better place to shop for her size
I love kelly
I will give u 50 bucks if u can point normani out on the
Billboard hot 100
Spotify 100
iTunes 100
????
?????????
MOM takes a tumble when her crazy fan said it will be Havana ?????
Notice when Normani came out solo camicky has struggled to get a hit ?????????
And that’s why normani is dating Austin Maloney, Camila’s left overs.
Ur faves is eating Camila’s left overs.
Embarrassing
I will give u 50 bucks if u can show me a normani song on the billboard hot 100.

Normani eating Camila’s left overs.
Normani dating Camila’s hand me downs.

?????
Trash…everyone can’t sing everything….and that was not the song to try to test.. Don’t do that again Kelly…leave that song to MS.JACKSON!
I love Kelly, but this is a no for me. One must have a certain amount of s** appeal and rhythm to successfully pull off a Janet Jackson cover ??♀️??♀️??♀️??♀️
Damn right
Oh hell to the no, she was just doing her Kellyoke, there wasn’t a DROP of sexx appeal hunnie ? It was cute, but not Janet cute ? This was something clean for the kids ? Family show teas!
Sorry Kelly Bigboned Clarkson, I don’t like the hardness of the vocals for this song. IF is suppose to be s*** which certainly was not the case in this rendition. Meh, I guess she was only having fun though paying homage to the Queen, no harm in it.
A vocal queen recognizing and paying homage to a legendary queen. I love it ???????????
And said by a bitter desperate Queen wearing his heels while dancing along in his room like a pathetic nobody.
Oooh CoronaShayla… ? I’m the bitter one, huh? Sure. Have a seat and wash your hands #Shower4Shayla
I like Kelly, but this was the wrong song. She would’ve done better with something like “Black Cat”.
I agree
It has no soul. Janet sounds better and Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis band sounds soulfoul too.
When an artist sings better than the original… haha let’s face it, if these two were unknowns, and you saw them sing for the first time.. Kelly would blow her away, sorry but music is for the ears. If Janet sang on the streets, you’d walk straight past her, even if the mic was on… which is rare for her.
Nah…. Janet’s sound is more popular than ever now… Ask Jhene aiko, H.E.R, Queen Naija, Teyana Taylor, Tinashe. .. and that’s just to name a SOME…. many of your top vocalists are not belting out like that. And besides all of that, Janet has a unique sound. I think she’d turn heads on the street.
Lol Janet’s sound? Seriously weak ass vocals is Janet’s sound. Funny people hate on artists with weak voices, but you’re flipping it and calling it Janet’s sound.
Taylor can ousting Janet lets be real. Also she sings live
Just AWFUL!
Well I figure a stank Troll would go there….still Love Janet that much more….sorry, You Lose?????
This was a dope cover and spin to the original. Janet is prob smiling at the tribute I like that Kelly introduces new and old songs to her target audience
Kelly can blow but I wasn’t too fond of her rendition. Not many can pull off a Janet song. Her unique, soft, sensual vocals and approach are hard to duplicate. Say whatever you want about Janet, but she had a distinct voice that worked for the material she sang. Everyone isn’t a belter, and everyone doesn’t want to hear big voices 24/7.
And FYI Janet has sang live LOTS of times throughout her career. She still sings her ballads and mid tempos live.
This was 100% LIVE and she destroyed it.

PUT SOME MF RESPECT ON MISS JACKSONS NAME.
SHE DID GREAT!!!!!
Janet’s sound is the reason she is still around decades later and more in demand than ever..
QNIQUE
Alright Kelly!
