In reply to Clarkson.

She might be on the pill. Hence the puffy cheeks. I blame the rigid-framed "costume." It gave her linebacker-wide shoulders and hippo hips. Only a simple chignon flatters such metal-wear. A winter premiere would have warranted fur, but not in this heat. The makeup makes her look like a man ... and I've never seen Beyoncé look like one til today. A smile would have relaxed the somber do/getup/presentation. Kelly did do better.
