Backlash has acted as no deterrent for John Legend and Kelly Clarkson as they continue to promote their revamped version of the holiday classic, ‘Baby, It’s Cold Outside’ (featured on the deluxe edition of the former’s ‘Legendary Christmas’ album).

Despite earning resistance for its updated lyrics, which were reimagined to be more socially conscious than the original, the duo gave the tune its first live rendition via a stunning performance on ‘The Voice’ last week.  The acclaim from the showing must have prompted an encore because the Grammy winners – who both serve as judges on this season of the reality talent competition – reunited on Clarkson’s top-rated talk show for yet another impressive rendition.
