As reported here, ‘Breakaway’ beauty Kelly  Clarkson broke her silence via open letter to former mentor/music mogul Clive Davis after his damning comments about her in his new memoir ‘The Soundtrack Of My Life’.

Do not cross Kelly Clarkson. She bites back.

The Pop powerhouse has hit out at former label head Clive Davis following remarks the mogul made about working with her in his headline grabbing memoir ‘The Soundtrack Of My Life’

Though somewhat surprising given Davis’ level of seniority in the industry, the spat is not entirely shocking. For, the American Idol winner made no secret of her lack of satisfaction with Davis and the team handling her career in the immediate aftermath of her 2004 mega-seller ‘Breakaway’. Indeed, the project’s follow-up ‘My December’ saw tensions reach fever-pitch – resulting in the said album’s underperformance.

And while Clarkson’s return to prominence with 2009’s ‘All I Ever Wanted’ (and the slew of hits that followed) sent a message that any issues were now water under the bridge, the feud has seemingly been reignited.
