Kelly Clarkson, 41, says now that she has lost weight her stylist puts her in ‘tight s**t’ as she looks spectacular during Vegas performance… after sharing the two things she did to shed the pounds

Kelly Clarkson was on stage at the Planet Hollywood theater in Las Vegas this week.

She looked sensational in a lace catsuit that hugged her impressive curves after losing a drastic amount of weight last summer.

When the 41-year-old crooner from Texas was offered a small bottle of vodka from a concertgoer, she leaned down to fetch it.

But she struggled as her outfit was too tight.

That is when she remarked that now that she is thin she has been wearing restraining garments.

‘Oh, boy. I really can’t bend in these,’ she said in a TikTok video shared earlier this week. ‘Dude, this is tight. Like, I lost weight and they’re like, “Let’s get you into this tight s**t.”‘

She was wearing a skintight black lace catsuit that showed every curve at the Bakkt Theater at Planet Hollywood in Sin City.

The show is called Chemistry: An Intimate Evening with Kelly Clarkson to support her 10th studio album.

This is the first concert residency by Clarkson performed at the Bakkt. The show ran for ten dates from July 28 to August 19, 2023, and she is back for more performances this year.

This comes after the American Idol veteran has told People magazine that she had lost weight due to two big changes with her diet and exercise.

She changed her diet when making different food choices.

The Voice star revealed that she decided to listen to her doctor, taking on the advice to cut down on carbs and put herself on a protein heavy diet.

‘I eat a healthy mix. I dropped weight because I’ve been listening to my doctor — a couple years I didn’t,’ explained the talk show host.

‘And 90 percent of the time I’m really good at it because a protein diet is good for me anyway. I’m a Texas girl, so I like meat — sorry, vegetarians in the world!’

She looked much thinner at the start of the fall when she went back to her talk show’ the set was now in NYC and not LA. At the time she said the weight change was due to ‘healthier choices.’

‘Oh, boy. I really can’t bend in these,’ she said in a TikTok video shared earlier this week. ‘Dude, this is tight. Like, I lost weight and they’re like, “Let’s get you into this tight s**t”‘

Some have accused her of taking Ozempic, but she has yet to respond to those rumors.

And she also said she shed pounds by walking everywhere in NYC, her new hometown.

She told the publication she loves to stroll around her neighborhood and putting in the steps have been great for her waistline.

Clarkson also takes her kids with her.

‘We go walk the dogs a few times at the park. We’ll go for ice cream because my daughter will wear me down. We’ll go make slime and we go to the museum,’ she said.

‘Walking in the city is quite the workout.’

And she has some other tricks: ‘I’m really into infrared saunas right now. And I just got a cold plunge because everybody wore me down,’ Kelly added.

She also said that her move to New York City was just what she needed.

She moved to Los Angeles from her home state of Texas almost 22 years ago for her singing career which led to her competing on American Idol.

‘I was very unhappy in L.A. and had been for several years. I needed a fresh start,’ the talk show dynamo shared.

‘For the past few years, I’d just been showing up and smiling and doing what I’m supposed to do, but you can only compartmentalize so long until you break,’ she divulged.

And she told her daytime TV show producers she was packing her bags. ‘We told NBC, “I’m not trying to sound ungrateful, I just can’t stay here anymore for my mental health; for me and my kids,”‘ shared Clarkson.

Her children River Rose, nine, and son Remington Alexander, seven – whom she shares with ex Brandon Blackstock – were not ‘doing well either,’ Kelly added.

Also in her new People cover story, Kelly admitted that she has been suffering from crippling depression that was so bad she has had to go to therapy.

Turns out she was in a dark place after divorcing Blackstock, and it has lingered for years.

Coming out with the new music made her feel like she was ‘taking my power back,’ Clarkson added.

‘That sounds very therapy, but that’s because I love therapy, and I think it’s important to have those tools to navigate your life and relationships.’

It was hard for her to deal with the emotions, she explained.

‘The level of depression and things that come with divorce or grieving is extraordinarily hard,’ she told the outlet.

‘You feel alone, and it’s just a blessing to be able to have that outlet for those emotions that are overwhelming.’

Working on her song Chemistry helped her heal.

‘I didn’t see it other than: This is my outlet. I’m a let-go person; I don’t hold grudges. So it was really delving into what happened in my life and why—and what am I going to do about it?’ she admitted.

‘I cannot express how appreciative I feel for having that kind of healthy outlet.’

She also talked her kids.

She was thrilled when her kids joined her onstage at her Las Vegas residency in August.

‘They were a little nervous, but it was their idea, not mine,’ Clarkson said.

River did a duet of her mom’s single Heartbeat Song.

Remington danced to Whole Lotta Woman.

She was thrilled then seemed into her being a star on stage: ‘I was like, “I feel like how you’re looking at me is how you watch Spider-Man,”‘ Clarkson shared.

‘It caught me completely off guard, and it was the most magical moment because they were so happy and at ease. They were just in awe.’

Her career is doing better than ever.

Her latest album Chemistry is nominated for best pop vocal album at the Grammys. And her talk show landed six wins at the Daytime Emmy Awards — including outstanding daytime talk series and host for Clarkson.

Then there is the Vegas residency, which added more shows through the winter.

This week’s People will hit newsstands on Friday.

She recently had her two kids with her on stage in Las Vegas.
