She continued to share photos of her outfit despite being slammed for her white fur coat
Kelly’s coat featured thick white fur around the neckline, cuffs, and hemline.
While several fans complimented how beautiful the daytime television host looked at the tree lighting, many couldn’t look past her jacket.
One fan on Instagram said: “Hope that’s not real fur.”
Another added: “If that is real fur, you should be ashamed!
“Those poor animals are worth more than cuffs and trim. #cruelty.”
A third added: “Kelly, I love you, but please don’t wear fur…”
Kelly did not reveal whether her coat was real fur or faux fur.
She did, however, appear to brush aside the controversy by continuing to post photos and videos in the outfit despite the backlash.
The Since U Been Gone singer shared several close-ups of her makeup and hair and posed with her glam room while wearing the outfit.
Kelly captioned it: “Shout out to my incredible team that froze outside with me last night at the Rockefeller tree lighting.
“We were freezing but it was so much fun!!”
She also posted a clip of herself wearing the coat as she reflected on the irony of singing her song, Underneath The Tree, while standing under the tree.
Controversy aside, Kelly has been stunning fans with her drastic weight loss in recent months.
During a recent chat on The Kelly Clarkson Show, the host admitted that she’s been loving losing weight.
As the singer spoke with sisters Barbara, 41, and Jenna Bush Hager, 41, the trio delved into the topic of not fitting into their clothes anymore.
Kelly added: “Ugh, I don’t fit into mine.
“I love losing weight but here’s the thing. Jeans are so hard, I feel like when you have a butt and a smaller waist.”
