Celebmonkey: American Idol Kelly Clarkson Sings For The Pope

American Idol Kelly Clarkson Sings For The Pope

Kelly Clarkson performed for Pope Benedict XVI yesterday in New York.

The Pope looked like he was enjoying her rendition of "Ave Maria." But Kelly looked - and sounded - a little out of her element during her number. I can chalk her stiffness up to nervousness - anyone would have the jitters performing at what amounts to a state event. But her voice is a pop voice, not a classical voice. I'm now wondering how she was selected to participate. Is she Catholic?

What do you think of Kelly's performance?
