It wasn't just the instruments that were stripped-down during Kelly Clarkson's "Unplugged" taping, held just two days after Clarkson's "Stronger" debuted.

Kelly Clarkson's Fashion Evolution

 

1. On her boobs falling out of her dress: "Was it Erin Brockovich the whole time?! It's funny because I have no boobs but they're coming out."

 

2. "I realize God didn't give me boobs cuz if I had them, I'd show them off. I'd be a slut."

 

3. After a take during which she flubbed lyrics but kept going: "I should have just stopped -- just like most of my relationships!"

 

4. "This is my diva outfit. You would never see me in this on tour. Maybe for one song I would come out like this and be like, 'Look I'm a girl!'"

 

5. After making a joke about wearing TWO pairs of Spanx: "Oh dear God, can we just sing?!"

 

Banter aside, Clarkson and her band played a five-song set: "I Know You Won't" (Carrie Underwood cover), "Darkside," "What Doesn't Kill You (Stronger)" "Mr. Know It All" and "Since U Been Gone." Check out video of her Carrie Underwood cover below.
