Parachute

Hello again, welcome back to Nimrod Street!

The amazingly talented, Kelly Clarkson has completed the video for "Already Gone", the third video off her latest album "All I Ever Wanted". The ex-Idol gave fans an exclusive sneak peak on her website KellyOfficial.com! 

Looking beautiful in some fancy shmancy gowns, it is by far her most elegant video to date. It reminds me of  a cross between the videos for "The Trouble With Love Is" and "Miss Independent" from the album, "Thankful".

What makes this video cool is that she's accompanied by a room full of invisible musicians, therefore giving the illusion of  instruments floating in mid-air. It comes complete with a variety ranging from a piano, a harp, violins and cellos! To top it off, you'll be dazzled by her shiny jewelry which sparkles at every glance giving this vid that extra glow!

As for those of you wondering when the clip will hit your television sets, it'll premiere sometime this week. Be sure to sign yourselves up for the Kelly Clarkson newsletter to be alerted when the video will air.

On top of this, Ms. Clarkson will embark on a North American tour starting October 2nd, 2009. Supporting acts will be sister duo, The Veronicas and upcoming rockers, Parachute!

You can betcha it's a good year to be this American Idol!

Clarkson's album, "All I Ever Wanted" is now in your local record store shelves!

Have a great week Nimrods!

On top of this, we've got some good news! KC will be honored at this year's "VH1 Divas" along with Leona Lewis, Adele and Miley Cyrus. It's all part of the channel's long running foundation, Save The Music, which helps keep music education programs running strong in schools.

After a four year hiatus, VH1 Divas returns to tv on September 17th at 9pm and will bring together today's young singers at the Brooklyn Academy of Music to share one stage. The show will feature presenters and special guests all topped off with amazing live performances.

Head on over to Divas.VH1.com and submit your own "Divas Stories" either as a text or a video. Tell them your testimonies about how these talented ladies have inspired your life. Share your favorite moments, songs and the wildest thing you've done to show your idol what they mean to you. Chosen stories will be featured online and on television leading up to the program itself. VH1 will also be broadcasting older performances and music videos of past shows. 

Lee Rolontz, executive producer for VH1Divas, shares his thoughts on the event. "An amazingly talented group of young women have successfully launched themselves into the global music scene since our last VH1 Divas show. We're very excited to have so many of them join us at this year's momentous event."

"Adele, Kelly, Leona and Miley have all captured the world's attention with their talent and have earned their designation as VH1 Divas this year. Don't let some of their young ages fool you - these women are among the best entertainers in the world and will continue to thrill music fans for a long time to come."

A huge congrats to Kelly and the rest of the girls for this well deserved honor!

Have a great day everyone!
