Kelly Clarkson honored Taylor Swift on her daytime talk show by performing a cover of Swift’s Midnights hit, “Lavender Haze,” during her Kellyoke segment on Tuesday (Nov. 26). With effortless vocals, Clarkson nailed the song’s high notes, delivering a heartfelt rendition of the track, which peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100.
“Lavender Haze,” released in 2022, is a standout track from Swift’s chart-topping album Midnights. The song’s title was inspired by the 1950s term describing the feeling of being deeply in love and wanting to block out negativity. Swift had explained this in a now-deleted Instagram video, noting that the phrase resonated with her due to the pressures brought by social media on public relationships.
Clarkson’s tribute added her unique touch to the song, highlighting her admiration for Swift’s artistry and showcasing her own vocal prowess. The performance was a nod to the enduring impact of Swift’s music in pop culture.
