I’ve never heard pain sound that beautiful—at least not until last night, when Jelly Roll and Kelly Clarkson stepped onto that stage and tore the world wide open with “I Am Not Okay.” I’ve watched the performance again and again, and every single time it feels like my heart caves in. Their voices didn’t just blend; they crashed into each other like fire hitting cold water—messy, loud, honest, and impossible to look away from. Kelly’s steady, angel-soft power lifted Jelly Roll’s rough, breaking voice in a way that made heartbreak feel like hope. It was like watching someone fall apart and stand back up at the same time. Even Blake Shelton—normally the calm one, the unshakable one—just sat there with tears running down his face, completely undone by what he was witnessing

The two stars came together for an impressive duet.

It looks like Kelly Clarkson is about to add another memorable performance to her “Kellyoke” catalog.

The pop icon joined forces with fellow Grammy winner Jelly Roll to perform his hit “I Am Not Okay” during the signature segment of “The Kelly Clarkson Show,” and a first look of the performance aired exclusively on TODAY Oct. 16.

In the preview clip, the duo sing together on the song’s chorus, while Clarkson shows off her golden vocals when she belts out “I know, I can’t be the only one who’s holding on for dear life.”

They then take turns singing a few lines solo before Clarkson coolly wraps up the duet. The audience gives a round of thunderous applause for Clarkson and Jelly Roll as they share a hug and smile.

The full performance is expected to air on the Oct. 16 episode of “The Kelly Clarkson Show.”

“I Am Not Okay,” from Jelly Roll’s 2024 album “Beautifully Broken,” soared to No. 2 on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart, while also moving to No. 17 on the Billboard Hot 100.
