Kelly Clarkson: If I Were A Lesbian, I Would Be So In Luck

Kelly Clarkson, the first American Idol, believes she would be “so in luck” if she were a lesbian.

The 30-year-old Clarkson addressed rumors she's gay while speaking with women's fashion glossy Cosmopolitan, saying she believes being single for so long fueled the speculation.

“People think, 'Oh, she's been single for too long,” she said. “That's kind of an insult to the gay community. Being single doesn't mean you're gay. But I'm never insulted by it, obviously. I mean, I get hit on by the hottest girls ever. Oh my god, if I were a lesbian, I would be so in luck. But it's just not my thing.”

Clarkson had been single for six years before she began dating talent manager Brandon Blackstock last February. The pair are now engaged.

In February, Clarkson told UK's Now Magazine that she's “not gay. If I was, I'd say, 'I love women!'”

“That's why it drives me nuts. But I feel like even if I did say it, people would be like, 'You're just trying to do that to win the gay audience.'”
