Kelly Clarkson performed last night at the famed Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles last night. As one might expect, a few special guests dropped by!

She performed  the Ray Charles classic, “You Don’t Know Me” with fellow Duets judge John Legend, who also stood in for Jason Aldean to sing “Don’t You Wanna Stay.”

Also, she invited her Duets partner, Jason Farol, to sing Duffy’s “Mercy.”

A couple of American Idol alums were in the audience, including Season 7′s Michael Johns who tweeted, “Watching Kelly Clarkson at Hollywood bowl killing it! She is a power house” Season 10 Idol, Pia Toscano, was spotted in the audience too.

Check out the performances below.

    She blows me away, even after 10 years of being a fan.  I can’t say that about any other artist that I’ve ever followed.

    I love Jason!  So nice of Kelly to have him perform with her.

    That place was electric last night.  If anyone is thinking about going or on the fence about it, I recommend going because both Kelly and The Fray put on a great show.  Makes for a very good concert.  This is coming from someone that is only familiar with a few of The Fray’s songs.

    There were lots of celebs, to varying degrees, in the audience, including Paula who just tweeted this a little bit ago.

    I’m loving that john legend came to the show and performed.  They always seemed to be better “friends” on Duets than say Robin and Jennifer or any other combination.  But maybe that’s me placing my own feelings into it.  I’d really love it if Kelly sang at John’s wedding!  

    I’ll still going to fantasize about that recorded duet between the two of’em!

    Sh-t its hard looking for words to describe Kelly. Wow will do for now. She even has me digging John Legend who I didn’t care for months ago.

    Not surprised Jason was there. She’s gonna mentor him for real. He’s a diamond in the rough. I really like him.

    Jason held his own.  I hope Kelly continues to promote him.  I wish he would place his voice a little more forward so it would cut through the band better.  He has immense charm, and that’s half the battle.

    Kelly is just such an awesome talent and accessible as an artist.  I love her singing with John.  Right from the beginning I liked Jason and wish Idol had him in their line-up.  He’s not a WGWG which is appealing.  LOL.  I hope Kelly does help him out.

    John and Kelly sing so well together. Love their performances! So great of Kelly to continue her support of Jason. Jason was so green on the show and I think that with more experience and seasoning, he has a real shot at making it as a professional singer.
