Kelly Clarkson Can’t Be Put Down: “I’m Never Going to Obsess About My Body” – But Kelly, who is every bit “Miss Independent,” says that while Brandon has her back, she’ll always know how to fight for herself. “Brandon is not my other half. He’s a whole and I’m a whole. I’ve never believed in someone taking care of me, and that’s probably because I grew up poor and without a lot of family stability,” she told REDBOOK. “I don’t obsess about my weight, which is probably one of the reasons why other people have such a problem with it,” she says of her Internet trolls. Instead, Kelly has made peace with her body. “There are just some people who are born skinny and with a great metabolism–that is not me. I wish I had a better metabolism.

Dancing with the Stars celeb blog: Robert Herjavec reflects on his progress and a very special fan – We stepped into the magical world of Disney this week.

We are halfway through this challenge and the competition is getting fierce. I may not be a natural dancer, but I’ve learned a lot and I can do better. I got off on the wrong foot (literally, not metaphorically!), and it went downhill from there. I still don’t know what we are dancing to next week… but after a fun group rehearsal last night and some time to reflect, we will come back and be better than ever. – Read more at Entertainment Weekly
