Kelly Clarkson made some notable changes to her song "Piece by Piece" following her 2020 divorce from Brandon Blackstock after seven years of marriage—and fans at her Las Vegas residency took notice.

Videos of the Grammy winner performing the altered lyrics have gone viral, and fans are celebrating Clarkson's recognition of her own strength.


The OG American Idol winner wrote the 2015 song about her father who walked out on her family when Clarkson was just a child.

The original lyrics were:

“But piece by piece, he collected me up / Off the ground, where you abandoned things, yeah / Piece by piece, he filled the holes that you burned in me / At six years old.”

Viewers of her recent performance, though, noticed the singer replaced "he" with "I."

And those weren't the only changes.

What once was:

“He never walks away / He never asks for money / He takes care of me / He loves me"

Is now:

“I just walk away / when they ask for money / I take care of me / ’cause I love me.”

Fauci, the former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, has long been the target of conspiracy theories that served to undermine his COVID-19 pandemic response.

Labor Department Hit With Blunt Factcheck After Posting 'Godfather'-Style Meme To Boast About Trump

Similar to the AI-generated NFT trading cards then former Republican President Donald Trump produced of himself in 2022 for his MAGA minions to buy, the current Trump administration keeps depicting the POTUS as characters from movies or pop culture.

The latest Trump fantasy figure was shared by the Department of Labor (DOL) under Acting Secretary Keith Sonderling. Trump's original Labor Secretary, Lori Chavez-DeRemer, resigned in April during an internal investigation for misconduct and abuse of power.

The State Department issued an apology after mislabeling every country on a map of Africa presented at a pre-conference in Rio de Janeiro ahead of the AIDS 2026 conference.

The error is all the more embarrassing because high-level African officials were in the audience. Emily Bass, an expert consultant for Physicians for Human Rights, who writes about the Trump administration's global health agenda on her Substack, said the map could not have been any more incorrect.

GOP Senator Epically Trolls Trump After Being Asked If Not Having To Run For Reelection Has Made Him 'More Independent' From The President

Republican Senator John Cornyn, who was primaried out by a Texas candidate who was backed by President Donald Trump, gave a revealing answer when asked whether his unwillingness to support confirming Todd Blanche as Attorney General is an example of him being more "independent" from the president.

Cornyn and his outgoing GOP colleague, North Carolina Senator Thom Tillis, are urging the Justice Department to revise its settlement with Trump to explicitly eliminate a proposed $1.8 billion "anti-weaponization" compensation fund.
