The singer and talk show host surprised people at an outdoor shopping center and a coffee shop in Los Angeles with songs off her new album 'Chemistry.'

Kelly Clarkson has a new album coming out—Chemistry—and she came up with a great way to bring attention to it.

Flash mobs.


The singer along with the Los Angeles based choir Tonality made the rounds recently in Los Angeles, California serenading diners.

The singer then posted videos of the flash mobs to her Instagram.

In one, Clarkson serenaded a Blue Bottle Coffee Shop crowd, along with the choir, finishing by ordering a latte with a smile.

Clarkson was at the register, the rest of the choir on the balcony upstairs.

She also brought the choir and her new songs to an outside cafe at a shopping mall and sang for diners there.

"This was so fun, y'all!"


People imagined what it would be like if they were dining, or in a cafe, and Clarkson came in and started singing.

Trump's Truth Social Platform Has A New AI Tool—And Trump's Not Gonna Like What It Has To Say

President Donald Trump regularly uses his social media platform Truth Social to attack his opponents and lie profusely, but the site's new "Truth Search AI" tool is unlikely to win his favor because it actually—get this—tells the truth about him and his policies.

A test conducted by the center-right news and commentary site The Bulwark found that the tool, which Truth Social debuted shortly after Trump signed an executive order to counter the use of “Woke AI” in the federal government, actually tells the truth about everything from his widely unpopular tariffs to the 2020 election results.

Trump Just Bragged That Everything In The Oval Office Is 'Real Gold'—And Even Laura Ingraham Isn't Buying It

President Donald Trump received a dubious reaction from Fox News personality Laura Ingraham after he touted the Oval Office's gold decor as "real gold" while giving her a tour.

The Oval Office has been significantly revamped since Trump took office in January—it features, among other things, fireplace adorned with gold cherubs and medallions, surrounded by portraits of American statesmen in ornate gold frames and shelves filled with gilded figurines, urns, and freshly installed Rococo mirrors.

Sydney Sweeney Speaks Out After 'Christy' Biopic Has One Of Worst Box Office Openings Of All Time

Sydney Sweeney can land a punch, but maybe not at the box office. Her latest film, Christy, a biopic about trailblazing boxer Christy Martin, landed a hard blow but barely connected with the audience, opening to a paltry $1.3 million.

That’s not just a loss; it’s a technical knockout in the “worst wide release openings ever” category, according to Box Office Mojo. For films debuting in over 2,000 theaters, Christy ranks at No. 12 overall and No. 9 when excluding rereleases.
