We've got the full list of American Idol winner Kelly Clarkson's UK tour dates
Texan Kelly Clarkson won the first series of American Idol in 2002 with a staggering 7 million votes, securing a 57 per cent majority.
The 23-year-old was signed immediately by 19 Entertainment's Simon Fuller, creator of American Idol and one of the most influential names in music.
The result was Kelly Clarkson's album, "Thankful", which became one of the biggest selling debut albums to hit US shelves that year. The title track went straight in to the US charts at Number 1 and over a million copies were shipped in the first week.Kelly then returned two years later with her eagerly anticipated album 'Breakaway' on July 11th 2005.
Where "Thankful" was the perfect introduction, "Breakaway" defined Kelly as an artist in her own right. Co-writing six of the tracks, and working with Avril Lavigne, Ben Moody and David Hodges formerly of Evanescence amongst others, the record was a defiant step on from her debut.
"I had a lot more experience coming into the second album," Clarkson says. "I knew exactly what I wanted and who I wanted to work with." Released in America in November 2004, "Breakaway" has already sold close to 2 million copies.
"Since U Been Gone" was the first single to be released from the album. Upon its release in America, the track was the number 1 most added song to Top 40 radio. On Monday GMTV revealed that "Since U Been Gone" had made the top 10 for this year's UK Record of the Year, securing her both fame and a huge fanbase on either side of the Atlantic.
