Kelly Clarkson ‘stalks’ Adele

Kelly Clarkson thinks Adele is "so talented", and has been "stalking" her success in the music industry.

Kelly is a great fan of the British singer's work and is eager to collaborate with her.

Adele recently cancelled all of her remaining 2011 shows in order to undergo surgery on a vocal haemorrhage, but is expected to make a full recovery from the throat operation.

Once Adele's health is restored, Kelly would jump at the opportunity to do a duet with the songstress.

"I'm stalking her currently through interviews. Every interview, they are like, 'Who do you want to work with?' 'Adele! I want to do a duet with Adele!'" Kelly told MTV News. "She's just so talented; she's just so ridiculous it's upsetting."

Kelly and Adele have performed together in the past. Kelly thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

"I've been stalking her since we did [VH1] Divas [television special in 2009] together, actually, and we were supposed to sing together, and then they changed the concept to where we would sing with somebody from a different generation," Kelly recalled.

"That was actually really cool, because I got to sing with Melissa Etheridge, and she's amazing. That wasn't like a letdown or anything, but I've been trying to sing with [Adele] for a while."

Kelly and Adele are both known for singing passionate songs about heartbreak. Although their songs' subject matter is similar, Kelly appreciates their distinct musical differences.

"I always think it's healthy to have a lot of stuff out there, and there's room for everybody, because everybody is so different, especially all the women right now in the industry," Kelly said.

"We're all very different from each other, which I think is good. It keeps it not boring."

Kelly's newest album Stronger was released last month. Adele's latest critically acclaimed record 21 was released in January.
