Breaking Kelly News, gang!

As promised, if there is ever any breaking Kelly news, I am going to bring it here to you all! Thanks to Kelly Clarkson Roks (whose MySpace page can be seen here) we have found out that our gal Kelly is going to be the headline performer for the Dallas Cowboys Thanksgiving Day Halftime Show! How exciting is that?!? I know that I am stoked about it! This means that we should all have the opportunity to be able to see Kelly perform on Thanksgiving Day! Woot!

Kelly Clarkson has been announced as “Headline Performer” for the “Dallas Cowboys Thanksgiving Day Halftime Show!”

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has announced that two-time Grammy Award winner Kelly Clarkson will perform live during the Dallas Cowboys Thanksgiving Day halftime show! The November 22nd halftime concert will officially kick off the annual Salvation Army Red Kettle Christmas fundraiser, the nation’s largest holiday charitable fundraising drive. The nationally televised live event at Texas Stadium will be broadcast during halftime of the Cowboys match-up against the New York Jets.

Each year the Dallas Cowboys and The Salvation Army encourage Americans to help those less fortunate by donating to The Salvation Army Red Kettles throughout the holiday season. As part of the 2007 celebration, Clarkson will perform songs from her latest album, My December, including the top-ten Billboard Hot 100 single, “Never Again”, to help to raise money in the kettles for holiday toys, coats and many other Salvation Army social services. She will also serve as honorary chairperson of the campaign, which will run nationally from Friday, November 23rd through Christmas Eve, December 24th.

Although it is early in the year still for Thanksgiving, there are those who go hungry every day. As the slogan for Salvation Army states, “Need Knows No Season”. I couldn’t agree more. A fellow 451 Blogger, Beth Turnage, who writes for the Astrology Explored blog, has decided to create an idea for November about “Poverty and Power”. I think that this is an excellent idea, and am glad that Kelly is using her power to help promote the needs of those that are in poverty. I, too, have worked with the Salvation Army, and I know that it is a very reputable charity that helps to feed millions of families every day. There is no better time to help those that are in need than today, so take the time to do something special to help those that are less fortunate than you. The power of
paying it forward” is an awesome experience to see! Keep checking back here, too, for additional updates about Kelly and how she is helping out those that are less fortunate, thanks to the Salvation Army!

I hope that you all have a great day!

Until next time! Peace!
