Kelly Clarkson put on another unforgettable show last weekend – with a few glitches.
The American Idol vet, 42, reportedly forgot the lyrics to a song and had a wardrobe malfunction during her performance in Atlantic City, New Jersey on Friday, according to The U.S. Sun.
It came days before she finally admitted she had used a weight loss drug to slim down.
During the show, Clarkson wowed in a fitted black jumpsuit that highlighted her trim physique – but her hair got stuck in the back zipper.
Fortunately, one of her backup dancers came to the rescue.
‘She briefly suffered a wardrobe malfunction and had to go up to one of her backup singers to get her hair out,’ a source explained.
‘She made a comment about wanting to rock out, like, nod her head up and down and couldn’t because it was stuck,’ the source added.
Kelly endured another fumble later when she ended up forgetting the lyrics to her song Mine.
The songstress admitted she wasn’t being present before she redid the song.
‘I’m not in this moment anymore,’ Kelly said, the insider recalled.
‘I have let go of these lyrics… like Elsa,’ she added, referencing the Disney film Frozen.
‘Just so you know, that’s what a singer does. I was like, “Oh s**t, what?” I was like, ‘Totally,”‘ she added.
She gave the track another go, adding just before launching into song: ‘We’re gonna do it again. I’m gonna do it right.’
The performance came several days before Kelly finally admitted to using a weight loss drug to slim down.
She had previously insisted her dramatic transformation was the result of ‘walking’ more and cutting back on carbs.

The Kelly Clarkson Show host made the confession while interviewing Whoopi Goldberg, 68, on her show on Monday.
The Fort Worth, Texas-born star – who’s been at the center of speculation about her rapid weight loss for months – said that doctors prescribed her with a weight loss medication after a blood test.
She insisted she didn’t use Ozempic, but did not reveal which drug she used instead.
‘Mine is a different one than people assume, but I ended up having to do that too,’ the A Moment Like This songstress told the EGOT winner. ‘Everybody thinks it’s Ozempic, it’s not – it’s something else.’
She reportedly lost 60 pounds, according to Extra TV, although Kelly has not revealed the exact amount herself.

The popstar, who shares daughter River Rose, nine, and son Remington Alexander, seven, with ex-husband Brandon Blackstock, 47, said that her physician insisted she take the medication after repeated efforts to get her on it.
‘My doctor chased me for like two years,’ she said. ‘And I was like, “No, I’m afraid of it. I already have thyroid problems, I was afraid.”‘
Kelly said the medication she takes is ‘something that aids in helping break down the sugar,’ as her ‘body doesn’t do it right.’
The hitmaker, presumably speaking about how she didn’t notice that she had progressively gained weight, said that she was taken aback when watching herself on camera at one point and seeing her drastic transformation.
She added: ‘Seeing yourself, I didn’t see it… all of a sudden, I was like “Who the f*** is that?”‘

The admission from Kelly came less than five months after she told People in January that her weight loss was partially a result of an enhanced focused on simple exercise and a healthy diet.
‘Walking in the city is quite the workout,’ the entertainer, who relocated her show from Los Angeles to New York City last year, told the magazine.
She told the magazine that she had been eating ‘a healthy mix’ of food while occasionally splurging.
‘The other night I had a frozen yogurt with my daughter, and it was magical,’ she said.
Clarkson told the publication: ‘I dropped weight because I’ve been listening to my doctor – a couple [of] years I didn’t.
‘And 90 percent of the time I’m really good at it because a protein diet is good for me anyway. I’m a Texas girl, so I like meat – sorry, vegetarians in the world!’
