BLACKSTOCK’S FIXING TO WRITE KELLY’S WRONGS
KELLY CLARKSON’s bitter ex Brandon Blackstock is planning to even the score with an embarrassing bombshell exposing the talk show queen’s secret warts, insiders dish.
“Brandon’s sat back and stewed for years now while Kelly painted him as the ultimate bad guy,” tattles an insider. “He’s always said there are two sides to this story and one day he’ll correct the myths and clear his name.
“He figures this is a great time to drop a tell-all. Since his spousal support is locked in, there’s no gag order on him and it’ll be great to stick it to Kelly ahead of her taking Ellen DeGeneres’ TV slot in the fall.”
As GLOBE has reported, Kelly, 40, shelled out a huge settlement to Brandon, 45 — paying her former manager a one-time $1.3 million chunk, plus $160,000 a month in spousal and child support for their kids, River, 7, and Remington, 6, until 2024.
But he’s been a thorn in her side over every little thing since their 2021 divorce after eight years of marriage. He got the court to agree to let him live on her Montana ranch until this month and even dragged Kelly back to court in March when a judge ordered that she disable the 13 outdoor security cameras monitoring the spread.
That fueled his taste for revenge against the songbird by painting her as an evil witch publicly after she’s made him the bad guy in their divorce battles, spies say.
“It’s got him convinced that he’d do well to stand up for himself even more,” spills a source. “People forget he was instrumental in building Kelly’s career. It infuriates him that she’s just discarded him like trash.”
