Kelly Clarkson gets candid on buying home, redecorating amid divorce: 'I just wanted to feel happy'
Kelly Clarkson is making some changes in order to "feel cleansed."
The 37-year-old singer, who filed for divorce from her ex-husband Brandon Blackstock in June, opened up to Fran Drescher on "The Kelly Clarkson Show" about steps she's taking to help her feel good.
In a clip from the show published Monday, Drescher, who was married to Peter Marc Jacobson from 1978 to 1999, shared that she bought a house while in the midst of her divorce.
"I was still on the show 'The Nanny,' and my life was very complicated and intense and busy," she said. "I needed something that was extremely calming and very pristine and to make me feel very peaceful."
Clarkson replied that she could relate.
“It’s like you were in my last therapy session," she said. "I got a new house, it’s very white and clean – the same reasoning."
In addition to buying a new house, Clarkson also revealed that she redid her office, with some help from "The Kelly Clarkson Show" art department.
"I was like, 'Please help me make this make sense. I need to feel cleansed,' " Clarkson continued. "I just wanted to feel happy, and it does. The colors make me feel really good."
