Jon Bon Jovi Teases Kelly Clarkson for Singing Incorrect ‘Blaze of Glory’ Lyrics During ‘Kellyoke’

Those high notes? Not a problem. The lyrics? That’s another story.

Just when you thought Kelly Clarkson could sing anything, she’s been taken down by a Jon Bon Jovi song.

On June 6, “The Kelly Clarkson Show” shared a blooper-filled video of its host repeatedly mixing up the lyrics to Bon Jovi’s 1990 hit “Blaze of Glory” for a “Kellyoke” segment.

Later that day, the talk show shared another clip of Clarkson sitting down for an interview with Bon Jovi, who teased her about getting the lyrics wrong.

“How’s your life? How’s everything going right now? How’s summer?” Clarkson asked the rockstar, who jokingly replied, “It’s as hectic as your morning has been.”

Clarkson, who laughed at his response, then explained that she got the lyrics wrong because she couldn’t read the words properly.

“I love that that’s never happened ever, but sometimes you have days where you’re like, ‘Oh, I can’t hit that note’ or something,” she described. “But you never have days where you’re like, ‘No, I can hit the notes, but I can’t actually read, or I can’t say the words.’ And you were here for it, I’m so happy for that.”

Bon Jovi playfully joked about her performance again and said it took her “all four takes” to get through “Blaze of Glory.”

“There might’ve been more than four, Jon. You’re being kind,” she laughed.

Later on in the interview, Bon Jovi made another joke about Clarkson’s performance when she asked him if he feels “pressure” being on stage

“Not like you did this morning,” he quipped while looking away with a smile.

“That’s my favorite kind of human,” Clarkson replied.

At the beginning of the blooper-filled video, which showed her butchering “Blaze of Glory,” she told her fans that this song is the one that “almost killed” her.

“Not even because I can’t sing it, I just can’t read,” she joked.

The “Chemistry” singer then explained that the song’s high notes weren’t the problem. Its lyrics? That’s another story.

“Here’s the thing. I grew up on that song, I know that song. But in rehearsal, I messed it up, like, a gazillion times,” the Grammy winner said. “Not even because I wasn’t hitting the notes. I just couldn’t read. I just kept saying the wrong words.”

Clarkson added that the situation became “so ridiculous” that she had to “let it go like Elsa,” referring to the “Frozen” character’s signature song.

The video then showed how Clarkson mangled her way through the lyrics of “Blaze of Glory” while performing it with her backing band.

The first time she blundered, Clarkson stopped and told her studio audience, “Oh, man, my learning disability kicked in and I said, ‘Let the boy like die a man.’ Yep. And it’s definitely not that.”

After another mistake moments later, she raised her hand in frustration, uttering an obscenity.

Clarkson paused to work out her frustration by emitting a blood-curdling scream before diving back into the song …. only to screw up its lyrics again.

“Let me fake —” she sings, catching herself. Then, to her audience, she yells, “Let me fake my final stand?!” before sliding down to the floor in embarrassment.

The fourth time she derails the song, Clarkson raises her hands to her head in anger. “I can’t say the right words!” she told her audience.

The video’s footage then switched to a moment when Bon Jovi arrives.

“Look who it is, Jon Bon Jovi,” the show’s announcer tells the audience as the rocker walks over to greet Clarkson.

Clarkson falls to her feet, bowing before the singer. “I can’t say the right words!” she tells him after the two hug each other.
