Kelly Clarkson Outfits That Put Her Killer Legs On Full Display

Kelly Clarkson is widely known for her outstanding vocal skills, but she undoubtedly has some enviable stems supporting all that talent. That won't come as a surprise to her fans, though, because the "Since U Been Gone" hitmaker has spoken openly about her fitness routine and how well her muscles react to her workouts. "I do cardio. I run. I strength-train using my own body weight. I don't like free weights, because I build muscle easily," she told Redbook in 2012. But as inspired as we are by Clarkson's attitude toward exercise, we love her body confidence mantra even more. "Really, what I try to instill in my fans is to be healthy and happy. I have no desire to be super-skinny," she added. 

The star's fashion history (which includes Clarkson-approved spicy looks) has evolved from the singing hopeful asking for votes each week in 2002 to a supremely confident star in 2025, dominating the charts with her powerhouse voice and the small screen with her talk show. "She's a mother. She's powerful. She's a mogul — all that stuff, and I think she feels sexy and strong and independent," Clarkson's stylist Candice Lambert McAndrews told E! News. And this superstar has worn some leg-baring outfits that shouted her infectious confidence from the rooftops.

Kelly Clarkson's Olympics look highlighted her impressive legs

When Kelly Clarkson soaked up the sights and sounds of Paris, France, for the 2024 Olympics, she wasn't afraid to show some leg. The "Behind These Hazel Eyes" hitmaker was snapped in front of the Eiffel Tower wearing a navy, high-neck dress with embellishments around her neck and over her thigh, where there was a slight slit to show a bit more. The shoulder-padded number and shiny, silver heels perfectly framed her legs, which looked toned and smooth, giving her outfit that little extra je ne sais quoi.

Her bare legs were on display at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony

Kelly Clarkson had her gams on display at the 2024 Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame Induction Ceremony. The TV host stunned in a black, embellished dress with long sleeves and a sheer torso panel, and paired the chic number with platform heels. Though the ankle strap on her open toes could've made her legs look shorter (they're known to stop the eye from making a smooth transition down the leg), the high-hem and Clarkson's bottom half made her legs look long, ensuring she pulled off the look effortlessly.

Her cream Teen Choice Awards dress was leg-baring

Back in 2007, Kelly Clarkson had our jaws on the floor when she walked the red carpet (the grass) at the Teen Choice Awards. The star sported the chunky highlights trend that made a comeback 17 years later, but we can't say the cream, strapless dress was her most flattering choice, as the extra material added bulk around her hips and the sides of her torso. However, we do love that the garment showed some leg, as she still looked incredible in her light brown, satin heels.

She wore short shorts on The Kelly Clarkson Show

Kelly Clarkson has also proudly put her legs on display on her eponymous talk show. We got an eyeful of her toned thighs and calves when she interviewed Channing Tatum in 2024, around the same time she opened up about her transformation after taking a GLP-1. The multiple-Grammy winner looked effortlessly stylish in high-waisted blue shorts with a floral long-sleeve top tucked in. The fashionable superstar matched the mustard flower in her top to her platform shoes, which complemented her flawless bottom half.

The star put her lower half on show in a classic LBD

Kelly Clarkson also stunned in a leg-baring look on the red carpet for a Motorola party in 2007. Her frilly LBD did a great job of showing off her tan, toned limbs, and would've fit right into Reese Witherspoon's wardrobe, and she's the queen of the black dress. Clarkson's arms looked as muscular as her strong legs, which caught our attention in between the just-above-knee hem of her dress and her peep-toe, black heels.

Her toned calves were on display backstage at TRL

We also got to see the well-earned results of Kelly Clarkson's penchant for running in 2007 when she posed backstage at "TRL." Clarkson had us stunned in a flattering, short, black dress with a deep plunge and criss-cross design below her neck. She added slingback, peep-toe heels with a silver platform that were not only stylish, but made sure we saw enough leg to have us begging for her full workout routine.

Kelly Clarkson's Summertime Ball ensemble had us transfixed

When Kelly Clarkson attended Capital FM's Summertime Ball in London in 2015, she proudly flaunted her legs in a nude, skater dress with three-quarter, white, lace sleeves. The beauty highlighted her waist in addition to her legs, as she accessorized with a metallic waist belt that matched her chunky, platform heels with a thick ankle strap. But not even her bright pink lipstick could detract from her killer legs, which were the focus of the delicate, feminine look.

Her ASCAP awards dress finished above the knee

Kelly Clarkson's legs looked so good at the 2007 ASCAP Pop Music Awards that even what appeared to be a slight bruise on her right leg couldn't stop us from fawning over her toned limbs. The star brought the elegance from head to toe with her brunette bob, as she walked the red carpet in a dark green, halterneck dress. She added embellished, black, strappy heels, proving once again she has some of the best legs in the business.

We were distracted by her legs when she interviewed Hillary Clinton

During an interview with Hillary Clinton for "The Kelly Clarkson Show" in 2024, we couldn't help but be distracted by Kelly Clarkson's strong legs in her dramatic yet flattering, super high, nude platform heels. The singer looked every inch the fashionista in a matching cream, long waistcoat, short shorts, and t-shirt, which made for a super cute set that kept her look stylish and her legs long.

Kelly Clarkson still had great legs during a barefoot 2013 performance

At the People Like Us Fair Trade concert in 2013, Kelly Clarkson had us stunned after she slipped into a performance-worthy, mixed-pattern dress. The stunner took the stage without shoes, though her legs still looked gorgeous even without an elevating heel. The vocalist added a structured, black jacket over her floral and blue-patterned dress, which featured a zipper addition over her thighs, hugging her enviable curves.
