Kelly Clarkson is back at it with her astounding covers.
The musician and talk show host performed the Oscar-winning song "What Was I Made For?" on Thursday. The song is best known for being the end credits of the hit movie Barbie from 2023.
She added some of her unique high notes and poignant moments from My Band Y'all's piano and guitarist to give the Billie Eilish song her spin.

"Think I forgot how to be happy/Something I'm not, but something I can be," Clarkson sang. "Something I wait for/Something I'm made for."
The song looks like a Barbie herself! She wore a powerful red-pink outfit and sporting straight bangs and looked positively doll-like.
While it's true that many have covered this popular song, it's Kelly Clarkson's unique interpretation that truly stands out.
The song "Why Was I Created?" won large at several award events this year.

Kelly Clarkson Impresses With Covers
Kelly Clarkson's covers are a league of their own.
As avid viewers of The Kelly Clarkson Show can attest, the Grammy-winning host fearlessly takes on songs from a wide range of genres.
Most of these even get positive feedback, if not all.
Katy Perry was in awe of Kelly Clarkson's cover of her song "Wide Awake." The singer, accompanied by her show's musical director Jason Halbert, slowed down the ballad for her Kellyoke cover and performed the song acoustically, letting her impressive vocal range take center stage.
The powerful, stripped-down rendition of Katy Perry's "Wide Awake," stunned the latter. "Ok dang I can never sing that again," Perry jokingly commented.
From Third Eye Blind's "anti-suicide rock anthem" "Jumper" to Olivia Rodrigo's heartbreaking ballad "Traitor," Clarkson has consistently surprised fans with Kellyoke.
Clarkson did not even shy away from reworking the 2008 pop classic by Lady Gaga. The song gets transformed into a funk-tinged piece by her backing band.
Clarkson uses Gaga's template to go off-script with her own towering vocal lines and delivers the "love, love, love" line with a swaggering alto. Many said it was a powerful rendition.
Fans cannot wait to hear what's next.
