Kelly Clarkson cranked up the sass when she performed Jo Dee Messinaâs breakup anthem âBye Byeâ on her talk show on Wednesday (September 28), and Messina had the best response.
Messina, who also shared a clip of Clarksonâs performance on her social media channels earlier in the day, posted a video that evening in response to the âKellyokeâ cover. Messina said in the video that she was packing to get on the road when âmy phone starts blowing upâ because of Clarksonâs rendition of her song. âI found out Kelly Clarkson did a version of âBye Byeâ today on her show, and it was awesome,â Messina gushed. âAnd if you missed it, you have to go back and see it.â
Messina sat at her piano and dedicated a cover of âBreakawayâ to Clarkson. Clarkson released the song in 2004 on her 12-track studio album of the same name. That project also included fan-favorite hits âSince U Been Goneâ and âBecause Of You,â among others. Listen to Messinaâs stunning performance here:
âI love you, girl!â Messina gushed, clapping and flashing a big smile to the camera to end her video. Clarkson couldnât resist sharing Messinaâs reaction for her Kelly Clarkson Show viewers. Re-watch her âBye Byeâ performance here:
