Kelly Clarkson: Heartbeat Song
Kelly Clarkson: Invincible
Kelly Clarkson: B*tch Better Have My Money
Right off the top, it's clear that this cover is going to be completely different, with a piano backing giving the fiery hit a jazzy feel that would be appropriate for a lounge. Clarkson also brought out her country roots by replacing Rihanna's more gangster "b*tch better have my money" to the sweeter "y'all better have my mon-ayy."
Just because the lyrics may be a little safer for work, that doesn't mean Clarkson's spin on Rihanna has any less sass or bite to it. She nails the vocal with impressive runs and still has more than enough confidence to spare.
"Turn it to KC and now the whole club's getting crazy," Clarkson riffs in the second verse, seamlessly finding herself in Rihanna's high heeled shoes.
And now, we just have another reason to love Kelly Clarkson. Watch her cover of Rihanna's "B*tch Better Have My Money" below, via Just Jared:
Clarkson is on the road promoting her new album Piece by Piece, which was released earlier this year. Her new single "Invincible" is out now.
