discussion Billboard: Kelly Clarkson winning American Idol is the most impactful moment on TV

[kellebrity98]

Agree?

 

[Escape]

If Billboard says so.

psh

it's true the first season of idol was impactful, but kelly's success post-Idol isn't given enough credit for how impactful it was. Not necessarily in terms of setting musical trends, but in the sense that it proved that the singing competition formula could actually work to launch a bonafide music star. If her music career had flopped, it would have kinda dented the show's concept or stopped it from being taken seriously, and now all these years later it's wild to see how many huge stars of the industry come from these kinds of shows that started with Kelly.

Nora had so many screws loose. SO many, but this series deserved more.

[HEAVYONIT]

Yup 

[Gorjesspazze9]

Yeah it was massive. I remember my whole family huddle around the tv watching it. And my family ain’t even into pop culture stuff. But Kelly was that Girl

[DawnAnti]

Well yes

[Kamil24]

Yes, I think the global group of celebrities/singers would look much different today if not for that moment.
