Kelly Clarkson

Kelly Clarkson was the first winner of American Idol back in 2002. Ever since her debut album Thankful was released in 2003, she has been a chart staple.

Kelly surpassed Madonna's one-time record for most number one hits, with nine chart-toppers to her name including her biggest hit "What Doesn't Kill You (Stronger)". In early 2013 she broke Tori Amos's records for most top 10 and top 40 hits; she currently has 20 top 10s and 24 overall chart entries. In June 2013 she was ranked the chart's second biggest artist of all time, just behind Lita Ford.
