Kelly Clarkson's Ex-Husband Forced to Return Millions in Overcharges as Manager

Kelly Clarkson's ex-husband, Brandon Blackstock, has been ordered by a labor commissioner to return millions of dollars after overcharging her as her manager. The ruling stated that Brandon had crossed the line by booking gigs and securing deals for Kelly, which should have been the responsibility of agents, not managers. The commissions he collected for these bookings amount to $2,641,374. Brandon plans to appeal the ruling, but he gets to keep the money he earned from securing Kelly's gig on her talk show. In their divorce settlement, Kelly had to pay Brandon $1.3 million, provide $45,000 a month in child support, and $115,000 a month in spousal support until January 2024.
