Has it really been 15 years since Kelly Clarkson won American Idol? Apparently so, yet the singer has managed – with nary a scandal to her name – to make an impact on the music industry and avoid the well-trodden path to reality show obscurity.

Singing snippets of hits Since U Been Gone, Because of You and Stronger, Clarkson is asked by Corden to demonstrate she can make anything sound good – and he challenges her to sing “Do you want the receipt or shall I put it in the bag?”
