The thing is, Kelly Clarkson is really not that fat. She's about average sized. People tend to forget what real women look like.
Ehhh... keep in mind what we consider to be normal in our social settings is just as warped as what we consider to be normal in advertising. Americans are mostly overweight, and we have a perception of that being normal in the context of our day-to-day lives.
I think it's pretty likely Kelly Clarkson would be classified as overweight. Body types vary, and depending on her build and a bunch of other factors she may not be... but I think that's unlikely.
Is that a reason to judge her? Does that make it any less totally stupid for someone to even bring it up? No, and no. But it's still true.
