AMERICAN IDOL's first-ever winner, Kelly Clarkson, is currently touring the country in support of her new album 'Stronger,' which was released in October. Clarkson has released 5 studio albums (Thankful, Breakaway, My December, All I Ever Wanted, Stronger), sold over 20 million albums worldwide, 10 million albums in the US and has had 9 singles in the top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 Singles Chart. She is the recipient of 2 Grammy Awards, 2 American Music Awards, 2 MTV Awards, 1 Country Music Award and 11 Billboard Awards.

Yesterday, performing at Radio City Music Hall, the singer took on "My Man" as first popularized by Fanny Brice and later reintroduced by Barbra Streisand, playing Brice, for FUNNY GIRL's film adaptation. See Clarkson's performance below!

FUNNY GIRL has a book by Isobel Lennart, music by Jule Styne, and lyrics by Bob Merrill. The semi-biographical plot is based on the life and career of Broadway, film star and comedienne Fanny Brice and her stormy relationship with entrepreneur and gambler Nicky Arnstein. The musical was produced by Ray Stark, who was Brice's son-in-law via his marriage to her daughter Frances, and starred Barbra Streisand. The production was nominated for eight Tony Awards. Earlier this year, a planned Broadway revival with Lauren Ambrose and Bobby Cannavale was delayed indefinitely.
