Kelly Clarkson is sharing her thoughts on her ex-husband Brandon Blackstock's claims! Kelly's former spouse Brandon felt that she wasn't the perfect candidate for the NBC singing show 'The Voice.' 

As per the court documents acquired by the New York Post, Kelly who has been a judge on 'The Voice' for nine seasons has claimed that her ex-husband Brandon once told her she wasn’t “sexy” enough to be on the judging panel of the popular competition series.

For the unversed, Brandon served as his ex-wife Kelly's manager for several years. In the legal documents obtained, Kelly also alleged that Brandon told her whole personality was “too similar” to another “Voice” coach Blake Shelton, and that the NBC executives were “looking for a more sex symbol type” like Rihanna. 

It has been reported by the media outlet that when Kelly was asked about the entire matter in court, she told her attorney Ed McPherson, “Well, a wife doesn’t forget a time she gets told she’s not a sex symbol, so that stays.”
