Fans obsess over Kelly Clarkson's fur trimmed coat 

While many fans flooded social media with compliments on Kelly's overall appearance and her captivating performance, a significant portion couldn't help but express concern about the fur elements in her outfit.

On Instagram, comments poured in, with some followers questioning whether the fur was real or faux.

One concerned fan wrote, "I hope that is not real fur!" while another expressed a strong stance against real fur, stating, "If that is real fur, you should be ashamed! Those poor animals are worth more than cuffs and trim. #cruelty." The debate over the ethical implications of wearing fur continued, with pleas for Kelly to clarify the origin of the fur.

Amidst the fur controversy, another group of fans gushed over the singer's weight loss and appearance. "Omg....you look amazing...please please tell me your weight loss regimen," one fan exclaimed. "Mother is mothering this holiday season," a user seconded. "OMG you look gorgeous!!!!! I gasped when I saw this!!!" a third said. "You look absolutely gorgeous and your performance was amazing 🤩," read a tweet. "Slaying the house down queen," "Walking into Christmas like Kelly!!! You look beautiful," gushed a user.

Nevertheless, this isn't the first time Kelly has left fans in awe of her new look. In a recent post from 'The Kelly Clarkson Show,' where she was joined by guests Leslie Odom Jr. and Mike Birbiglia, Kelly donned a bohemian floral gown, cinched at the waist with a brown belt, emphasizing her recent weight loss.
