- September 21, 2018
AceShowbiz - iHeartRadio's congratulatory message to Kelly Clarkson apparently didn't sit too well with the songstress. After the radio network tweeted a message praising Kelly for being multi talented, she replied that she did everything besides getting her music played on iHeartRadio's channels.
Kelly also mentioned the fact that she was invited to perform at the iHeartRadio Music Festival this coming weekend even though her songs were never played on the radio. "I guess I'm cool enough to invite, but not cool enough to play my record," she tweeted, adding the hashtags #truth, #check and #seeyasaturday. She also tagged the post with the title of her album, "Meaning of Life".
....except for getting my songs played on your stations. I guess I’m cool enough to invite but not cool enough to play my record. #truth #check #seeyasaturday HAHAHAHAHAHA #MeaningOfLife https://t.co/WNGa0xqAyN
