Kelly Clarkson is “fighting for what she feels is right” with her lawsuit against Brandon Blackstock.

The 41-year-old pop star recently launched a lawsuit against her ex-husband, and Kelly is determined to get what she feels is “owed to her”.

A source told Us Weekly: “Filing this lawsuit against Brandon had nothing to do with her alimony payments. It’s about fighting for what she feels is right and owed to her.”

Earlier this month, Kelly launched a lawsuit against Brandon and his father Narvel Blackstock‘s management company, Starstruck Entertainment.

The chart-topping singer has accused Starstruck of violating state labour rules, alleging that the company acted as unlicensed talent agents who booked business deals during her time with the firm.

The insider added that Kelly “knows she can never completely wash her hands of Brandon because they are her children’s father, but she also won’t be taken advantage of”.

Kelly – who was married to Brandon between 2013 and 2021 – filed her case with a Los Angeles court on March 11.

The singer is seeking “any and all commissions, fees, profits, advances, producing fees or other monies” dating back to when she signed with the company in 2007.

Kelly – who has River, nine, and Remington, seven, with her ex-husband – said in her filing: “Based on the wrongful acts and conduct of Starstruck, all agreements between the parties, should be declared void and unenforceable, no monies should be paid by cross-complainants to Starstruck, and all monies previously paid by cross-complainants to Starstruck should be disgorged from Starstruck, forthwith.”

Meanwhile, Bryan Freedman – Brandon’s lawyer – has rubbished Kelly’s allegations.

He told Rolling Stone: “It is morally, ethically and legally wrong to attempt to get monies back from your ex-husband who not only helped her as her manager but who used those earnings on their children and Kelly and Brandon’s lifestyle during the marriage.”

Jeff Lynne’s ELO have announced their final tour.

‘The Over and Out Tour’ of North America will boast 27 dates starting in Palm Desert, California on August 24, before concluding in Inglewood, Los Angeles on October 25.

It’s not currently known if the tour will come to Europe or beyond.

The iconic band – best known for the hits ‘Mr Blue Sky’, ‘Evil Woman’ and ‘Don’t Bring Me Down’ – had somewhat of a renaissance in recent years with a new generation embracing the legendary rockers.

ELO (Electric Light Orchestra) played a triumphant set for the Sunday afternoon legends slot at Glastonbury Festival in 2016.

Jeff, 76, said of the performance: “It was just a great end to an amazing tour. We did 19 shows and sold them all out in big arenas, so I can’t complain about anything right now.”

The group – which was formed in 1970 by Jeff, Roy Wood of Wizzard and Bev Bevan, and is now comprised of the former and Richard Tandy – reunited at London’s BST Hyde Park in summer 2014, for their first concert in 25 years, and their last jaunt was in 2018.

ELO were due to embark on a tour in 2020, but it was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Jeff is famous as the co-founder and member of The Travelling Wilburys together with Bob Dylan and the late Roy Orbison, George Harrison and Tom Petty.

The renowned songwriter and world-class producer has also worked with some of the biggest names in music including, The Beatles, Sir Paul McCartney, Sir Ringo Starr, Joe Walsh, and Bryan Adams.

A pre-sale will take place on March 20 from 10am PDT, while a Live Nation pre-sale will launch on March 21 8am PDT.

Tickets go on general sale on March 22 from 10am local time at www.jefflynneselo.com/tour.
