On Wednesday we learned the shocking news that Kelly Clarkson supposedly agreed to collaborate again with One Republic frontman Ryan Tedder on new music for her new album (even tho, you may recall, she famously feuded with him over a song he wrote for her that sounds very much like a song he wrote for Beyoncé). In a new interview, Tedder claimed that the pair were no longer feuding and that he was writing new songs for her new album. Today we hear from Kelly herself and, as I suspected, she absolutely denies that she is working with Ryan Tedder again:

Contrary to Ryan Tedder’s statement, Kelly Clarkson said she doesn’t work with him in her next studio album. The winner of “American Idol” season 1 simply wrote “no” when responding to question about that matter during a Twitter party on May 28. However, Kelly indeed admitted she is now in the middle of completing her fifth studio effort. “I’ve been working in the studio a lot for this next album & can’t wait for y’all to hear it! New favorite is ‘You’re the only one for me’,” she shared. Other details about the upcoming release are not revealed, but in a message written a day earlier she stated, ” ‘Cleopatra’ is NOT a song on my next record! It was written for another artist! I have no idea how it leaked, it’s a rough demo, unfinished!” Ryan Tedder previously claimed he has put aside his feud with Kelly Clarkson, saying “I’m working on stuff for her next album and am personally over any of the drama between the two of us.”

LMAO!! Yeah, this is more like it. I had a real hard time believing Tedder‘s story that not only has he mended fences with Kelly Clakson but that she also agreed to work with him again on new music. The only way I could ever see Kelly Clarkson agreeing to work with Ryan Tedder again is if she was being forced to do so by her record label. I’m happy to know that that isn’t the case.

So … remember that drama that took place last Summer when Kelly Clarkson angrily shared with the world her belief that One Republic frontman Ryan Tedder wrote a song for her that he had already given to Beyoncé, making her look like a copy cat? And remember earlier this month how we got to hear a leaked demo of a diss track titled Wash, Rinse, Repeat that Kelly Clarkson wrote and recorded expressing how angry she was to be conned by both Tedder and her record label? Yeah … it turns out that, according to Tedder himself, all of that drama is water under the bridge … because he claims to be working with Kelly on new music for her new album:

Kelly Clarkson apparently has left behind her beef with Ryan Tedder as they have reunited for her upcoming fifth studio album. Opening up about that matter was the frontman of OneRepublic himself in a recent interview. “I’m working on stuff for her next album and am personally over any of the drama between the two of us,” Ryan told The Denver Post. The vocalist furthermore commented on the similarity of Kelly’s “Already Gone” and Beyonce Knowles’ “Halo”. He said, “It’s silly. ‘Already Gone’ is now a bigger hit than ‘Halo’ was, so I think she’s probably happy, too.” On Kelly’s recently-leaked song “Wash, Rinse, Repeat”, Ryan didn’t rule out any possibility that the “American Idol” singer slams him on the track. He stated, “I’m pretty sure that song was ‘somewhat’ about me … and her record label.” But, the 30-year-old singer/songwriter didn’t despise it. He gushed, “I actually like it – I think Kelly speaks her mind regardless of anything. She’s great with lyrics, and I love that she is her own person. She’s no puppet.”

Yeah, I think this deserves a hearty WTF?! Now, we have to consider that this is Ryan Tedder speaking here, not Kelly Clarkson. All along, Tedder has been trying to downplay Kelly‘s beef with him (choosing instead to focus on her anger with her record label) so it would make sense for him to maintain an ongoing friendship with Kelly. I’m having a real hard time believing that Kelly would ever willingly choose to work with Ryan Tedder ever again. Unless she has had a HUGE change of heart (which is possible), the only way I can believe that Tedder and Clarkson will be collaborating musically again is if her record label is forcing her to do so (which is very likely). If Kelly is being forced into this collaboration, I doubt we’ll be hearing from her any confirmation that she is unwillingly working with Tedder again. I’m not sure what to think about this … but until I hear from Kelly herself, I’m not really counting on any new music from a Clarkson/Tedder team.

What do y’all think … have Kelly Clarkson and Ryan Tedder truly buried the hatchet?

HMMM … you knew this was coming. Yesterday we learned from Kelly Clarkson herself that she is pretty pissed that the song she co-wrote with One Republic‘s Ryan Tedder, Already Gone, sounds a helluva lot like the song he wrote for Beyoncé called Halo (you might’ve heard of it?). Speaking on Canadian radio, Kelly expressed her displeasure first with Tedder for seemingly pawning off a song he wrote for someone else on her and second her displeasure with her record company for choosing to release her song as a single (because it would seem to fans as if she were stealing from Beyoncé). Now, I’m hearing that her bosses at her record label are PISSED themselves that she is talking publicly about her feelings on this matter and are threatening to STOP all future promotion (ie. music videos, live performances, TV interviews, etc.) of her album All I Ever Wanted as punishment:

In his defense, Ryan Tedder posted a blogpost on his official My Space profile yesterday kinda sorta responding to the controversy. Shortly after he posted his message, the blogpost was deleted from his profile … methinks, he was asked to remove it. Nonetheless, I managed to save the text of his post … here it is in full:

Hey everyone, Ryan here. So…..i’m in Europe on vacation with my wife yesterday when I get a flurry of emails with links to gossip sites and media outlets saying “Kelly clarkson throws producer Ryan Tedder under the bus re: Already Gone” etc etc etc… Alleging that I copied myself or “pulled a fast one” on Kelly Clarkson. This couldn’t be farther from the truth and the whole thing is absurd….however, I need to actually read what the hell is going on, make a call or 2, and be fully informed of it, then I assure you I will have a proper, respectful response. I don’t take allegations of this nature lightly- ESPECIALLY when it’s in regards to artists I respect and admire. Nor do I let things like this go unaddressed. So, give me a minute, and I’ll tell u whatsup and what really happened, or in this case, “didn’t” happen.

HMMM … I mean, what else is the guy gonna say? Altho Tedder removed his My Space blogpost, he did release an official statement in its place today:

“‘Already Gone’ is one of the best song I’ve written or produced since “Bleeding Love” and stands tall on it’s own merits apart from “Halo”. They are two entirely different songs conceptually, melodically, & lyrically and I would never try to dupe an artist such as Kelly Clarkson or Beyoncé into recording over the same musical track, the idea is both hurtful & absurd. I think when people hear “Already Gone” they will hear what I hear-one of the greatest female vocalists on earth giving her most haunting and heart-breaking performance on a song she helped write. I challenge people to listen and form their own opinions.”

Uhhh, Ryan … we have listened to both songs and it seems pretty clear to me that the same music was pawned off on two different singers. OY! Kelly Clarkson can hear it too and because she was brave enough to speak up about it, she is now reportedly being punished … for the second time now. As you may recall, Kelly already butt heads with her record company bosses (music mogul Clive Davis, to be exact) when she released her last album My December which, IMHO, led to the disc’s poor performance in sales and on the charts. Kelly may have released a statement saying that everything was “fine” with her record company bosses in the wake of that controversy but we know it was all a spin job. This latest threat seems to be right up her alley … she speaks up honestly and then gets punished by her bosses. It remains to be seen if the threat will really be carried out but if we hear nothing from Kelly Clarkson in the coming weeks and months, well, you’ll know why.

Kelly Clarkson, who just released the music video for her new single Already Gone, is spitting mad that folks think that she ripped off the music of her newest single from Beyoncé‘s hit single Halo … particularly because she is among the folks who can hear the striking similarity. In a new interview with CBC Radio, Kelly fumes about the fact that co-writer Ryan Tedder (from the band One Republic who penned Already Gone AND Halo) appears to have sold both ladies the same song with different lyrics … and she is pissed!

If you’ve noticed similarities between Kelly Clarkson’s new single “Already Gone” and Beyoncé’s hit “Halo,” well, you’re not the only one. Turns out Clarkson has also noticed, and she’s not too happy about it. In an interview with Canada’s CBC radio network, the former “American Idol” champ said she was unaware of any similarities between her song and Beyoncé’s “Halo” until she heard the two songs side by side (according to Clarkson, her All I Ever Wanted album was finished before Beyoncé’s I Am … Sasha Fierce was released). And she’s not mincing words about who she blames for the similarities: OneRepublic frontman Ryan Tedder, who co-wrote both songs. “Ryan and I met each other at the record label, before he was working with anyone else. He’s from Oklahoma, I’m from Texas; we got along really well and had some of the same influences,” Clarkson said. “We wrote about six songs together, four or five of them made the album. It was all fine and dandy. I’d never heard of a song called ‘Halo’ … [Beyoncé's] album came out when my album was already being printed. “No one’s gonna be sittin’ at home, thinkin’ ‘Man, Ryan Tedder gave Beyoncé and Kelly the same track to write to,’ ” she continued. “No, they’re just gonna be sayin’ I ripped someone off. I called Ryan and said, ‘I don’t understand. Why would you do that?’ ” “Gone” and “Halo” do share some striking similarities, most notably in the backing track, which features somber piano, crashing drums and hand-claps. Clarkson — who clashed with her label in the past — said that she’s upset that “Already Gone” was released as a single without her blessing, but that, at this point, there’s really nothing to do about the situation. “It sucks, but it’s one of those things I have no control over,” she told the CBC. “I already made my album. At this point, the record company can do whatever they want with it. It’s kind of a shitty situation, but … you know, you learn.” At press time, a spokesperson for Tedder had not responded to MTV News’ request for comment on the situation.

To be honest, I didn’t immediately notice the similarity between the songs when I heard them both separately … at different times. But since the release of Kelly‘s new single, I thought it sounded very familiar … and then the handclaps cued me in to the Halo recognition. Shoot, if I were her … I’d be pissed, too … especially since despite the fact that Kelly‘s album was finished first, Halo was released months ago well ahead of the release of Already Gone. Methinks Mr. Ryan Tedder has got some ‘splainin’ to do. After the jump, check out the music videos for both Kelly Clarkson‘s Already Gone and Beyoncé‘s Halo for a side-by-side comparison …
