\n\tKelly Clarkson knows all too well how sweet Taylor Swift is.<\/p>\n
\n\tThe superstar revealed to E! News<\/em> <\/a>that the \u201cAnti-Hero\u201d superstar sends her gifts after album releases. \u201cYou know what\u2019s so funny? She just sent me flowers,\u201d\u00a0The Kelly Clarkson Show<\/em>\u00a0host\u00a0shared. \u201cShe\u2019s so nice. She did. She was like, \u2018Every time I release something\u2019\u2014\u2019cause she just did\u00a01989<\/em><\/a>. I got that really cute cardigan, too.\u201d<\/p>\n \n\tClarkson also maintained that Swift would have come up with the idea of her re-recordings on her own, despite the American Idol<\/em> alum taking to Twitter back in 2019 amid Swift\u2019s battle over masters with Scooter Braun to make the suggestion. \u201c@taylorswift13 just a thought, U should go in & re-record all the songs that U don\u2019t own the masters on exactly how U did them but put brand new art & some kind of incentive so fans will no longer buy the old versions,\u201d she\u00a0wrote at the time<\/a>.<\/p>\n \n\t\u201cI love how kind she is though,\u201d\u00a0Kelly\u00a0told E! News<\/em>. \u201cShe\u2019s a very smart businesswoman. So, she would have thought of that. But it just sucks when you see artists that you admire and you respect really wanting something and it\u2019s special to them. You know if they\u2019re going to find a loophole, you find a loophole. And she did it and literally is, like, the best-selling artist I feel like of all-time now.\u201d<\/p>\n \n\tShe added of the Swifties, \u201cIt\u2019s so cool to see a fanbase really get behind her in that too because it\u2019s important. She\u2019s known for being such an incredible songwriter and the soundtrack to a lot of people\u2019s lives and that\u2019s her life. So, you should have the option of owning that.\u201d<\/p>\n \n\tFollowing the release of 1989 (Taylor\u2019s Version)<\/em> last month, Swift earned the biggest sales week of her career, earning 1.653 million equivalent album units<\/a>\u00a0in its debut week, scoring her 13th No. 1 on the Billboard 200; that\u2019s the biggest equivalent album units total for an album since Adele\u2019s\u00a025<\/em>\u00a0in 2015, and also marks Swift\u2019s largest sales week (1.359 million) to date.<\/p>\n \n\tMeanwhile, \u201cIs It Over Now? (Taylor\u2019s Version),\u201d one of five \u201cFrom the Vault\u201d tracks from the album,\u00a0debuts at No. 1 on this week\u2019s Hot 100 chart<\/a>, giving Swift her 11th career chart-topper.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
