Kelly Clarkson Had the Best Response to Being Mistaken for a Seat Filler at 2019 ACM Awards

Kelly Clarkson says “some guy” made her night at the 2019 ACM Awards.

The superstar singer was in attendance at the ceremony in Las Vegas on Sunday night, where she took the stage to perform alongside Dan + Shay. But performing wasn’t exactly the highlight of Clarkson’s night, it was being mistaken for a seat filler!

Clarkson took to Twitter after the award show on Sunday night to share the hilarious story with her followers.

“The greatest thing by far that happened to me tonight was being asked to move because some guy thought I was a seat filler at the ACM’s tonight,” she tweeted with laughing emojis and the hashtag #CantWinEmAll. “Literally, it made my night because he was so serious.”

So how did Clarkson respond to this man? She told her fans, “I just politely said no hahaha!!”

Prior to the mistaken identity incident, the Voice coach and her pals Dan Smyers and Shay Mooney had the crowd cheering for their performance of “Keeping Score.” The trio earned an ACM Awards nomination for Music Event of the Year for that same track.

After their performance, Clarkson took to Twitter to thank her friends, writing, “I think we should be a trio 😉 …I enjoy singing with you two so much! Thank you for tonight @DanAndShay.”
