“Confidence is everything,” Clarkson toldInStylein January 2020.

“I’m comfortable in my skin.

I don’t want to dress, sing, or think like someone else.”

Even so, the hitmaker has learned to brush off the criticism about her body.

These days, she (thankfully) couldn’t care less about what anyone else thinks.

As she toldPeoplein 2018, she isn’t too bothered with a multi-step beauty routine.

“And I mean that in a positive way,” she clarified.

I care about things that I feel like are important.

In fact, the"American Idol" winnerfeels her best when she’s wearing no makeup whatsoever.

“Yep, this is me in my glory.”

Luckily for her, she looks gorgeous either way.
