Kelly Clarkson's Ex Father-in-Law Sues Her

Kelly Clarkson's ex-father-in-law, Narval Blackstock, sues her for $1.4 million. Due to a verbal contract that the singer had made with her father-in-law's management company back in 2007.

Narval Blackstock runs the Starstruck Management Group, who developed Clarkson into a mega superstar for about 13 years. According to "Variety," the company has been helping the singer achieve success in many ways.

The Company Helped Her

It noted that the management has helped Clarkson hit numerous albums and winning many Grammy awards and nominations. Apart from that, it has helped her get on famous television shows and her talk show.

"Variety" also said that Clarkson has decided to stop paying Starstruck for what they had in a contract even though it had helped her a lot. The claim noted that the singer owes $1.4 million for the commission to shows "The Voice" and "The Kelly Clarkson Show," although she has already paid $1.9 million to the company.

The Singer Pays 15% of Her Earnings to the Company

For the past 13 years, Clarkson has paid a 15 percent commission to the management company for her gross earnings. Starstruck wants to make sure that they also get the same amount of commission for this year.

The host of "The Kelly Clarkson Show" has filed for divorce from her husband on June 4, as confirmed by ET. The couple has ended their relationship after being together for seven years and having two children.
