She is also a coach on The Voice. She has 11 top-10 singles in the United States and nine top-10 singles in the United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia. 

Clarkson said that she was surprised by her selection in an interview with Access Daily’s Mario Lopez and Kit Hoover. “I had mixed feelings. I was like, ‘Now, wait, I’m not involved in sports ball whatsoever. Shouldn’t you ask someone who’s involved in the sports community?” she said.
