Kelly Clarkson says she wants her kids to steer clear of the music industry: ‘I seriously hope they are tone deaf’
Kelly Clarkson has a strange wish — she hopes her children will be tone deaf.
The 36-year-old American Idol champion said at a press conference Tuesday after The Voice season finale that she hopes her kids won’t follow her career choices.
‘I hope they are teachers or doctors or something… It’s a hard industry,’ she said, according to People.

The finale of the popular singing competition ended with 16-year-old Chevel Shepherd winning it all.
That makes two years in a row that Kelly has coached the winning contestant.
But she doesn’t think her own children should follow in that path.

Kelly’s children, daughter River Rose, 4, and son Remington ‘Remy’ Alexander, 2, are still a long way off from having to worry about their future.
Instead of her children, Kelly’s contestants on The Voice end up getting the mothering treatment.
‘I get so excited and I’m afraid of what kind of mom I would be,’ she said. ‘She takes on a stage mom role with the successful contestants, though she worries about pushing too much.

‘I think I would be my mom,’ Kelly said. ‘She would be like, ‘I have heard better but it was solid!’
Although Kelly hopes her kids might grow up to be doctors or lawyers, earlier this year she set her sights higher when she said said her daughter would grow up to be a CEO.
‘She will run a company one day because there’s no way she’s gonna work for anyone,’ said the Moment Like This singer.
Kelly will rejoin The Voice when it returns to NBC on February 25, 2019.
