Kelly Clarkson Drops Glam Video For ‘Where Have You Been' Single
Kelly Clarkson believes in love again. After dropping the new single 'Where Have You Been' on Friday (May 2), the singer followed up with a high-gloss video for the song in which she rocks a colorful, glittery jumpsuit with billowing arms that looks straight out of the 1970s Cher Las Vegas collection.
'I like my freedom but I'd trade some for a kiss/ Little do you know how long I've been waitin' for this/ When it came to my hopes, well, they left skies I won't miss/ I was getting so lonely I didn't count on, count on this,' Clarkson sings in the visual for the power ballad that shifts from glam shots of the singer and daytime talk show host to dramatic silhouette images of her band members in shadow.

The hip-swaying, emotion-packed weeper about finding your soul mate after years of searching was inspired by the onscreen romance between Meryl Streep and Martin Short's characters in the hit Hulu series Only Murders in the Building. 'It's Martin Short's face,' she told listeners on her SiriusXM show last week. 'He says to Meryl Streep's character in the show, 'Where have you been?''
The song's soaring chorus says it all: 'Where have you been?/ What took so long?/ I thought I'd found you/ Found out I was wrong/ I almost gave us/ My light was so dim/ And now, here you are/ Where have you been?'
'He's like in awe, and I was like, 'Has anyone written a song?'' Clarkson continued on the episode that aired the day before the song's release. 'Because the song is happy, 'cause it's like you found something that you thought was almost basically a unicorn and did not exist.' Streep and Short's characters got married in the fourth season of the murder mystery show and, in a too-sweet parallel, the two actors are rumored to be dating for real as well.
Clarkson's band shines in the second half of the video, with the stage bathed in golden light as they come into focus and the singer belts out one of her signature clear-as-a-bell high notes.

Miley Cyrus Says Disney Stopped Her from Singing ‘Hannah Montana' Songs After Series Ended: ‘Not Like I Wanted to'
Miley Cyrus is opening up about her music career after leaving Hannah Montana behind. In a recent interview on The Ringer podcast, the 32-year-old pop star and actress revealed that following the end of the hit Disney Channel series in 2011, she was banned from performing any songs associated with the teen sitcom. More from Billboard Miley Cyrus' 'Something Beautiful' Album: All 13 Tracks Ranked Chiquis Writes Her First Children's Book & More Uplifting Moments in Latin Music How 'Real Women Have Curves' Went From 2002 Film to 2025 Tony Nominee: 'It's Like It Should Have Always Been a Musical' 'After I left Disney, I wasn't allowed to perform any of the Hannah Montana music,' Cyrus said. 'It's not like I wanted to, I mean performing 'The Best Of Both Worlds' between 'We Can't Stop' and 'Wrecking Ball,' wouldn't have really made sense.' But it wasn't easy being cut off from music so tied to her early identity. 'It was still sad knowing those songs have my voice, my face, and I wasn't allowed to sing them,' she said. That changed in August 2024, when Cyrus was officially inducted as a Disney Legend during a ceremony at the Honda Center in Anaheim, Calif. 'After being inducted as a Disney Legend, I was given permission to perform those songs in the future, which is pretty cool,' she told The Ringer. Hannah Montana debuted in March 2006 and quickly became a cultural phenomenon, premiering to a record-breaking 5.4 million viewers, the highest in Disney Channel's history at the time. Cyrus, then 13 years old, played Miley Stewart, a teenager living a secret double life as a Malibu student by day and global pop star by night. Under her TV alter ego, Cyrus charted 20 songs on the Billboard Hot 100 as Hannah Montana. 'He Could Be the One' became the biggest hit, reaching the top 10 in 2009. The show's theme song, 'The Best of Both Worlds,' also made the chart, reaching No. 92 in 2006. Cyrus also earned three No. 1 albums on the Billboard 200 as Hannah Montana: Hannah Montana, Hannah Montana 2/Meet Miley Cyrus, and Hannah Montana: The Movie soundtrack.
