KELLY CLARKSON
By Ray Waddell, Nashville
Kelly Clarkson has signed with Nashville-based Starstruck Entertainment for management. Clarkson's career was previously handled by Jeff Kwatinetz at the Firm in Los Angeles.
Starstruck Entertainment is currently home to country artists Reba McEntire and Blake Shelton. Narvel Blackstock, CEO of Starstruck and McEntire's husband, will serve as Clarkson's personal manager. Trisha McClanahan, Starstruck VP of marketing, will assist with day-to-day operations.
Startstruck Entertainment was founded by Blackstock in 1988 as a full service entertainment conglomerate. McClanahan joined the company in 1990. Starstruck Management Group is the artist management arm of the corporation.
Clarkson's latest RCA album "My December" was released June 26. She will continue to be booked by Creative Artists Agency in Los Angeles.

Not surprised. I figured when I heard she left her management behind that Reba's management would be where she'd go. Would have been more surprised if she just picked up someone out of thin air.
Hold onto that friendship with Reba. Boys come and they go, but friends are forever...
