played at her own game, and won.
The Oscar winning actress appeared on and agreed to play a game of Sing That Name That Tune which sees a winner crowned after correctly recognizing a song and belting out the rest of the tune before the other.
Kelly was quickly left shamed when Anne guessed her 2004 hit Since U Been Gone before she did.
For the first round, Kelly had stepped up first, but couldn’t name the Billy Joel song, leaving Anne to jump in.
Kelly missed the next song too, giving her competitor even more points.
After an exasperated Kelly asked the band and host Matt Iseman ‘To play a fricking song I’ll know,’ they obliged… only she ended up missing that one too, despite being her own song Since U Been Gone.
Anne figured it out a few seconds in, and quickly began filling in the instantly recognizable chorus, leaving Kelly completely dumbfounded.
The defeated star threw her hands in the air, then fell to her knees before face-planting on stage: ‘How did you know it from just that?’
‘Kelly Clarkson, if you do not understand how much we all love that song,’ the Devil Wears Prada actress replied.
‘Everybody here knew it on the first one. Everybody here knew it! I love that song.’
Matt joked: ‘Anne Hathaway will be doing a Kelly Clarkson tribute show in Vegas!’
Three-time Grammy winning artist Kelly joked that after not getting her own song, she should just call it a day on the daytime talk show she’s hosted since 2019.
‘Should I just quit? Oh my God,’ she said.
Matt interjected: ‘By the way, never fall for Hathaway when she tells you she’s scared to sing!’
‘This is embarrassing! Whatever, I’m so happy for you. Jesus, take the wheel.’
And if losing to her own song wasn’t enough, Matt went a little bit further and said to the audience: ‘And may I remind you, Kelly Clarkson just missed her own song.’
It’s been a busy week for Kelly, who is currently hosting the US answer to Eurovision, The American Song Contest with Snoop Dogg.
However, ratings haven’t quite reached the typical 180 million viewers that tune into Eurovision, with just 2.9 million people tuning into the first round of heats on Monday.
The Kelly Clarkson Show airs weekdays in the US.
