Kelly Clarkson returns to stage as drama with Brooklyn store over toy bird rages

A happy-go-lucky Kelly Clarkson returned to the stage in Las Vegas on Wednesday following her viral feud with a Brooklyn store.

The Grammy winner was all smiles, singing “Stronger (What Doesn’t Kill You),” “My Life Could Suck Without You” and other hits at the corporate event, as seen in a fan’s Instagram video.

The singer, 44, wore velvet flared pants and a sparkling black top with fringed sleeves and shoulder pads for the upbeat performance.

She showed no signs of the recent drama as she enthusiastically greeted attendees at the Allegiant Stadium show.

“Are you all ready for a good night?” “” the “American Idol” alum asked before shouting.

Clarkson has been making headlines all week for speaking out against Art of Play, a curiosity store in Brooklyn Heights, over an alleged “Pretty Woman” moment she experienced while shopping on Saturday.

The tense moment was captured by security camera footage, which journalist Pablo Torre published on Tuesday.

The “Voice” coach, who was seen storming out of the store in the clip, tweeted a scathing criticism after interacting with an allegedly “rude and snobbish” employee.

When the store then insisted that the $15,000 mechanical bird she wanted was not for sale — but that a replica, or similar automaton, had been offered to Clarkson — she fought back via X.

“So you’re not only rude, you’re also a liar,” she wrote. “Got it.”

Art of Play co-owner Adam Rubin called the “ridiculous” feud a “he-said, she-said thing” in an exclusive conversation with Page Six.

“She’s going to say one thing, I’m going to say another,” he noted. “The fact is, nothing happened in the store that was so dramatic that it was worth throwing a Molotov cocktail at a family business.”

Rubin, who raised the bird’s price to $15 million, told us he thought Clarkson was “pissed” that he didn’t get “special treatment.”

We hear the songwriter “must have been furious” to publicly express his frustrations with the outlet, with a source saying Clarkson is “usually quiet.”

The insider said: “She’s not someone who makes a big deal out of nothing.”
