Kelly Clarkson's magnificent performance of the National Anthem during Indy 500

Singer Kelly Clarkson showcased her incredible talent when she belted out a rousing rendition of the National Anthem.

Clarkson, the winner of the first season of "American Idol," performed at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway for the annual Indy 500 on May 27.

The singer, who was also crowned the winning coach on “The Voice” on May 22, took the stage at the Indy 500 racing event.

The audience witnessed Clarkson give one the best performances of the “Star-Spangled Banner” in the last few years. Read more on our Twitter account @amomama_usa.

The event was attended by more than 20,000 fans. Audiences from around the world can't get enough of her fantastic performance.

The 36-year-old singer is known to possess the uncanny ability to sing any song with accuracy, grace and absolute control and she did precisely that at the Indy 500. 

She managed to exceed the expectations of her fans and netizens applauded her performance.

It was not the first time that Clarkson graced the Speedway with her fantastic performance. She had sung the national anthem at the Indy 500 held in 2011, collaborating with Seal.

Getting a chance to perform the national anthem is considered to be one of the highest privileges that a singer can have in his or her career, and Clarkson gave her best.

Other notable stars who attended the 102nd running of the Indy 500 were actor Chris Hemsworth and Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers.

Comedian-host Nick Cannon and NBA star Victor Oladipo also made an appearance. 

The past couple of months have been fruitful for Kelly Clarkson. She first impressed viewers with her hosting gig at the Billboard Music Awards held on May 20.

Two days later, Clarkson was crowned as the winning coach on the singing reality show “The Voice,” when her protégé Brynn Cartelli won the prize as the youngest finalist and winner in the show's history.

This year's Indy 500 has been in the news for multiple reasons. It was Danica Patrick's last race, and it ended in the same way as her final Daytona 500 race in February: with a crash that wouldn't allow her to finish the race. 

The event also saw the appearance of the B2 Bomber aircraft which left the audience asking for more. The winner of the crash-filled Indy 500 was Will Power of Australia.
