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.
I nominate @kelly_clarkson for every national anthem ever from this day forward. #indianapolis500

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.
