Kelly Clarkson Working on "Something Different" for New Album

Even though Kelly Clarkson is still out on the road in support of her latest release All I Ever Wanted through March 2010, that doesn't mean she's not already thinking about what comes next. In a recent radio interview with Kiss FM in Chicago, the chatty singer revealed that she's already begun work on her 5th studio album. So what can fans expect?

According to Clarkson, "something different." Well that's insightful, no? Thanks, Kel! The real interesting tidbit is that she disclosed that she might not have time to write the whole album as a result of her tour schedule (read: Clive won't let her). Fans have come to expect a certain number of Clarkson penned tracks on her albums, though you get the sense that shes learning to play nice with her label honcho by mixing her own work with the industry's hottest producers. Can we say "My Life Would Suck Without You?"

Knowing the Clarkson, she's still got a few tricks up her sleeves. I, personally, would love to see her do an all acoustic/stripped down record. Check out the interview here.
