When Kelly Clarkson returned to 'American Idol' to perform and serve as a guest judge at the first live show of the 15th season, she brought someone else along with her.
The 33-year-old pop star, who is the first winner of the reality series, showed her baby bump on the sets, reports E! Online.
Clarkson also posted on her Instagram account a photo showing her grinning and holding a cut-out reading the hashtag '#idol' with one hand, while she placed the other near her baby bump.
She captioned the picture, "I'm baaaack!!! See y'all tonight! #KellyOnIdol."
Clarkson, who is in third trimester of her pregnancy, revealed last August that she is expecting her second child with husband Brandon Blackstock.
