Kelly Clarkson has released her new single, “I’d Be Lyin’,” marking her first new music of 2026 and her first release since 2025’s “Where Have You Been.” The release comes alongside the latest run of Clarkson’s “Studio Sessions” residency at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, with multiple performances through mid-August. Clarkson said the song centers on the frustration of having words misunderstood, explaining that telling people only what they want to hear would mean “I’d Be Lyin’.” The single is expected to serve as the lead release from Clarkson’s forthcoming 11th studio album, although additional details have not yet been announced. Clarkson is preparing to conclude The Kelly Clarkson Show after its seventh season later this year while also returning as a coach for Season 30 of The Voice.
