Kelly rose to fame in 2002 after winning the first season of American Idol.
She has previously spoken out about how she was publicly criticized about her weight while she was on the show.
The Miss Independent singer revealed on The Ellen DeGeneres Show in 2015 that people would constantly mention it.
“I was the biggest girl in the [American Idol cast] too,” Kelly said. “And I wasn’t big, but people would call me big … I’ve kind of always gotten that.”
She said: “I think what hurts my feelings for people is that I’ll have a meet and greet after the show, and a girl who’s bigger than me will be in the meet and greet and be like, ‘Wow, if they think you’re big, I must be so fat to them.’
“And it’s like, you’re just who you are. We are who we are — whatever size.”

One year later after the birth of her son, Kelly joined The Voice as a judge.
She later admitted to Glamour UK that she was at her “heaviest point” then.
Fans of the singer were stunned when she debuted a smaller figure in 2018 and claimed she changed her diet to foods organic foods.
Around that time Kelly said: “It’s when I’m fat that I’m happy. People think, ‘Oh, there’s something wrong with her. She’s putting on weight,’” she told Redbook.
“I’m like, ‘Oh, no! I’m sorry, but that represents happiness in my emotional world,

“A slay from Queen Kelly,” added a third.
Kelly recently spoke to Extra and revealed that she found a way to cope with her thyroid issues which first emerged in 2006.
She said she read a book called “The Plant Paradox,” by Steven R. Gundry, MD.
The book said to eat organically, which Kelly claimed made her drop 37 pounds.
“I know the industry loves the weight gone, but for me it wasn’t (about) the weight,” she said. “For me, it was ‘I’m not on my medicine any more.'”
“I don’t really take medicine unless I absolutely need it,” said the singer.
She also said her divorce from her ex, Brandon, was really “difficult” which made it difficult to manage her weight previously.
