Plenty of parenting books probably say babies need some TLC, but Kelly Clarkson took the idea a little too literally. The first-time mommy, 32, who welcomed her daughter River Rose in June with hubby Brandon Blackstock, tweeted on Sunday, Sept. 21 about her unusual parenting tactics.
“Ran out of songs 2 sing while trying 2 put my little girl 2 sleep & she finally nods off after ‘Silly Ho’ by TLC #shecantunderstandthelyrics,” the American Idol alum tweeted.
Taken off their FanMail album, the lesser-known 1998 single from the beloved R&B trio TLC, features the lyrics, “I ain’t never been no silly ho waiting for your call” and “I ain’t never been that chicken head to wake up in your bed after every club or two. Wanna be the one in that miniskirt always wanna flirt with every player on the team.”
When she’s not dishing out ‘90s jams, Clarkson — whose stepmother-in-law is Reba McEntire — is exposing her infant daughter to some classic country tunes. Earlier this month she took her 4-month-old baby girl to her first concert when she performed with Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood in Illinois.
“Got 2 sing with @TYcom tonight in Chicago & watched her and Garth as well! Amazing show! It was River's 1st concert!" she captioned a picture via Twitter of her precious River wearing bedazzled headphones.
