Kelly Clarkson Celebrates 20 Years Since 'American Idol' Win

Kelly Clarkson celebrated her 20th year anniversary of winning 'American Idol', and she penned an emotional message. She took to her social media platforms to say:

20 years ago today I won American Idol and it forever changed the course of my life. That moment was the door that opened up so much access and opportunity, and creative partnerships that I will be grateful for all of my days. The family and friendships I have created over these 20 years in music and TV are priceless to me. We only get so many trips around the sun and while I am proud and feel abundantly blessed for the successes and failures that I have learned from, I am most proud and grateful for those friends that have become family. Without them I would not be where I am. I would probably not be here at all. Thank you so much to every single person that voted 20 years ago!
