Kelly Clarkson’s daughter, River Rose, joined the star on stage for a surprise performance during her Las Vegas residency on Friday.

The Stronger singer, 43, and the 11-year-old thrilled fans while performing a duet at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace. 

The sweet mother-daughter duo sang Clarkson’s ‘Heartbeat Song’ while wearing matching bedazzled t-shirts and bell bottom pants in a video shared on X.

Kelly — who emotionally postponed the opening shows of her residency at the last minute — and River were seen swaying together while holding microphones. 

At one point the proud mom hugged her daughter, whom she shares with ex-husband Brandon Blackstock, 48, along with son Remington Alexander Blackstock, 9. 

The fan who posted the clip revealed that Clarkson told the audience before the duet: ‘So my daughter River Rose said to me, “I wanna sing tonight!”‘

Clarkson and her daughter previously performed the song together during a Las Vegas concert in August 2023. 

At the time the singer noted that River had been ‘jamming out to the song since she was a baby.’

She added that her daughter ‘loves this song so much.’

Clarkson officially kicked off her much-awaited Vegas residency last Friday – just one week after angering fans by canceling shows last minute.

Along with performing hits for the crowd, the star also apologized for canceling the opening two shows of her residency.

In a TikTok video taken by a concertgoer, Clarkson expressed, ‘Man, I’m so sorry if some of y’all had [tickets to] last weekend’s shows.

‘I’m so sorry. We can’t help our bodies sometimes, and that happens, but thank you for showing up. We’re so excited.’

Kelly previously took to Instagram just 90 minutes before her first scheduled show and explained she was ‘devastated’ to postpone the concerts following grueling rehearsals.

Clarkson penned to her fans in a statement: ‘We have been working 24/7 to make Studio Sessions the most intimate and extraordinary experience with and for my incredible fans.’

‘I am beyond grateful that you always show up for me and I am devastated to have to postpone tonight and tomorrow’s opening at Caesars.’

Kelly said that both the ‘prep and rehearsals have taken a toll on my voice’ and that she wants ‘the shows to be perfect for y’all.’

She added, ‘I need to protect myself from doing serious damage so I am taking this weekend and next week to rest up so that we can deliver what you all deserve.’

‘The show is truly incredible. The musicians and singers are outstanding, and I want us all to start out strong.’

In conclusion, the star wrote, ‘I can’t wait to be back next weekend and show y’all what we’ve been working on.’

Only a few hours before the shock announcement, Clarkson had uploaded behind-the-scenes photos of herself preparing for the residency with the caption, ‘TONIGHT!!’

Fans were left ‘bummed’ over the sudden cancelation while others offered words of support to the Because of You singer in the comment section.

One penned, ‘Totally bummed that we flew all the way to Vegas only to find out that the show was cancelled 1 1/2 hours prior to show time. So so sad!!’ and another added, ‘I’m outside the doors,’ followed by crying face emojis.

The performer announced her Las Vegas residency at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace earlier this year in February. It came after she hosted a residency at Planet Hollywood Resort from 2023-2024.

This year’s residency had been slated to kick off on Fourth of July followed by another performance the next day.

Clarkson is currently co-parenting with ex-husband Blackstock.

She and the talent exec were married for nearly seven years before she filed for divorce in June 2020, which was finalized in 2022.
