Clive from New York

It looks like Clive Davis, along with many other people with ears, are not waiting for Kelly Clarkson's new album, My December, with baited breath. Says Page Six:

Davis, who runs Sony BMG, slammed Clarkson at a company retreat in April, saying she can't produce hits.

And music industry insiders were dumbfounded when Davis took the stage during the 'American Idol' finale to plug Taylor Hicks and Katharine McPhee's new singles, but failed to mention Clarkson's third album, 'My December,' which debuts in June.

Our insider said, 'She wrote all of the second album herself - including the hits ‘Because of You,' ‘Behind These Hazel Eyes' and ‘Walk Away.' Clive hated ‘Because of You' so much, he would routinely mock it in meetings. It was one of her most successful singles.'

The source added, 'Kelly wanted to make a deeply personal record…'

Let's hope Kelly delves as deep into her personal life for My December as she did to come up with pure gold like this:

I waited here for you,
Like a kid waiting after school
So tell me how come you never showed?

and

I wanna love
I want a fire
To feel the burn

Clive Davis has been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and he's been a heavyweight in music since before Kelly Clarkson was born. Does anyone really think he gets his kicks by picking on anxious young girls? I'd probably go with him on this one. It's generally wise to go with someone with experience, wisdom, talent and success over…uh…a game show winner.
