Kelly Clarkson, the first American Idol winner, is in Springfield, Illinois, tonight at the Illinois State Fair. Earlier this afternoon, she stopped on the way from her tour bus to a Starbucks to pose for this shot and sign a CD for me. Earlier this year, her single, "My Life Would Suck Without You," advanced from No. 97 to No. 1 on the Hot 100 chart in its first week of release, breaking the record for the largest leap to the top position in chart history.

About 15 minutes later, I grabbed this photo with Kelly's opening act, singer Eric Hutchinson.
