Kelly Clarkson's debut film From Justin to Kelly was a box office flop
Kelly Clarkson's 2003 film debut, From Justin to Kelly, is noted as a significant box office failure. The musical romantic comedy, starring Clarkson and fellow American Idol finalist Justin Guarini, was produced with a budget of approximately $12 million but only earned $4.9 million at the domestic box office.
Clarkson revealed in a 2019 interview that she did not wish to participate in the film. She stated that she attempted to use legal counsel to exit the project, but was unable to do so because her American Idol contract mandated her participation in the movie. The film currently holds an 8 percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
