It has been reported that Kelly Clarkson who was the winner of the first season of American Idol will sing for Pope Benedict XVI during his six-day visit to the United States in April.
According to Joseph Zwilling who is the spokesman for the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of New York, Kelly will perform a few of her songs at a youth rally at St. Joseph’s Seminary in Yonkers on the 19th April, as well as Ave Maria after the pope arrives.
Kelly said that “I was so excited to be asked to sing for the pope I grew up singing church music, and it’s always been a dream of mine to perform Ave Maria. To have that dream come true on such a special occasion is truly a blessing.”
