Kelly Clarkson Walks AMAs Red Carpet with Daughters — as River Makes Friends with Pink and Nicole Kidman

Bring your kids to work day!

Kelly Clarkson hit the 2017 American Music Awards red carpet with two very special dates: her daughters Savannah, 16, and River Rose, 3.

“It’s a girls’ night,” Clarkson, 35, told E! News ahead of the awards show. “They look beautiful. They’re color-coordinated … They’re beautiful, and they love this kind of stuff — more than their mom!”

The “Love So Soft” singer is set to open the AMAs with Pink and will also perform a cut from her latest album, Meaning of Life. In addition to promoting the new LP, Clarkson will join the season 14 cast of The Voice — then hit the road for a world tour in 2018.

The American Idol alum opened up about balancing her career with an equally busy family life. She and husband Brandon Blackstock have four kids: River and 19-month-old son Remington, as well as Savannah and son Seth, 10, from Blackstock’s first marriage.

“Any working mom’s struggle — any working parent’s struggle —is to balance it all. We do our best,” she said, quipping of her kids: “They’ll probably end up in therapy at some point.”
