Kelly Clarkson takes blame for Preds' loss, as she predicted
Kelly Clarkson's "Because of You" suddenly has a whole new meaning.
The pop singer took some unfair heat for the Nashville Predators' Game 4 loss to the Anaheim Ducks after pointing out that she could be blamed for it because she sung the anthem at Bridgestone Arena on Thursday night.
Dear @PredsNHL please win, or people will blame me! #ANAvsNSH Go Preds! pic.twitter.com/EriUgoGNHs

And blame her, they did.
Some appeared serious, and others more tongue in cheek, but the replies predictably poured in when Ducks forward Corey Perry scored the overtime winner.
@kelly_clarkson @PredsNHL Next time just sing the Anthem and try not to Jinx the Team with that comment #KellyClarkson #Preds #StandWithUs #Nashville #Smashville #NHL

Kidding aside, loved your version of the anthem though
Others wanted her to use her supposed powers more often, or in other cities.
@kelly_clarkson @NHL @PredsNHL Sing for Nash more often kelly!!
