For the first time since winning the initial American Idol in 2002, Kelly Clarkson is a free agent, having recently completed her six album deal with RCA.

In a new interview with Rolling Stone, Clarkson expands on her pro-weed stance, clarifying that she isn’t a pothead and noting that she definitely likes to drink.
“I don’t know anybody in rehab because of pot,” Clarkson said. “And I know a ton of people that have died either from liver cancer or behind the wheel.
