Inside Kelly Clarkson’s multimillion-dollar property portfolio

Key points

• Kelly Clarkson faces a public dispute with a Brooklyn shop, Art of Play, after she claimed staff treated her condescendingly over a mechanical singing bird. The store disputes her account, saying the item was not for sale and staff offered alternatives.
• Online backlash followed, and surveillance footage of the visit surfaced without audio, leaving the exchange unclear.
• Beyond the controversy, Clarkson has built a substantial property portfolio over her career, including a Toluca Lake estate bought in 2021 and a Montana ranch she called a forever home.
