Kelly Brianne Clarkson (born April 24, 1982) is an American singer, songwriter and occasional actress. Clarkson came into prominence after becoming the winner of the inaugural season of the television series American Idol in 2002 and later was the runner-up in the television special World Idol in 2003.
In 2003, Clarkson released her debut album, Thankful, which was a commercial success and established herself in the pop music industry. The release of its first single, "A Moment Like This" (2002), broke The Beatles' record for the biggest leap to number one, from 52, in the history of the Billboard Hot 100 chart. After parting ways with her management, Clarkson developed a more rock-oriented music with the release of her critically acclaimed sophomore album, Breakaway (2004), which sold more than 12 million copies worldwide and which garnered Clarkson more worldwide success as a pop rock artist. The album's single, "Because of You" (2005), became the best-selling single by an Idol contestant worldwide. In 2007, Clarkson took full creative control for her third album My December, which had a more rock-inspired sound and was met with controversy and moderate success. Clarkson later returned to a more pop-oriented sound with All I Ever Wanted (2009), which became a commercial and critical success. The album's lead single, "My Life Would Suck Without You" (2009), surpassed "A Moment Like This"'s record for the biggest leap to number one on a single week in the history of the Billboard Hot 100 Chart, a milestone it still holds today. Furthermore, it also became her first number one single in the United Kingdom. Clarkson's fifth studio album, Stronger, was released in 2011, containing elements from synthpop, R&B and country music. The album's single, "Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You)" (2012), became her longest number one single and eventually became her best-selling single in the United States.
Jeremy Charles Robert Clarkson (born 11 April 1960) is an English broadcaster, journalist and writer who specialises in motoring. He is best known for his role on the BBC TV show Top Gear along with co-presenters Richard Hammond and James May. He also writes weekly columns for The Sunday Times and The Sun.
From a career as a local journalist in Northern England, Clarkson rose to public prominence as a presenter of the original format of Top Gear in 1988. Since the mid-1990s, Clarkson has become a recognised public personality, regularly appearing on British television presenting his own shows and appearing as a guest on other shows. As well as motoring, Clarkson has produced programmes and books on subjects such as history and engineering. From 1998 to 2000 he also hosted his own chat show, Clarkson.
His opinionated but humorous tongue-in-cheek writing and presenting style has often generated much public reaction to his viewpoints. His actions both privately and as a Top Gear presenter have also sometimes resulted in criticism from the media, politicians, pressure groups and the public.

Plot
On the eve of John Kerry's 2004 defeat, campaign volunteer John Logue, canvasing in Ohio, says he'll move to Canada if Bush wins. His pledge gets televised, so when John returns to San Francisco - where his old job and girl-friend evaporate - his friends expect him to deliver on the promise. He gets a call from marryacanadian.ca, accepts their invitation to come to Winnipeg, interviews traveling companions, picks Chloe (she with a nose ring), and sets out. Both John and Chloe have secrets, revealed one at a time, and Winnipeg in 2004, with men and women willing to help US ex-pats gain citizenship, may not be what either needs. Echoes of the Vietnam war help them decide.

Destination: Canada
[first lines]::Suburban Man: Can I help you?::John Logue: Hi, I'm John Logue with the Kerry campaign, and we just want to make sure we get all the voters out there. We have you listed as a strong-leaning Kerry household.::Suburban Man: I'm voting for Bush.::John Logue: You are? Sorry, no matter how many times people say that to me, I just can't get over it. It's like I don't have the enzymes to metabolize someone actually saying that to me.
John Logue: If George Dubya Bush gets elected President for another four years, I swear, I promise on my life, that I will move to Canada!
John Logue: Half the county is so stupid they voted for this evil, war-mongering, corrupt moron with Dick Cheney's hand up his ass. And the other half has this self-defeating inferiority complex that we nominated this wooden, unelectable opportunist.
John Logue: I was just so excited to see what would happen to that look on Bush's face when he realized he was finished. You know, he's got that look, that... That kind of... Curious George getting a bad hand job.
Hal: What about your promise?::John Logue: What promise?::Hal: Don't fucking play dumb.::John Logue: Oh, they knew I wasn't serious.::Hal: You swore on your life, John. You were on the news.::John Logue: It was local.::Hal: You swore on your life.::John Logue: I'm not fucking moving to Canada, Hal.
John Logue: My moving to Canada is a protest against the recently re-elected administration.::Chloe Hamon: Why? Are you somebody I should know or something?::John Logue: What do you mean?::Chloe Hamon: I mean, who's gonna care if you move to Canada?::John Logue: Well, you don't have to be a somebody to make a political statement. But, yeah, actually, the local news did a piece on me and I write a blog called the Donkey Revolution.
John Logue: I'm going up there to make a political statement.::Hal: Please. Did Gandhi go on a sex-fueled road trip with some little communist hottie to protest British occupation?::John Logue: No.::Hal: No. He fasted for weeks. Martin Luther King, did he desegregate the South by boning white women? I don't think so. He marched, he got spit on, he got attacked by dogs and honky policemen, and then he got shot. You're going on what I believe will be described by historians as a sex romp.
John Logue: Mom, look, I'm in Oregon. It's hard to predict exactly when I'm going to arrive in Eastern Washington State, eight hours away. I will call you when I'm closer, okay?::John Logue: Just me and a friend. And she has blue hair, and she might be a lesbian. I'm just gonna to tell you this now so you don't faint when you see her. Would you just tell Dad when you see her, so he doesn't...
Chloe Hamon: Stop the car!::John Logue: We're already here, okay? Relax, we'll talk about it when we get to the other side.::Chloe Hamon: No, I can't talk about when I get to the other side, because I can't go to the other side.::John Logue: Now, what is so godddam important? What?::Chloe Hamon: I'm in the Army.
John Logue: What about you and me?::Chloe Hamon: Seriously?::John Logue: Yeah.::Chloe Hamon: "Politics makes strange bedfellows." I read that on the DonkeyRevolution.com
