Clarkson Performs @ AI, Upset About Writing Sexism

First a message of me (the mod): I am really amazed of how "Because of You" still manages to be in the LSI rank top 10, while it was released at the end of 2005! Even now it's higher (#3) than "Never Again" (#7).

"American Idol" will bring back its first victor, Kelly Clarkson, for Wednesday's season finale. Clarkson is scheduled to sing her new single, "Never Again."

The finale will run from 8 to 10 p.m., with the announcement of this year's winner -- Jordin Sparks or Blake Lewis -- at the end. The last show in the "Idol" season tends to drag. But if you want more "Idol," you can start watching at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday. "American Idol: Red Carpet Spectacular" will let you see the hoopla outside the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood, Calif. The program can be seen locally on WOFL-Channel 35.

Pop star Kelly Clarkson was staggered when a sexist music executive let her know he wasn't a fan of women writing songs.

The singer, who recently won an ASCAP award for penning the Song of the Year for "Because of You," reveals some executives still refuse to take her seriously as a songwriter.

One recent conference call made her realize just how hard it is to break through and become respected.

She tells Entertainment Weekly magazine, "Everybody doesn't like me writing all the time, no matter how many number ones you write. It's clearly like yelling at a brick wall."

"It's because I'm a woman ... a young woman. I literally heard somebody say it. They didn't know I was on the phone. ... I hung up."

"I was like, 'I can't even address that. ... That was the most ignorant thing I've ever heard."
