As controversial as it is, KELLY CLARKSON isn't afraid to admit publicly that she spanks her 3-year-old daughter River Rose.
In a recent radio interview, she said, quote, "I'm not above a spanking, which people aren't necessarily into. And I don't mean like hitting her hard, I just mean a spanking.
"My parents spanked me and I did fine in life and I feel fine about it."
She added, quote, "I'm from the South, y'all, so we get spankings. My mom would call the principal if I ever ended up in the principal's office and give permission for her to spank me."
Kelly and her husband Brandon Blackstock also have a 1-year-old son named Remington Alexander.
What do you think, is spanking ok?
