  "account": "Four years have passed since Anne Hathaway made headlines for outperforming Kelly Clarkson in a game of \"Sing That Name That Tune.\" Despite the incident occurring in 2022, Clarkson remains irritated over the event. In a recent interview with Betches, Clarkson participated in a \"How online are you?\" challenge, revealing that she is not very active online. However, the interview also included a trivia segment focused on Clarkson herself. Upon being asked which song Hathaway had beaten her to, Clarkson quickly answered: \"Since U Been Gone.\" She immediately followed up with, \"I'm thinking she was tipped off.\" This reference refers to the 2022 incident where Hathaway took the lead in the game, prompting Clarkson to express her frustration: \"Can you play a fricking song I'll know?!\" Clarkson's irritation was evident, as she later commented, \"Should I just quit?!\" This video of the encounter is no longer available on the official \"Kelly Clarkson Show\" YouTube channel. The story of Clarkson's lingering resentment over Hathaway's victory in the song game continues to be discussed in media outlets like TheWrap.",
