Not only did Kelly launch her headlining tour for the album in September, but she garnered a GRAMMY nod as well. Nominated for Best New Artist, Kelly proved she has the chops necessary to not only make it but also stand out among her pop vocal contemporaries.

Anyone can write a love song, but it's like the ones that I'm actually telling my story, I think those hit really hard for me." Read more - here.
