Kelly Clarkson paid tribute to the late jazz singer Etta James at her show in New York on Saturday night.

The singer ori­gin­ally audi­tioned for American Idol with James’ song ‘At Last’.

Claiming that this time she wanted to sing her “favourite”, Clarkson performed ‘I Would Rather Go Blind’ at the end of her set at Radio City Music Hall in New York.

Etta James died of com­plic­a­tions related to leukemia on Friday.

You can watch a YouTube clip of Kelly's tribute here.
