Kelly Clarkson has released a live performance video for 'I’d Be Lyin’,' filmed during her Las Vegas residency at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace. The track is expected to lead her upcoming 11th studio album.
Kelly Clarkson isn’t waiting for her next album to share new music with her Las Vegas audience. She’s released a live performance video for "I’d Be Lyin’," recorded during her recent run at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace. The video, released in mid-September 2026, gives fans an early listen to her latest single and confirms it as a new official release, not just a clip from the archives.
Clarkson’s residency at The Colosseum wrapped up its latest set of shows this summer. Caesars Entertainment still lists her among its current resident artists, according to a September 2026 update. For these shows, the venue’s "Studio Sessions" concept turned the stage into a working recording studio, with Clarkson performing alongside her band and backup singers. The new video, released this week, captures the energy and production style that have defined her Vegas performances and shows her ongoing focus on live shows in a city known for its competitive entertainment scene.
Inside the new single and performance
"I’d Be Lyin’" is Clarkson’s first non-holiday single since 2025’s "Where Have You Been." It’s set to lead her upcoming 11th studio album, following 2023’s Chemistry. Clarkson describes the song as having a sarcastic, attitude-driven edge, with verses inspired by Prince’s staccato style and a pop-rock chorus in line with her signature sound.
The video, filmed live at Caesars Palace, shows Clarkson front and center with her band and backup vocalists. The set is designed to look like a recording studio, matching the "Studio Sessions" theme and giving the performance a behind-the-scenes feel. Fans can watch the full video on YouTube at this link.
What’s next for Clarkson in Las Vegas
With "I’d Be Lyin’" out, Clarkson is making it clear she’s not done with Las Vegas. She returns as a coach for the 30th season of NBC’s The Voice, which premieres with a two-hour episode on September 21, 2026, followed by more episodes on September 22 and 23 before settling into its regular Monday slot. This season, promoted as the "30th Season Celebration," features Clarkson alongside Adam Levine and new coaches Queen Latifah and Riley Green, as noted in the Billboard season preview.
Clarkson’s ongoing work with venues like The Colosseum keeps her at the center of Las Vegas entertainment, where residencies remain a major draw. By debuting new material live in Las Vegas instead of waiting for a traditional album release, she’s tapping into the city’s appetite for exclusive, in-person shows. Caesars Entertainment’s latest investor updates continue to include her as a key part of their residency lineup.
Editorial perspective
Clarkson’s choice to premiere "I’d Be Lyin’" live in Las Vegas and release the performance video ahead of her next album is a move that takes advantage of the city’s reputation as a testing ground for major artists. Instead of relying only on streaming or radio, she’s using her residency to try out new songs with audiences who expect more than just the hits. For Las Vegas, this approach keeps the Strip relevant as a place where new music can launch. For Clarkson, it’s a way to shape the next phase of her career directly on stage, in front of a live crowd.
