Anne Hathaway Stuns with Surprise “Since U Been Gone” Performance—Even Outsinging Kelly Clarkson Herself

During a high-energy segment of Sing That Name That Tune, Anne Hathaway delivered a jaw-dropping moment that left everyone—including Kelly Clarkson—completely floored. As the band struck up the opening chords of Clarkson’s iconic hit “Since U Been Gone,” Hathaway buzzed in faster than the song’s original artist and launched into the chorus with full-throttle confidence and rock-star vocals.

Clarkson’s reaction? She literally dropped to the floor in disbelief and mock defeat, as the crowd erupted in cheers. The Les Misérables star took the mic and delivered the anthem with infectious energy and crystal-clear vocals, totally owning the stage.

Instant Classic Reactions & Banter
Clarkson gasped: “How did you know it from just that?”
Hathaway grinned: “If you don’t understand how much we all love that song… everybody here knew it!”
Host Matt Iseman chimed in with a laugh: “Anne Hathaway’s taking her Kelly Clarkson tribute show to Vegas!”
Clarkson, still cracking up, joked: “Should I just quit now? This is so embarrassing.”

It wasn’t just friendly banter—it was an unexpected, TV-gold moment that showed off their chemistry and Hathaway’s sheer talent.

A Reminder: Anne Hathaway Can Really Sing
For those who’ve followed her career, Hathaway’s vocal chops weren’t exactly a surprise. From her Oscar-winning performance in Les Misérables to roles in Ella Enchanted and Rio, she’s proven time and again that she’s more than just an actress—she’s a true performer.

But taking on a powerhouse pop-rock anthem like “Since U Been Gone”—and absolutely nailing it live—was another level. A full mic-drop moment.

The Song That Defined an Era
Released in 2004, “Since U Been Gone” remains one of Kelly Clarkson’s most defining tracks. It reached No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100, won a Grammy for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance, and has been hailed as one of the best pop songs of the 2000s—thanks to its explosive chorus and raw emotion.

So when Hathaway belted it out with pitch-perfect accuracy and stage presence, it wasn’t just impressive—it was a perfect flash of pop nostalgia.

The Internet Reacts
Social media went wild:

“Anne Hathaway is a theater kid—you can’t beat a theater kid at these games (not even Kelly).”
“Anne ATE. That’s it.”
“She’s always been elite, but this pushed her into a new tier.”

Fans couldn’t get enough of her surprising performance—and were quick to remind everyone that Hathaway is not one to underestimate.

More Than a Game—A Viral Moment of Pure Joy
This wasn’t just a talk-show game gone viral—it was a moment of crossover brilliance. It showcased Anne Hathaway’s range, reminded us of Kelly Clarkson’s enduring legacy, and gave the internet something to rally around.

And according to Clarkson herself? Anne might just be her “kryptonite”—a playful admission she doubled down on after losing to her again in a later episode.

Sometimes, the most unforgettable performances come from the most unexpected places. And in this case, Anne Hathaway reminded the world: never sleep on a theater kid.
