Even if you didn’t watch the 2018 Super Bowl, chances are you probably saw some of the epic commercials that so many people look forward to watching during the broadcast.

One of those commercials starred Blake Shelton, Adam Levine, Alicia Keys, and Kelly Clarkson, who were promoting the 14th season of The Voice with in a very comical way.

It was filmed in a country setting with a huge field and a “country porch.” Since Shelton and Clarkson are pretty country, Levine and Keys had to channel their inner Southerner to keep up with the native Oklahoman and Texan.

When Clarkson appeared in the video, she sang, “And me, Kelly Clarkson, walking in a really, really, really, long fabric train,” before being joined by a choir of people, country singer Kelsea Ballerini thought that the scene looked all too familiar.

In her music video for “Peter Pan,” Ballerini wore a “really, really, really long fabric train,” and felt that her good friend was poking fun at her!

If you’re gonna get made fun of, better hope it’s by the Queen [Kelly Clarkson],” she tweeted with two funny emojis.

Check out the screenshots below from both videos for reference.

Clarkson replied to Ballerini’s accusations just a couple hours later, tweeting, “Okay, swear I never saw that video and that this was not my concept hahaha but damn I just watched your video and I’m dying laughing because it does appear as if we were poking fun at you! You’re my girl! I would have at least told you beforehand.”

Clarkson almost immediately replied, saying, “Okay ??? I swear I never saw that video and that this was not my concept hahaha but damn I just watched your video and I’m dying laughing because it does appear as if we were poking fun at you ? you’re my girl! I would have at least told you beforehand?”

Clearly, there is no bad blood between the two singers, especially since Clarkson took Ballerini out on her most recent tour!
