Kelly wore a printed red dress and black boots for the soulful performance, which featured some moody lighting. She was backed up by her band Y’all, as well as a backup singer. Kelly showed off her incredible vocal range on the song.

Kelly didn’t have a live audience to watch it, but the virtual fans who were listening certainly seemed to enjoy it. Kelly seemed to enjoy it as well, strutting away from the microphone when the song was over.

Many commenters said Kelly made the song her own, rather than try to one-up Ariana. “I love how no one saying ‘she made it better’ she made it HER OWN,” a fan commented. “Both versions are so different.”

Kelly has also covered Ariana’s song “God Is a Woman” during a concert in 2019. Now all we need is for Kelly and Ariana to perform a duet together. Fingers crossed it happens eventually!
