Kelly Clarkson has sworn off acting for good – because her big-screen debut was “horrible”.

The singer – who starred in comedy musical From Justin to Kelly in 2003, as part of her deal for winning the first series of reality TV show American Idol - has vowed never to make the transition from musician to movie star again.

“Oh it was a movie I had to do, and it was so horrible,” Clarkson tells Attitude magazine. “Whoever won American Idol had to do it. I tried to get out of it legally, because I have no desire to be an actress.

“My favorite actresses are like Meryl Streep and Cate Blanchett and I always hate when I go to movies and I think you just shouldn’t be an actress. It was horrible. I am a horrible actress.

“Whenever it’s like a musical, or a video, I do fine. But urgh – it was horrible. I hated every minute of it. Everyone on the set will tell you that I was nice, I was lovely to work with… I just hated it. I will never be an actress. Ever. That’s what I’m saying.”
