During her concert at New York City’s Radio City Music Hall last Thursday, Kelly Clarkson treated fans to a cover of Nick Jonas’ hit “Jealous.”

“I’m so excited to sing this song because I love this guy,” Clarkson says. “We’re going to be touring together in Canada after we finish here in the States.”

The _American Idol_ alum also explained that this was a special request from a fan named Danielle in the audience.

Sadly, she didn’t bring Jonas himself on stage to join her like Taylor Swift [did recently](http://time.com/3955453/taylor-swift-nick-jonas-jealous/) — but it was still pretty good.

## Transcript

So, Kelly Clarkson is pretty amazing at singing duets. Remember her beautiful country hit " Don't You Want To Stay" with Jason Aldean? Yeah. Incredible! But she took her duet skills to a whole new level Monday on the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. [ MUSIC ] Look me in the eye. Yeah, you're buckle with the weight of the world. That's right. Kelly and Jimmy tackled a pretty extensive history of pop duets during their little number including Elton John, and Keke Dees, Sonny and Cher, and even Paula Abdul and MC Skat Cat -. And we finally got to witness a vocal impression Jimmy just couldn't nail.

Aaron Neville. [ MUSIC ] That's a swing and a miss there, Jimmy. A sing and a miss. But at least Kelly helped him totally rock the rest of the duets. And pretty much everyone loved it. Just Jared called the melody epic. And UPROXX claimed it's either everything you love or hate about a Fallon segment. Well if Kelly still sounds this amazing in other people's songs, we cannot wait to dig into her newest album. Piece by Piece will be available in stores and online Tuesday.
