Kelly Clarkson - whose new album All I Ever Wanted (RCA) drops March 10 - has set another record on the Billboard Hot 100! Her new single, "My Life Would Suck Without You," catapulted from number 97 all the way to number one! That's the highest climb a song has ever made to number one!

"My Life Would Suck Without You" is the second number one single from the former American Idol. Her AI victory song, "A Moment Like This," went number one back in 2002.
