I’d consider doing a duet with her — with such a powerhouse vocal that she has. I think she and I could do something special together.”

During their segment, unbeknownst to Clarkson, Zeiders’ team brought a shirtless photo to display on the big screen that left her flustered.

“Oh s—,” Clarkson said, reacting to the photo of him playing lacrosse, to which Zeiders responded, “I might have to take the jacket off.”Clarkson added, “I need to be prepared for that. Well, that’s nice.”

Zeiders revealed afterward that he was nervous for the interview.

Zeiders said the responses have not gone unnoticed.
