Frequent country music collaborator Kelly Clarkson probably didn't have this unusual birthday gift in mind. Check it out here!

We all know that vocal powerhouse Kelly Clarkson has a healthy sense of humor. In celebration of her 36th birthday, her husband, Brandon Blackstock, and her crew created a really hilarious video montage of the star’s many facial expressions in slow motion.

Of course the clip was shared on the singer’s Instagram account by her loving team…

Y'all, today is a special day!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY KELLY! From, Team KC 🎂 🎉

Oh goodness! That was pretty epic. Besides being given this visual gem, Kelly was showered with love while on the set of The Voice. Check out these two awesome cakes— one for Team Kelly and one quilting themed dessert to mark Kelly’s special day.

Kelly also got extra glitzy for her The Voice duties— working on your birthday doesn’t have to be a drag if you have plenty of sparkle to rock!

Lookin’ flawless, Kelly! On May 20th, the Texan is set to host 2018 Billboard Music Awards at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. The all-genre awards show will broadcast via NBC at 8PM ET. Country music phenoms Sam Hunt and Chris Stapleton are among the most-nominated artists this time around with five nominations each!

In celebration of Kelly’s recent birthday, let’s enjoy Kelly Clarkson and Reba McEntire‘s 2007 “Because Of You” duet. Originally, the song was recorded by Clarkson for her second studio album, 2004’s Breakaway.

Watch Kelly and Reba’s dazzling official “Because Of You” music video below!

“Because Of You” Lyrics

I will not make
The same mistakes that you did
I will not let myself
Cause my heart so much misery
I will not break
The way you did, you fell so hard
I’ve learned the hard way
To never let it get that far
Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side so I don’t get hurt
Because of you
I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
Because of you
I am afraid
I lose my way
And it’s not too long before you point it out
I cannot cry
Because I know that’s weakness in your eyes
I’m forced to fake
A smile, a laugh everyday of my life
My heart can’t possibly break
When it wasn’t even whole to start with
Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side so I don’t get hurt
Because of you
I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
Because of you
I am afraid
I watched you die
I heard you cry every night in your sleep
I was so young
You should have known
Better than to lean on me
You never thought of anyone else
You just saw your pain
And now I cry in the middle of the night
For the same damn thing
Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side so I don’t get hurt
Because of you
I try my hardest just to forget everything
Because of you
I don’t know how to let anyone else in
Because of you
I’m ashamed of my life
Because it’s empty
Because of you
I am afraid
Because of you
Because of you
