Kelly Clarkson is elated to be performing on Saturday Night Live this weekend.

The Stronger singer will appear on the American sketch comedy show as a musical special guest for the third time.

Kelly feels honoured to have been invited to the show again.

"I'm a three-peat! I've made it," Kelly gushed to MTV News. "It's a fun environment. You don't feel like you're working. It's a legendary stage! I've been watching it since I was a kid. I think we all have."

Kelly feels incredibly comfortable with the cast and crew on set. The singer respects their courtesy.

"This is like a family place. Everybody here is nice to people who aren't famous," Kelly explained. "You know what I'm saying? They're nice to my makeup artist, my hair guy... I hate people who are just nice to famous people. It bothers me. I want to kick 'em."

Kelly performed on SNL for the first time in 2005. The songstress has fond memories of the skits she acted in with former castmembers Horatio Sanz and Amy Poehler.

"I remember I was so excited," Kelly recalled. "First of all, Horatio? He's hard to do skits with because you laugh 'cause he laughs all the time at [himself]. So you're laughing 'cause he's laughing, and I'm trying to keep a straight face. I had so much fun."
