Kelly Rowland remains one of two surviving members from Destiny's Child who has escaped Beyoncé's mandibles alive and well (rest in pieces, LeToya, LaTavia, and Farrah). And in many ways, Rowland, very much like that new Mariah Carey song, Robert Pattinson stalkers, and pay-per-pee airplane toilets, embodies the American spirit. Reaching for the stars, Kelly Rowland has to be content with nursing the scrapes and bruises incurred while washing ashore with the rest of the rubble.

But even if into its first season, The Fashion Show has failed to capture hearts like Project Runway -- and has somehow managed to present competing designers more venal than Kenley Collins and the rest of PR's season five crew -- and further, courts the storm clouds of cancellation, host Rowland couldn't be looking sunnier. Maybe it has something to do with getting out from Father Knowles' thumb. And the fact that since then, she's been fronting this little gem in the UK.

You see, while she's been parading in front of American TV cameras as a dubious authority on high fashion, she's also been moonlighting across the pond in as a showstopping diva. Sure, the song is throwaway and eerily reminiscent of 1990 hackjobs like this. But it also looks poised to summit the top of the British charts this weekend.

Further good news is that Beyoncé's babyphobic ways will give Ms. Kelly a notable advantage as the two compete for headlines and that space in the public's chest cavity that once used to be occupied by a beating heart. As it turns out, one of Rowland's deepest desires is also the exact same thing that tends to push celebrities to the top of the A-list: adoption.
