Dancing With the Stars Matchmaker: Possible New Girlfriends for Derek Hough (PHOTOS)

Kelly Clarkson, 29
Kelly isn’t Derek’s usual “type,” which could be a very good thing. She’s beyond adorable and her spunky energy would work well with his own goofy Energizer Bunny showmanship. We can picture Kelly hanging out with Derek and his BFF Mark Ballas. The boys would be jamming on guitars while Kelly belted out … something amazing. We know girlfriend can sing — and she’s part of the American Idol family, so there’s the connection to Julianne and Ryan. (Don’t ask why that’s important. It just is!)
