Kelly Clarkson went makeup-free on Instagram this Friday while quashing rumors that her Las Vegas shows will kick off a full tour.

The 41-year-old songstress announced this March that she will play 10 concerts at Planet Hollywood's Bakkt Theater in July and August.

Fans began speculating that the Sin City engagement might be a teaser for a longer tour that Kelly would announce at a later date.

However she fired up her social media to put a stop to the conjecture, reminding the public she has 'a nine-to-fiver' in the form of her daytime talk show.

Along with her series - production of which is currently on hold for the Hollywood writers' strike - she noted she is also occupied with her two young children.
