I have to start off by saying that I too am very disappointed that there are no music videos on the DVD. I swear I remember hearing that there were going to be videos. Nevertheless, I think the DVD succeeds on its own merit. The documentary itself is very interesting and I feel like I know Kelly a lot better after watching it. By the way, the six music tracks they were referring to were included in the documentary. They were played during the documentary. I definitely think the DVD should have included music videos, or at least more special features. It is still a good purchase if you are a Kelly Clarkson fan, but don't buy it if you want music videos.

Kelly Clarkson's Behind Hazel Eyes DOES NOT contain any of her music videos or any live performances. It is a documentary, behind the scene look at Kelly's life that any true fan will enjoy. Kelly takes you back home to Texas, bowling with her friends, camping in California and inside the recording studios. Below is a short description of each scene. I would recommend this DVD to any Kelly fan out there who is looking to get to know Kelly Clarkson the Texan girl and not Kelly Clarkson the star.

DVD Index:
*Back to Elementary School - a tour of her elementary school it was when she first got on stage, I think it was for a talent show...she reenacts her elementary school dance performance of Prince "When Doves Cry." I must say, quit embarrassing and I hope Prince never sees that but hey at least she had the courage to get on that stage and dance! Kelly also give you a tour of the gym and show you why she is the jump rope queen.
*High School - just an outside tour
*Miss Glenn - the teacher who discovered Kelly's singing talents, super sweet lady. After this segment there is a slideshow of photos with her friends.
*First Jobs - wow this girl had a lot and I mean a lot of jobs. Kelly takes you to the zoo, another one of her old jobs along with her brother, they got to feed the giraffes, apparently this reminds her of how one of her friends eat wings.
*Back to Texas - picking up bakes goods
*Time Off - Kelly takes you to go bowling, let's just say she isn't very good however it's fun to watch!
*Gone Camping - this segment is hilarious. See for yourself how long it took for them to set up a tent and watch Kelly "try" to start a fire using rocks.
*On The Red Carpet - Princess Diary 2 premiere at Disneyland, walking the red carpet posing for photographers and fans
Photo Shoot - go behind the scene with her on a photo shoot for her album
*In The Writing Zone - Kelly explains her writing process
*In The Studio - recording Because of You in the studio and explanation of the song
*I'd Rather Be Performing - a short clip of "Beautiful Disaster" live

DVD Special Features:
*Making of "Breakaway" - there is no video of this just a behind the scene the making of "Breakaway"
*Bloopers - too many funny moments to list
*Kelly's Camping Camera - this is a classic, they decided to complain about each other (joke of course) and Kelly is disappointed in herself for dropping the ham and they do a Blaire Witch thing at the end.

Hello,Needless to say I'm a Kelly fan, I think this dvd successfuly gives you behind the fame access, and you get to see happy go lucky Kelly. It was fun to see her interact with her friends, and teachers, and see her siginging, and chatting, and take you to her home town. They are silly and funny on their camping trip.This video has bits of professional glitz, blended into a down to earth doccumentry.As she walked through her school, Kelly reflects on her younger years, and really looks like she enjoys telling her stories. Miss Clarkson gets so caught up in story telling that her neat Texen accent becomes more noticable. You feel almost like your with her walking the halls of her school.Kelly Clarkson, Behind Hazel Eyes, has great intro music on the main menu page, with a beautiful cover. Be prepared the main menu is VERY visualy active!I gave this dvd four stars because it does kind of give you the idea Hazel Eyes will have music videos included. Usualy when a DVD says "Making of Breakaway music video" A person expects to have said video included. If you want a relaxing, slow pace, journy of clips of with Kelly, this is an enjoyable welcome addition.You go girl!!!!!!

I bought this dvd for my sister for her birthday, i was hoping it would have videos or something. turns out i didn't but it had the songs as background music. However if you're a fan you should buy this, because it shows stuff that you wouldn't see on T.V., not to mention she's a hottie, so that's cool. The special features kinda suck though. I liked this dvd because she's hot, but if you're a real fan you'll like it because it's her

The back cover represents content includes several songs which are not on this dvd. This is only a documentary with no music.

I really feel that the advertising for this DVD is Deceiving! They advertise this DVD as having 5 Music Videos but there are NO MUSIC VIDEOS! I dont see how they can get away with this! I Love Kelly Clarkson and Think that she is one of The Greatest Vocalist Out there today but I am VERY DISSAPOINTED with this DVD!

NO videos and lots of boring fillers. I like Kelly's singing but who cares about her high school teachers? Unless you have a fatal attraction to Kelly I can't imagine anyone being interested in this DVD. I threw mine away because no one wants to buy it used-- there are a ton available and no one buying.

we bought this dvd for our daughter and even tho it was cute we were dissapointed that they did not put any music videos or live performances on it.

we read the back and expected more, our daughter will probably like it but she will want the music also

I don't understand what some people are so upset about. I knew this was going to be an info on Kelly DVD instead of a compilation of her videos. The Behind These Hazel Eyes video hasn't even been released yet. How can you expect it to be released on DVD? This DVD is exactly what I expected (because I actually check on things I buy unlike others it seems) and I loved it.

Great info on Kelly's past and what she does outside the music industry. Ranging from how she 1st got into singing, her high school memories, and talking about all the jobs she's had. The DVD is meant to show us what's pushing her. What she's all about. HENCE THE TITLE BEHIND HAZEL EYES.

And "tracks" are not videos people. Next time do a little checking on what you're buying. And stop claiming false advertising as well. The back said "tracks" and it has "tracks". Don't give it a bad rating because you don't know the difference.

Hi, first of all let me say that i am a big fan of kelly's, and this review is not intended to bash her, but the dvd itself. I just bought it today 3/29 just released, and was expecting music videos on the dvd, not only from the other reviewer's stating that there were music videos on it, although i'm not sure where they got that info. since their reviews were dated earlier this month, before this dvd was released, but also because on the back of the dvd box it says "This dvd includes six featured music tracks, Breakaway, beautiful disater, since you've been gone, because of you, behind these hazel eyes, and miss independent. "
now all i can seem to find on the dvd, regular chapters and extra's, are a brief performance of Beautiful disaster, and some behind the scenes on the making of the Breakaway music video.
The rest of the dvd consists of kelly going places, at home, etc... kinda like a MTV Diary, episode.
If there are no videos on this dvd, the description on the back SHOULD NOT, make it sound as if there are!!!
Kelly's other dvd, has PLENTY of music videos, and complete live performances. I dont know why this dvd is such a change, and a big misleading dissapointment!!! If there is anyone outhere who also bought this expecting videos , going on the other reviews and the dvd back case description, please leave a review aswell ,to let fans know that i'm not imagining things, and what their really buying----Thanks-
