艺人介绍

“美国偶像”冠军得主,“美国偶像”是中国超女等选秀节目的鼻祖。在她会说话之前,Jordin 的歌声就频频出现在电视和广播里,三岁的时候就在她妈妈的磁带里清脆放音。在小学时她用厨房当排练室,站在橱柜上练声,初中时在教堂唱诗班唱歌,并乐此不疲。

当Jordin的爸爸在纽约巨人和达拉斯牛仔队踢足球时,他的职业让她有了更适合与公众和媒体接触的机会。闯荡在全美数年,她的父母让她在各种场合抛头露面,包括百老汇表演,她意识到作为一个小女孩,应当在舞台上表现。当她爸爸从NFL退休,她的家庭在菲尼克斯区安定下来,Jordin更频繁地在教堂、学校、各社交场所。在她12岁时,也就是2002年,她获得了“亚利桑那州新星”,它是由可口可乐赞助的。后来陆续又有很多挖星的比赛跟风,她声名鹊起,还为菲尼克斯太阳队唱歌。

2006年九月,她陆续赢得了“亚利桑那偶像”,“西雅图偶像”,接着在那里获得了“美国偶像”的桂冠。作为历史上最年轻的冠军,年仅17岁,Jordin很自然的会被拿去跟她之前的前辈们做比较。而显然,不管是本身嗓音的本钱和唱功Jordin都不算是其中最出色的,但正如评委们所说,她在处理歌曲时那种自然就融入其中的投入度,并不是每个歌手身上都能找到的特质。这些在她处理一些中慢版的抒情歌时显得特别的突出,甚至有些超乎她年纪的成熟感。

Jordin Sparks may have been the youngest American Idol when she won the title on the reality show's sixth season, but the Glendale, AZ, resident had already packed plenty of accomplishments into 17 years. The daughter of Phillippi Sparks, former left cornerback for the Dallas Cowboys and former defensive back for the New York Giants, Sparks had no formal vocal training, but showed a flair for singing while still a toddler and was drawn to performing of all kinds at an early age. By her early teens, Sparks was singing, acting in plays and modeling, and already winning acclaim for her talents. Along with performing with Alice Cooper and Michael W. Smith, she was Coca Cola's Rising Star in 2002 and made her recording debut with 2003's For Now EP with CCM artist Matthew Ward and engineer Gary Leach. The following year, she won two awards at the 2004 Gospel Music Association Academy, placed second overall in that year's Music in the Rockies competition, and appeared on America's Most Talented Kids twice. In 2006, she won a plus-size model search held by the Torrid clothing line and appeared in an ad for Torrid in the December issue of Seventeen magazine. That year, Sparks also auditioned for American Idol, performing in the Los Angeles tryouts; while she didn't make the cut, she later won the American Idol-affiliated contest Arizona Idol, which allowed her to audition again for the show in Seattle. She made it through to Hollywood on the strength of her rendition of Celine Dion's &Because You Loved Me& and found a place among the 12 American Idol finalists early in 2007. Her performances of songs such as &I (Who Have Nothing)& and &Hey Baby& showed her charm and versatility, and soon made her a fan favorite. Like fellow American Idols Kelly Clarkson, Carrie Underwood, and Taylor Hicks, Sparks was never in the bottom two or three performers throughout the entire competition. Ultimately, Sparks beat out Blake Lewis and Melinda Doolittle to become the sixth American Idol on May 23, 2007. Her debut single, &This Is My Now,& was released soon after the show's May finale, and Sparks spent that summer appearing on the American Idol tour. She also began working on material for her album, reteaming with Leach on songs that were previewed on her website.
