Kellie Pickler Fights off Depression


Catching up with Country Star American Idol Alum Kellie Pickler, finds her no worse for the wears after a Kellie Pickler American Idol Alumtroublesome relationship and family issues.


In 2007, the 22 year old Idol Fan Favorite Kellie Pickler had bouts of  depression and suffered from severe reaction from anti-depressants.  Kelly revealed these issues to People for an upcoming interview.


During the time she also struggles with her romatic side, as she broke up with then beau, hockey player Jordin Tootoo.


“Everything in my professional life seemed great,” she says. “But in my personal life, I was just crumbling.”


Just as Pickler was moving over her own hurdles, her father, a convicted felon, was sent back to jail. He was first released soon after Pickler’s Idol run. In the meantime, her mother, who had abandoned Pickler at age two, unexpectedly reappeared in her life.


I was an emotional wreck,” Pickler says.


Yet, despite the hardships, the singer says she has a strong support system — not to mention some recent professional coups. Pickler has a new man in her life (Nashville songwriter Kyle Jacobs) and some good girl-pals in fellow singers Taylor Swift and Carrie Underwood. Plus, in the past year alone, she released a new album and took home three Country Music Television Awards, including Performance of the Year.


Kelly is hanging in there and her fans still appreciate her down home values, and great country music songs.

American Idol Jordan Sparks

Jordin Brianna Sparks was born on December 22, 1989, in Phoenix, Arizona, to mother Jodi Weidmann (who is white) and father Phillippi Sparks (who is black), a former NFL defensive back. After attending Orchard Elementary School in Rodgewood, New Jersey, Jordin Sparks attended Community Christian School before going on to Sandra Day O’Connor High School. She dropped out in 2006 and was homeschooled for the remainder of high school so she could give more attention to her singing.


Jordin Sparks began taking part in various singing competitions and, in 2006, she was one of six winners in the Torrid search for the next plus-sized model. That was the year Jordin Sparks also found herself auditioning for American Idol in front of three of the toughest, most well-known judges: Paula Abdul, Randy Jackson and Simon Cowell.

While performing on Season Six of American Idol, Jordin Sparks not only gained recognition from the judges but she also gained a solid fanbase of “sparkplugs.” She was never in the bottom two or three throughout the entire show, and she won the season in May 2007.


Following her win, Jordin Sparks made appearances on Live With Regis and Kelly, The Today Show, The View, and Larry King Live, and she was featured in Entertainment Weekly, TV Guide, Glamour, and more.

Jordin Sparks releases album

American Idol Elliott Yamin Return to Richmond Va Performance


On Saturday August 16, Richmond Virginia Native and American Idol Finalist came back to town and performed at the Richmond Brave Minor League Baseball Game. No Elliott was not playing 3rd base for the Richmond Braves, rather he did was he does best. He sang.


Here is Elliot Yamin singing the National Anthem.



Elliott Yamin did however get some time to test his baseball skills with the Richmond Braves, as he shagged some balls in the outfield, took batting practice, signed autographs as part of the Inspired by Diabetes campaign and sang the national anthem.


Yamin managed to make contact on some pitches during his two rounds of batting practice, hitting a few infield grounders and one looper over shortstop.


“It’s just real cool, man,” Yamin said between rounds. “I’ve always dreamed of being a singer or a professional athlete. Obviously, if I was a professional athlete, I’d be one of the smallest.”


Yamin is 5-6, 152 pounds.


“After watching him swing, he’s got potential - to be a good singer,” R-Braves manager Dave Brundage said. “He looks to be a prospect - just not in baseball.”
