Kellie Pickler

Artist

ranking
12020
Kellie Dawn Pickler (born June 28, 1986) is an American pop country music singer-songwriter who finished sixth on the fifth season of the Fox television series American Idol. She has since been signed to BNA Records as a recording artist, with her debut album Small Town Girl being released in late 2006. The album produced three singles on the U.S. Billboard Hot Country Songs charts and three on the Billboard Hot 100.
 
 The 19-year-old Pickler auditioned for American Idol in the fall of 2005 in Greensboro, North Carolina. She sang both Kelly Clarkson's "Since U Been Gone" and Martina McBride's "A Broken Wing". The judges sent her to Hollywood. Pickler advanced through the semi-finalist rounds in February. On March 9, she reached the Top 12.
 
 Pickler was among one of judge Simon Cowell's favorites. He once predicted Pickler would be in the final three, and said he preferred her over the previous season's winner, Carrie Underwood. Recognized for her "quirky" personality and Southern charm, Pickler gained attention on the show by saying (for example) that she had hardly ever performed before real audiences, and mispronounced words. She was compared to Jessica Simpson in a March 27 story in US Weekly magazine entitled "Kellie: The Next Jessica Simpson", due to her "sweet Southern style and ditzy demeanor".
