When American Idol winner, Jordin Sparks, tweeted that she wasn’t feeling well a few days ago, I figured it was just a case of her catching some bug that would be gone in a few days but the poor girl was far sicker than that!

She tweeted that she needed prayer and then wrote this: “Was struck w/ acute appendicitis…took out that appendix last night. Recovering today & the next week or so.”
She’s been updating that she’s still sore but recovering while she also thanks all of her well-wishes for their warm thoughts.  She looks absolutely adorable in this twitpic image …read more

On Sunday, Jordin Sparks stepped up on the field at the Arizona Cardinals NFL game and did the honors of singing the national anthem. The home team was playing against the San Francisco 49ers, at the University of Arizona Stadium.  Jordin looked cute and I’m liking that color on her but…I guess she forgot to put her shoes on?

In other news, it’s been reported that Jordin is lending her voice for the soundtrack for the film Tinker Bell and the Lost Treasure. The songs that’s expected to be on the soundtrack is called “Road to Paradise”. The soundtrack will …read more

Recently, it was announced that Jordin Sparks and Britney Spears would be touring together.  Actually, I guess it would be more accurate to say that Jordin is opening for Britney and the pairing felt odd and weird to me in about a million ways.
The first thought I had is the obvious and ironic one.  The American Idol winner has been pretty vocal about her belief that people should wait until they are married to have sex.  She wears a purity ring and, although she admits that it’s sometimes difficult, she seems determined to maintain her values – she even directed …read more

American Idol Season 6 winner, Jordin Sparks, attended the 2009 Teen Choice Awards last night.  I think that recently, Jordin has been wearing clothing that has flattered her body type but this is the exception.  This dress is not made of a fabric that is forgiving of a fuller figure and I have to say that I absolutely hate the shoes!  I liked how she was trying to accessorize that orange clutch with a blue dress and her hair looks amazing (as usual) but this dress makes her bust look squishy and small and her hips and thighs look larger.  …read more

Last night on So You Think You Can Dance, singles from two American Idol winners, Jordin Sparks and Kris Allen, were used during dance routines.  It was a great episode last night, did anyone see it? 
Anyway, Kris’ interpretation of Kanye West’s “Heartless” was used during Evan and Janette’s routine.  I wasn’t a huge fan of the dance (I really don’t like the Rumba anyway) but Kris sounded great!

Brandon and Jeanine delivered an energetic pop jazz routine to “Battlefield” and I really liked it.  At first it seemed like Jeanine was having a hard time …read more

In yet another talk show appearance to promote her new Battlefield album, Jordin Sparks performed the title track on Live With Regis and Kelly.  She seems so comfortable singing this song that she’s ready to move on to the next single  
She looked really good too.  I didn’t like the volume control on the backup singers at first but it seems like they got it together.  Talk shows never have great audio anyway. 

Get your armor – Jordin Sparks’ new album Battlefield is now available so I hope all you fans pick up a copy!  You can also grab the Deluxe CD/DVD
Clearly, Jordin was excited last night about the release.  On Twitter (follow her @ TheRealJordin) she tweeted last night: “Eeeeeee new album out now!!!! (east coast) hit iTunes up now! Find it at a store! Yaaaaaay! Goodnight twittlets! <3”

Now, let’s get down to business.  If you’d like to listen to the full album, check out the listening party on AOL.

I was sent some great pictures of Jordin Sparks at the Madison Square Garden during her recent tour stop there with the Jonas Brothers.  She looks really great and I have to say that I admire a woman who can perform night after night in heels like those ones!  She definitely looks very comfortable on stage!

American Idol’s sixth winner, Jordin Sparks, was on Good Morning America this morning where she performed “Battlefield” and she talked about what it’s been like for her since winning the huge singing contest.  She’s currently touring with the Jonas Brothers and she said that the crowds and their shows are a little more crazy than she’s been used to.  I can imagine!  Those JoBros fans can get really… excited!  Fortunately, Jordin says it’s been a lot of fun so I’m happy to hear she’s having a good time!
Her actual performance was pretty great!  I loved what she was wearing and …read more
