Biography of Kimberly Ann Caldwell

Kimberly Ann Caldwell, born on February 25, 1982, is an American singer, actress, and television personality. She first tasted the flavor of fame at the age of five when she participated in a beauty pageant. Throughout her childhood, Caldwell won the junior vocal competition five times in the renowned "Star Search" project and also performed on one of the oldest music radio shows, "Grand Ole Opry."

In 1995, she sang at the fiftieth wedding anniversary of former US President George Bush and Barbara Bush. Caldwell later joined the second and final season of the program "Popstars: USA," where she was advised to pursue a solo career after being eliminated from the group.

However, it was her participation in the second season of "American Idol" that brought her the most recognition. During the show, Caldwell secured the seventh place. Currently, she works as an entertainment correspondent and hosts several television shows on the TV Guide channel. Additionally, Caldwell is currently working on songs for her debut album.

After her "American Idol" journey, Caldwell started working as a correspondent for the entertainment-sports program "54321" on Fox Sports. She covered various cultural events and movie premieres. Later, she joined her fellow contestants from the second season of "American Idol" on the "American Idols LIVE!" concert tour, which successfully traveled to forty-four cities across the United States.

In 2008, Caldwell released two singles, "Fear of Flying" and "Gave Yourself Away," both of which are available for download on iTunes. She also began acting in an unnamed miniseries alongside John Schneider and hosting the television show "Jingles," created by Mark Burnett.

Recently, Caldwell became the host of MTV's new show, "P. Diddy's Starmaker," which premiered in January 2009. In this project, promising young solo singers compete in weekly contests and live together in typical reality show fashion. The show is produced by Mark Burnett and Sean "P. Diddy" Combs.

In the New Year's episode of "Deal Or No Deal" in 2009, Caldwell supported her friend and fellow contestant Tandi Oyeneyin, who eventually won $110,000 in cash and a car worth $45,190.

On May 21, 2009, Caldwell announced that she had signed a record deal with Vanguard Records and would release her debut album within a year.
