Kellie Pickler

The first singer from the ’06 season to release an album wasn’t Hicks, McPhee or anyone in the top 5. It was 6th place finisher Kellie Pickler.

Her album “Small Town Girl” actually made it to #1 on Billboard’s Top Country Chart and has sold nearly 300,000 copies to date. (Billboard)

But if her singing--and the critics’ reviews-- are any indication, Kellie will probably make a more favorable impression as an actress.

She was recently offered a sitcom deal where she will play “a naïve small town girl” (that’s a stretch) who discovers that her biological father is the governor of North Carolina.

The FOX sitcom is being developed by the same creative team behind “That 70’s Show” and will be produced by American Idol’s 19 Entertainment. (eonline)

Pickler is content with completing what seems to be her own Cinderella story … "It's taken me 20 years but for once in my life I'm actually happy with what I see when I look in the mirror," Pickler said in an uncharacteristic soft voice. "You know, I'm happy with who I am and what I'm about. Life is good." (Ocala.com)
