AKA:
Diana DeGarmo
Diana Nicole DeGarmo, currently 18, was born on June 16, 1987, in Birmingham, Alabama. Her singing talent was noticeable at an early age and by the time she was five years old young DeGarmo was used to being on stage and in the spotlight. Diana performed all around Georgia, where she currently lived in Snellville, and even at the Grand Old Opry in Nashville, Tennessee---oh, this young girl was taking the music world by storm!

Unfortunately, during a trip to Scandinavia to try to pursue a music career, Diana didn't have much luck. Diana did score becoming a finalist on the show

More "America's Most Talented Kids", which gave her some, even if not much, fame. She took the new conditions to her advantage and auditioned for American Idol at the age of 15; she was praised by the judges and sent along to the Hollywood stage, where she kept on singing until she became apart of the top 32, then the top 24, then the top 12, and continued her success until she was in the finale against Fantasia Barrino. Unfortunately for Diana, Fantasia won, but Diana's competing gave her supreme popularity in the pop and country genres.

While on tour with the final 8, Diana released a single, Dreams, and after the tour her debut album Blue Skies under the RCA record company label. In 2005, Diana split with RCA and has since landed many parts in musicals such as Hairspray, which she has just finished. She hopes for a late 2006 release to her new album, and Diana's newfound fame isn't even phasing the princess of pop one bit.

    She should have won! hide show

    Diana DeGarmo was a contestant for the hit TV reality show, American Idol. She made it as far as the finals and had a huge fan base. Many people loved her on teh show and even now that she is on broadway. For me she is a really great singer and she deserved to win but what is done is done and she is happy with her job now as a broadway actress. She has such an amazing voice and I enjoy listening to her. She has only come out with one CD and probbaly only one CD. She's working as a broadway actress now and many people could only dream of being a broadway actress.

    Diana DeGarmo is easily MY winner of American Idol. hide show

    Diana DeGarmo, currently 18, is a very talented singer and actress. At the young age of 15, this pop princess auditioned for American Idol, and stole my favortism from the auditions. She's a talented singer, and, in my opinion, should have beaten out Fantasia in the finals. She is easily more fluent in many different types of music---including pop, country, and rock. Her debut single, Dreams, has many hits on it, and her debut album, Blue Skies, is easily a classic. As Penny Pingleton in Hairspray, a Broadway musical, Diana has done fabulously. Diana, the small town girl from Snellville, GA, has rocked into the hearts of music lovers everywhere in such a short amount of time.

    Probably the best Female Idol ever hide show

    Regardless of how others might feel, Diana was robbed in Season 3 as she has a much better voice then Fantasia Barrino could ever hope to have. Diana showed plenty of class during Season 3 and would have been a great role model for the youth in this country.
    Diana is an extremely attractive young lady who could very easily make it in Television if she chooses not to pursue her singing talents. In the 5 seasons of ' American Idol ', Diana has to date been the best female singer they have ever had. Hopefully American Idol will at some point have an all-star show and give America a chance to choose the person who actually deserved to win.
