The song "No Air" is currently the third-highest-selling single by an American Idol alum, selling more than three million digital copies in the U.S. Her self-titled debut album, also released in 2007, sold over two million copies and produced Billboard top-ten singles like "Tattoo" and "No Air," the latter featuring Chris Brown. "We looked at each other - me, Simon, and Paula - and were like, 'Where have you been?!' And she said, 'I've auditioned three times but I never made it in front of the judges.' And we were just like, 'What?!'" Since taking the Idol crown in 2007, Sparks went on to enjoy mainstream success within the music industry. "Jordin Sparks had a moment, for me, when she auditioned for us in Seattle," former American Idol judge Randy Jackson told Entertainment Weekly in an interview earlier this year. However, it wasn't until 2007 that she made her big break on Idol, taking the first-place crown and becoming the youngest winner in the TV show's history at only 17-years-old. You better work! Sparks was born in Phoenix, Arizona and grew up as the daughter of professional football player Phillippi Sparks. Along with taking the stage at Chicago Pride Fest in 2016, Sparks is already slated to perform at pride festivals in Miami Beach, Kentucky and Alabama. If there's one thing we know about American Idol songbird Jordin Sparks, it's that she loves her gay fanbase.
