From WikiCover

On August 17, 2007, it was announced today that Jordin Sparks, the youngest American Idol winner ever in the popular TV franchise's history, blazes a post-Idol signature trail all of her own and signs to 19Recordings/Jive Records.

Winning the majority of the more than seventy-four million record-breaking votes cast, the 17-year old Glendale, Arizona, native, was followed by millions of television viewers and was hailed by critics and fans as one of the most musically evolved contestants the Fox show has ever had.

Jive Records is gearing up to launch Jordin Sparks' lead single, Tattoo, produced by the hit-making duo Stargate (Beyonce, Ne-Yo) and co-written with Amanda Ghost, whose impressive credits include James Blunt's Beautiful and Beautiful Liar with Beyonce and Shakira. Tattoo will be arriving at radio stations across the country on August 27th, and Sparks' eagerly awaited debut album will be in stores in November. Currently, Sparks is wowing live audiences in a trek across the U.S. with other Season Six finalists on the Pop-Tarts American Idols Live! Tour. In between tour dates, she's scheduled to appear on The Teen Choice Awards which airs live on FOX on August 26, 2007.
