JORDAN SPARKS BATTLEFIELD MUSIC VIDEO EXCLUSIVE WORLD PREMIERE Jordin Sparks Releases New Album 'Battlefield' Catch up with the Popular Singer on Post-Idol Life and a Special Guest Spot on The Jonas Brothers World Tour 2009

July 2009 (Medialink) - 19 Recordings/Jive Records artist Jordin Sparks released her sophomore effort "Battlefield" on July 21st. Off to a great start with the album launch, Sparks recently premiered the new single on American Idol. On "Battlefield," Sparks is working with a cadre of hit-making producers and songwriters that include Dr. Luke, fellow label-mate T-Pain, Ryan Tedder, Stargate, and others. The "Battlefield" video was directed by Philip Andelman and recently wrapped shooting in California. Post-Idol, Jordin's star has continued to rise; she's received rave album and concert reviews and has established herself as an accomplished, popular singer in her own right. The 19-year old's self-titled platinum 2007 album debut spawned three Top 5 hits on the Pop Singles charts - which have sold an impressive nine million tracks and ringtones cumulatively - including "Tattoo," the Grammy-nominated "No Air" and "One Step At A Time." Jordin Sparks along with Honor Society are confirmed special guests on the North American leg of the 52-date "The Jonas Brothers World Tour 2009" which kicked off on June 20th. Talent/Guest: Jordin Sparks At the tender age of 17, Jordin Sparks became the youngest American Idol winner ever. Hailing from Glendale, Arizona, Sparks almost did not make it into the contest. She auditioned in LA but was dismissed by Randy, Simon and Paula. But Jordin refused to give up and made a bee-line for a second audition held in her native Arizona, where she made it through. Jordin grew up in a bi-racial household and believes the high-intensity environment of her father's occupation (her dad, Phillippi Sparks, was a professional football player for the New York Giants and Dallas Cowboys) may have schooled her in how to cope with the rigors of show business early on. She's received rave album and concert reviews and has established herself as an accomplished, popular singer in her own right. Her self-titled platinum 2007 album debut spawned three Top 5 hits on the Pop Singles charts - which have sold an impressive nine million tracks and ringtones cumulatively- including "Tattoo," the Grammy-nominated "No Air" and "One Step At A Time."
