CC does such an excellent job of keeping us updated on our current and former Idols. So I thought I'd jump on the bandwagon (just a little bit) and post this tidbit of information on a former contestant.
FORMER 'IDOL' HOPEFUL WANT TO OFFER "SOMETHING ENLIGHTENING"
The University of Arizona graduate, Crytal Starks, made it into the top 40 during Amercian Idol season five auditions before being cut. She returned to Tucson and started giving piano and voice lesssons when not doing her full-time job as music director for Real Life Christain Fellowship Church. About 18 months ago she added Christian pop to her gigis with her band Eyes Wide Open. Mostly at community events and in churches is where you will find her. "It's been really hard to find gigis for the band. The reason why I still split my allegiance to both (christain and secular music) is becuase there is not a lot of opportunity to play Chirstian music outside of the churches."

Deni for posting this. I can not always remember to get everything that is going on with our idols so this help is greatly appreciated. For some reason I honestly can not remember this girl so will have to look her up. However should she enter the Christian field of music she may do quite well as look how great Chris Sligh and Mandisa have done in this field.
