American Idol finalist Kristy Lee Cook has signed with 19 Recordings/Arista Nashville. Her first single, 15 Minutes of Shame, arrives Aug. 11, and the album follows in the fall. The album is being produced by Brett James, who co-wrote Jesus, Take the Wheel for former Idol champion Carrie Underwood. The signing marks the return for Cook, 24, to Arista Nashville. She was signed to the label as a teen but dropped before recording anything. Cook will record her album while touring with American Idols Live, which kicks off Tuesday in Glendale, Ariz., and runs through Sept. 13.
this makes her the first Season 7 contestant who didn't make top 2 to be signed and only the third ever contestant who didn't make top 2 to be signed before the tour (the first two were Daughtry and Kellie in Season 5).
go Kristy! :woohoo: eat it haters :happyface
