Fans that can't make it to Broadway to catch Jordin Sparks perform can still catch her on TV. Here is the announcement: 2007 "American Idol" winner Jordin Sparks makes her Broadway debut today in the 2008 Tony and Grammy Award-winning Best Musical In The Heights. Sparks will begin her engagement playing Nina Rosario today (Thursday, August 19th) through Sunday, November 14, 2010. She will perform a song from the musical on today on Live! With Regis & Kelly, followed by appearances on Fox News Channel's Fox & Friends, The Wendy Williams Show, as well as additional media appearances this Fall. "Rehearsals have been amazing and intense. I can't express how excited I am to make my Broadway debut with my new family In The Heights," said Jordin Sparks. "It has always been one of my dreams, and it's finally happening!" 20 year old Jordin Sparks has been performing from a young age and stands alone as the youngest contestant to ever win "American Idol." At the age of 16, she auditioned for the show and within a few months went on to win the hearts of fans and the Idol judges. She has since become a platinum and award winning recording artist. Her self-titled debut album was released in 2007 on 19 Recordings/Jive Records and went on to sell over 1.6 million copies worldwide and produced three Top 5 hits on Billboard's Pop singles chart including: "Tattoo," "No Air," and "One Step At A Time." Her sophomore album, Battlefield, contains the album title hit single and the bona-fide dance smash, "S.O.S (Let The Music Play)." Cumulatively, these popular singles have sold almost 9 million downloads/ringtones. Jordin has received American Music, People's Choice and Teen Choice Awards as well as Grammy and multiple MTV VMA nominations. She has also toured extensively with Alicia Keys, The Jonas Brothers and Britney Spears and this summer just wrapped her first headlining tour
