Kristen McNamara: The Next American Idol?

According to the folks at Vote for the Worst, Kristen McNamara made it to the Hollywood round. Wondering who this gal is? More info after the jump.

From her Myspace account:

I love meeting new people and hearing life stories! People know me as Kristen McNamara, but all my friends call me KMAC. You can call me KMAC if you want! I am a singer/songwriter, I grew up on the top of a mountain in Northern California.
With no neighbors or TV and the nearest mall an hour away, music kept me entertained. Everyone in my family is musical for the most part! I have a little sister and wonderful hardworking parents. My Grandma McNamara is my hero and one of my best friends. I wish I could play the piano as well as she can! I have over 45 cousins and grew up with chickens, horses and more!

I sold chicken eggs on the corner for 2$ per dozen in our small town of 1500 people. I was the kid who played dress up then was getting my princess outfit caught on branches from climbing a tree, trying to balance while holding lipgloss in one hand and a squirt gun in the other. I was a girl scout my entire childhood and have the badges to prove it. I was a ballerina from age 2 – 14. I then realized I wasn’t the most graceful girl on earth, it was time to pick another hobby. I don’t watch the news too often because it’s depressing.

Laughing is a hobby of mine and so is bargain shopping. My first gig singing was in church and then I graduated to the next level, the church choir! I was 13, and was the youngest member. I say “Oh Nuggets” a lot, and love to bake, paint and fish.
