Jordin Sparks Checks An Item Off Her Bucket List – ETonline: Lastly, what’s the status of your next album? Sparks: I know what I want to do, I know the sound I want to do, it’s just been a timing issue. I keep pushing for music, but on the other side, all these acting doors keep opening up and I can’t not take those. If there was a race, acting would be a little bit further ahead than music at this point, but it will always be my lifeline and my passion for sure. It’s not going away, that would never happen, but all these opportunities are so exciting and they’ve kept me so busy. It’s incredible to dive into someone else’s life and I’ve been having a blast doing that. But new music is definitely coming. – Read more at ETOnline

Kelly On what kind of father Simon Cowell will be. – “He’s gonna be a great dad. I bet he’ll say to the press, ‘No way am I [changing diapers],’ but I bet you he will.

But as a dad, he’s going to be a little different. Things he told my mom when I was on American Idol, or after I won—he was like, ‘Your daughter’s gonna be a huge star, she’s so talented.’ He does things he doesn’t need to, and nobody sees that side of him.” – Read more at Parade

I was focused completely on our jazz number and I couldn’t allow anything on the outside to distract me. It really was just about me and Derek, rehearsal time, perfecting our dance, being confident about it, and just doing a really great job. – Read more at Parade.com
