每隔一段漫长的时间就会有个年轻的歌手凭借叫人折服的才华，闪亮在美国最瞩目的流行音乐聚光灯下。乔丹普瑞特就是这样一位少有的天才。 生长在Loganville, Georgia的乔丹，有着天生禀赋，超凡的嗓音，特别的声线和娇好的容貌，这些都让这位15岁的新星获得了一大堆不俗的成绩。 乔丹从4岁开始在公开场合唱歌。她总站在成千上万的观众前面。她在乔治亚州著名的奥林匹克世纪公园、石山、六旗以及福克斯剧院开唱，吸引了众多乐迷。最近，乔丹在洛杉矶和Aly、AJ一起参加迪斯尼联合举办的2006 Youth Marketing大会的演出。 必然的，乔丹终有一天会被音乐界发现。这一天终于来临，当凯斯托马斯听到乔丹在乔治亚亚特兰大的样带后，打了个电话给乔丹让她到田纳西弗兰克林的录音棚试音。他们的会晤，以及乔丹在录音棚的出色演唱使得乔丹很快签约Levosia Entertainment, LLC 所以，我们并不奇怪，乔丹现在加盟了好莱坞唱片这支优秀的队伍，而且签下一个大单成为了迪斯尼新近最有前途的歌手。 Fifteen-year-old Jordan Pruitt has the power to reverse charges of fogyism in households across America: The songs on No Ordinary Girl skew heavily teen-ward (check song titles like "Miss Popularity" and "Who Likes Who"), but whether you wear bifocals or a retainer, she'll reel you in--before you know it you, too, could be singing about how you want a cellphone and the keys to the Mercedes (see "Teenager"). Pruitt made a name for herself prior to No Ordinary Girl with two singles; "Outside Looking In" and "Jump to the Rhythm," both included here, burned up the original soundtracks to two Disney Channel movies. What separates her from the mouse-ears-wearing pack, though, is genuine promise. Pruitt's is a stylish voice--creamy and sweet and a little quirky. It serves her exceptionally well on these featherweight songs, not one of which won't be relatable to anyone who has ever sought refuge from the horrors of high school in a pop song. More important, it's suited for weightier material--MySpace subscribers may claim Pruitt as their talented mascot for now, but don't be surprised if she's belting anthems for minivan drivers a few albums down the line. --Tammy La Gorce
