Jewel :"Nashville Star" has a fantastic voice
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -August 8, 2008 Jewel says Lawson is "a really lovely and extraordinary
singer."
Lawson, a Texas mother of five, won last night's competition,
earning herself a record deal. She'll also perform from the
Olympics in Beijing next week. Her new single "What If It All Goes
Right" hit country radio today.
Jewel says she can't imagine the work it's going to take for
Lawson to balance family life and her new music career. She says
"It's going to be a tremendous undertaking but her family is great
and her husband is very supportive."
Jewel predicts some of the other contestants will also stick
around. She says "I think that there's a record deal for quite a
few of the runner-ups," predicting that Shawn Mayer, Gabe Garcia
and Ashlee Hewitt will "all will do quite well."
