Mandisa Tells Us:

"All I’ve ever wanted to be was a singer, but immediately after the Idols Live! tour ended in the fall of 2006, I not only signed a record deal with a major label but also a plus size clothing modeling contract and a book publishing deal! My book, Idoleyes: My New Perspective on Faith, Fat, and Fame - which gives a behind-the-scenes glimpse of my time on American Idol, has gone on to touch thousands of lives in the areas that I struggle with myself. My CD True Beauty was released in July 2007 and was also nominated for a Grammy! I recently completed a 30-city sold-out arena tour and am now beginning work on two new projects: a Christmas CD due out this fall and my sophomore CD, which will be released next spring. I am a living witness that God can do more than you could ever ask, think, or imagine!"
