I remember watching this and wanting to be her! I would get in my room and reenact her performances from the night before ... And then on result night I would get dolled up and watch it with my friends it was during the summer so I didn't have school it was a lot of fun.
I had such a crush on this woman back in the day and was following her for a while. In the days of Britney Spears and Jessica/Ashlee Simpson I think she could have had a career. But she refused to sign with a label, instead choosing to go independent. She kept saying an album was being made right after American Idol, and for the next several years. She acted in a movie, then she went on a bunch of reality shows like The Surreal Life, Gimme My Reality Show, and did some modelling. Haven't heard from her in many years.
Jolly I just followed her on Instagram. Still super pretty. She seems very happy. In fact she just posted on her story a day ago a bunch of season 1 singers did a zoom call reunion.
I met her today in Paris. She is very kind. She is doing social media marketing and being an influencer. Her lifestyle allows her to live anywhere she wants in the world! She also has a really cute dog
Her song is ironic to her situation this week. Cuz she sang Last Dance Lol & in the song she says, “last dance, last chance for love”..& she ended up getting eliminated. It definitely was her last chance. 😢
It actually wasn't her last chance. She got offered a record deal even after getting eliminated, but said she refused because she didn't want to do pop music. She refused to do anything she didn't want to, and ended up doing nothing. Except a fair bit of reality tv and some underwear modeling.
She was my favorite on the show and I even wrote a romance novel and named my lead female character Ryan after her and in the book she has a sister named Star
I didn’t care for her attitude on The Surreal Life. She acted at times like she was better than others. Flavor Flave seemed like such a cool person I don’t understand how she didn’t get along well with him
Ryan has an incredible voice! Wow. Standards have really been lowered for these new incarnations of American Idol.

she was gorgeous in a unique kind of way. wonder where she is now...
I read on her wikipedia page that she lived in Bali and France and just recently moved back to LA .

She said in interviews after that she wasn’t able to show who she was because the song selections were so limited.
This Was One Of Her Best Performances..... Its A Shame She Went Home This Week.... She Was One Of My Favs
I loved her when I was a kid watching this and I still love it now
How far did she make it? I know her from Surreal life never watched American Idol.
I really think Ryan started that teeny-skirt-with-large-chunky-ski-boot look that was everywhere in the early 00's
Chunky ski boot. 😆

sboudreaux27 with u on that. She definitely showed that side of herself the week before after her performance of You Really Got Me.
sboudreaux27 funny thing is she had NO grounds to have a DIVA attitude...that is earned, and i completely forgot how nasty and arrogant she was

Jolly I just meant this week being her last on American Idol.

Ryan Starr so talented I love Donna Summer
Punk rock if you shop at Spencer's in the mall.
If only she'd done that first album pop she'd have her rock albums by now.
Ryan's was a great voice.
Love you Ryan starr!
You and Nicole (pat benetar ??) were my top 2
Her idea of dressing 'punk rock' is hilarious. Maybe it's punk for bible study at the pastor's house.
Boxy Brown one of the grratest and most accurate comments of all time
Simon listens with his eyes.
She‘s a rocker but she’s giving an Aaliyah vibe😍

I remember. I didn’t like the way she looked treated Jordan knight either. Like they were actually famous and she….never was.
I worked with Scott 10 yrs he knows me
Marry me
she's still active on social media
🙊🇬🇷🇬🇷
Top 3 that season should have been Kelly, Tamyra, and Ryan.
No it shouldn't have! It should have been Kelly, Tamyra, and Justin.
Lakisha Jones did this song the best! This young lady is no match for Lakisha!!
Ankh
There is nothing punk about shopping at hot topic
