2007美国偶像冠军的Jordan Sparks----this is my now
年5月24日，年仅17岁乔丁·斯巴克斯在一片欢呼声和尖叫声中登上《美国偶像》第六季冠军宝座，凭著高亢嘹亮的声线和最有潜质的冠军宝座继承人称号，击败来自华盛顿的25岁的帅哥布莱克·刘易斯(Blake Lewis)夺冠。
17岁的乔丁·斯巴克在舞台上总给人一种自然的亲近感。随著节目的播出，她高亢嘹亮的声线让评委刮目相看，观眾支持率与日俱增，人气也水涨船高。早前在三甲之中人气最旺，也是实力最强的选手。相比之下，外形帅气的布莱克能走到今天实属幸运。
在好莱坞柯达剧场，当知道自己赢得观眾7400万高票数支持的时候，拥有一漂亮卷发的乔丁·斯巴克斯热泪盈眶：『我真的真的不知道应该怎么感谢你们。』连评委Randy也是她的忠实『粉丝』，早前就斩钉截铁地预测：『这一季又是卷毛的天下。』
