Season 6's American Idol, Jordin Sparks, has grown up in front of America's eyes. She auditioned for the show when she was 16 years old and sang in front of millions of viewers each week as a 17 year old. Now, Jordin turns 20 and is an extremely successful pop star.

As the youngest winner in American Idol history, Jordin has accomplished a lot as a teenager. After winning Season 6, Jordin released her self-titled debut album in 2007. Entering the Billboard 200 charts at #10 in the album's first week, it was certified Platinum just 13 months later. There were four top twenty singles off the album including her Idol coronation song, "This Is My Now," and her duet "No Air," which assisted in landing Jordin on Billboard's Decade End and Year End charts which were released last week.

This summer, Jordin released her sophomore album entitled Battlefield. The album peaked at #7 on the Billboard 200 chart, and it includes the hit singles "Battlefield" and "S.O.S. (Let the Music Play)." To promote her new music, Jordin toured in 2009 with the Jonas Brothers and she also joined Britney Spears on her "Circus" tour.

Jordin's other accomplishments include singing The National Anthem at Super Bowl XLII in her hometown of Glendale, Arizona. At this time, she became the first American Idol and the youngest person ever to sing the anthem at the Super Bowl. In addition, Jordin has an NAACP Image Award, two BET Awards, a Teen Choice Award, an American Music Award, and a People's Choice Award.

What's next for the superstar? Jordin will be bringing her third annual "Super Bowl Experience" to Miami for the Super Bowl this year.

Happy 20th Birthday, Jordin!
