Season 2 finalist Kimberly Caldwell celebrates her 30th birthday this weekend.

Kimberly released her first album, Without Regrets, last April. The album features Kimberly’s writing skills as she co-wrote nearly half the tracks on the album. In late 2010 her single “Desperate Girls and Stupid Boys” marked Kimberly’s first appearance on the Billboard charts, entering at #50 on the Hot Dance Club Play chart.

Kimberly has hosted many television shows and events since leaving American Idol. In 2011 she hosted VH1’s Rock N Roll Fantasy Camp and this year will host a new show on the Oxygen Network that will premiere in March. Kimberly exercised her acting chops recently with a guest spot on TNT’s Franklin and Bash in early February.

Happy Birthday, Kimberly!
