• 'BABY V' STILL MAKING NEWS' | 17 Apr 2008 |
|
Several weeks back, I wrote about former "American Idol" contestant and Fort Myers native Vonzell Solomon, who had joined the touring dance and music show "Simply Ballroom." More recently, USA Today caught up with Solomon and offered a few more tidbits (some of this reported in The News-Press previously) about what she has been doing since she finished third in Season 4 of the hit Fox reality show. • She still lives in Fort Myers. • After "Idol," Solomon was a celebrity spokeswoman for the U.S. Postal Service and went on a 50-city tour of postal facilities. (Remember, she used to be a rural carrier right here in Lee County.) • She hopes to play more postal union conventions. • She has started her own record label - Melodic Records - but has no release date for an album. • She says she is learning the cha-cha while working with all the "Simply Ballroom" dancers and jokes that maybe she'll wind up on the ABC reality show "Dancing with the Stars." For years, I have wondered why Solomon - who is tremendously talented - hasn't become a bigger star. Many former "Idol" finalists who finished lower than she did have gone on to successful music careers as well as TV and movie gigs. Maybe she is just a small-town girl at heart. Nothing wrong with that. http://www.news-press.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080414/COLUMNISTS39/804140311/1013/LIFESTYLES |

• USA TODAY - Former mail carrier 'Baby V' still knows how to deliver | 05 Apr 2008 |
|
Before her big break on Idol in 2005, Vonzell Solomon spent the previous year and a half as a rural mail carrier in Fort Myers, Fla. Thanks to the job, she was better prepared than most to face Simon Cowell. "Little dogs are always the feisty ones," she says. Almost three years later, Baby V no longer delivers mail, but she might be the only Idol finalist with the backing of the federal government. After Idol, she was a celebrity spokeswoman for her old employer, the U.S. Postal Service and helped unveil a new stamp. These days, Solomon is focused on performing full time. In October, she played a sweet 16 party in the Bahamas. She also has her own label (Melodic Records) but no release date for an album. "I wouldn't be on this track if it weren't for Idol," she says. Solomon, who still lives in Fort Myers, hasn't forgotten her roots in civil service. She's hoping to play a few more postal union conventions. After finishing third on Idol, Solomon embarked on a 50-city tour of postal facilities and post offices. "Every time I went to a new facility, they made me feel like family," she says. For the past month, she has been on tour with fellow fourth-season finalist Anthony Fedorov in Simply Ballroom. They sing while ballroom dancers do their thing. "I'm learning the cha-cha," Solomon says. "I'm getting it together." What's next for her? Depends how many dance moves she picks up. "I might be on Dancing With the Stars," she jokes. |

Having gotten all the way to an extremely impressive third place in the fourth season of "Idol," it's amazing to think that Vonzell Solomon didn't even make it past the initial audition the first time she tried out for the show! She charmed viewers with her amazing voice as well as her big smile and easygoing personality. What's most interesting about Vonzell as a singer is how many types of music she can actually sing. As is listed on her MySpace page, Vonzell sings Gospel, Jazz, R & B, Hip Hop, Country, Rock, Opera, and even songs of the Broadway musicals! Since being on AI, Vonzell has taken on the artist name "Baby V," and has even become CEO of her own independent record label, Melodic Records. Her CD, My Struggle, was released to iTunes in January of last year, and is expected to hit stores within the next few months. She also appeared in the film Still Green. Vonzell has done quite a lot in the holiday music realm in her post-Idol career, having been featured on the compilation Dear Santa holiday collection with some huge names in the industry, including Alicia Keys and Nick Lachey. She also recorded a song called "It's Gonna Be A Cold Cold Christmas" for another Christmas album, Breaking For The Holidays. In addition, Vonzell became a paid spokesperson for the United States Postal Service, as she was a mail carrier before being on American Idol. Vonzell is now on the Simply Ballroom tour. On her website, this is how the show is described: "Currently playing to sold-out audiences across the UK, SIMPLY BALLROOM is now making it’s North American debut starring Celebrity Host, DEBBIE REYNOLDS and AMERICAN IDOL finalists, VONZELL SOLOMON & ANTHONY FEDEROV and a cast of world-class dance champions. A lavish production full of glitz, glamour and breathtaking performances! From the perfection of the Waltz to the passion of the Tango to the power of the Paso Doble, this beautifully staged and orchestrated production has it all!" Many kids will be thrilled to learn that Vonzell will also be one of the AI alums at Idol Camp this summer! Happy Birthday Vonzell! |
