Janell Wheeler describes herself as a sunshine cowgirl and calls her music “country, pop, soul, glam, fun.” This 24 year old Florida bombshell has been singing and actually songwriting since the second grade. Janell graduated from the University of Florida at Gainesville in 2008 with a bachelor’s degree in theatre.

She started her AI journey in Orlando when she sang “House of the Rising Sun” for her audition. Since then she has been impressing the judges all the way to the top 24! Watch Janell on SEASON 9 of American Idol.

We would very much like to fill the void in all the unanswered questions which we at American Buzz have been posing about Janell.

If you can share any and all information that you have about her, we would be forever grateful as would tens of millions of American Idol fans. Just drop us a note into the “Comment” section which can be found at the bottom of this page and we thank you in advance.

For now, we want to wish Janell Wheeler all the luck in the world
in this American Idol competition as well as with all else in her present and future life.

Update: Janell was eliminated after the first round of American Idol. She had such poise and sung her last song better then she sung it on the actual performance night. Watch below….
