It’s interesting how some folks don’t bother using their full name when they become famous either because it’s hard to pronounce or doesn’t seem like it would be a very catchy name that people would pick up. In Lauren Alaina’s case it might be that it’s just a mouthful, Lauren Alaina Kristine Suddeth, and was thus shortened to make it easier to remember. As a country singer she’s been excelling as she’s grown into the genre and her career, and as a household name it’s fair to say that some people know her and some don’t. Knowing everyone in the music industry is possible but it’s a chore for a lot of us that have our own likes and might not fully appreciate every genre that’s out there. But rest assured, that doesn’t take away an ounce of fame from anyone as each and every person has earned their respect in their own time.
Here are a few things about Lauren you might not have known.
10. Growing up she sang whenever and wherever she had the chance to do so.
From the age of three she would get the urge to sing and just go on and do it since it’s typically the nature of a lot of outgoing kids to just get up and do what makes them happy. For Lauren it was singing, and thankfully she had a family that urged her to do just that and to keep doing it.
9. From the age of eight and up she started singing in and winning singing competitions.
Thankfully her passion didn’t just up and go away as she got older as she started to sing in competitions that became steadily harder as more kids around her tried to see if they too could match their voices with hers. It sounds as though she gave them a good run and won a few competitions throughout her time.
8. She was inspired to sing due to her cousin who was diagnosed with a brain tumor.
Anytime a person in one’s family falls ill or is diagnosed with something that either can’t be cured or is a serious health risk there are a lot of different emotions that run through many of us. For Lauren there was no doubt a great deal of sadness, but this also improved her drive to keep singing and make her voice heard to anyone and everyone that would listen.
7. Since American Idol her career has been moving in an upward fashion.
If you’ve been following her then you’ve likely seen that Lauren’s career has been on the rise since she finished with Idol and she’s been doing her absolute best to push her music and build a legacy of her own as she’s been performing in front of crowds, doing interviews, and making sure that people are paying attention.
6. She struggled with bulimia as a teenager.
This seems to be one of the many problems that young people, young women especially sometimes, deal with upon growing up as body image becomes a very real issue and as a result tends to force people down a very harmful path. Thankfully she had a great support group and was able to find a way to move past this point in her life.
5. Her social media account has drawn quite a few interested followers.
One thing that seems to draw a lot of people is the fact that she’s completely smitten with her boyfriend and shares pic after pic of it on her Instagram account. Some folks might like this and some might roll their eyes but the truth is that a lot of them will still look because they’re interested in seeing what she has to show.
4. As of now her net worth is around $800 thousand.
That might sound a bit low but really when you look at it she’s still coming up in her career and hasn’t hit the same kind of fame that a lot of other artists have. This alone is a good reason why she still hasn’t seen her net worth top $1 million, but given the fact that she’s still fairly young she has a lot of time to really kick things into another gear and start making that upward climb towards a higher net worth.
3. It kind of sound as though she picked a career over college.
It might rankle a few people to think this but the truth is that college doesn’t work for everyone and quite honestly being able to start a career so soon and not have to pay back any student debt is preferable to some.
2. She did get to perform in the White House for Michelle and Barack Obama.
This seems like it would be the highlight of many a career since playing in the White House without bothering to know who the president is would be something that would definitely be a huge moment in anyone’s career.
1. Lauren has been nominated for many awards and has won several in her career thus far.
So far in her career she has won a few awards and has been widely recognized as a rising star and a very talented woman.
