Idol Star Haley Reinhart Signed To Interscope!

See? You don’t need to win American Idol to become a star. Hell, you don’t even need to make it into the top five!

Haley Reinhart was a fan favorite and third runner-up this past season on American Idol. Girl’s got soul and she’s got funk and now, she’s got a record deal with 19 Entertainment/Interscope Records. A rep for the label confirms that Haley has just inked her contract for a solo album and will get started right away.

For those you who missed out on her growl and bite this season, have a listen to her rendition of Benny & The Jets in the video (above).

Fierce!!!
