SourcesPeople are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject.
- If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability; trivial coverage of a subject by secondary sources is not usually sufficient to establish notability.
The article notes: "Mikalah Gordon was only 17 years old when she landed in the Top 12 of American Idol’s fourth season, which kick-started her career with a national audience that took to her unique stage presence and powerful vocals. Although the artist has ventured into acting, comedy, and serves as the host for Channel Q’s Morning Beat, discussing the latest in LGBTQ news, pop culture, and entertainment, she has not released a full-length record until now."
The article notes: "Mikalah Gordon was a polarizing figure from season four in 2005. She started out with a lot of refreshing attitude, then kind of melted into confusion over her image and sound. And her diction while singing was odd to say the least. She didn't quite disappear after "Idol," doing some hosting work for Fox Reality Channel's "Idol" roundups for a couple of years, acting as a correspondent for "The Tyra Banks Show," plus playing a spoiled pop star on "The Unit." She also portrayed Fran Drescher's cousin on Fran's sitcom "Living With Fran." And now she's on her first big reality show since "Idol" called "Gone Country 2," where this Jewish, Italian gal from Vegas attempts to "go country.""
The article notes: "Mikalah Gordon made her singing debut on “American Idol” when she was only sixteen years old and since then she has taken off as a singer, songwriter and even had a comedy stint at one point."
The article notes: "At only 17 years old, Mikalah Gordon rose to national prominence as a top 12 finalist in season four of American Idol. Since then, her career has continued to flourish as a sought-after host, comedian, and highly visible LGBTQ plus luminary. She joined Inside South Florida to talk about her highly anticipated debut album, “Vivian,” and the inspiration behind her latest single off the album, “Hands Off.”"
The article notes: "Like most students at the Las Vegas Academy of International Studies, Performing & Visual Arts, Mikalah Gordon dreamed of stardom. Unlike most, Gordon saw her dream come true. In 2005, the 16-year-old Las Vegan became an "American Idol" finalist. ... Now, Gordon appears on the second season of "Gone Country," the Country Music Television reality series in which B-list celebs room together while competing to write and record the best country song. ... Gordon’s love of music is unquestionable. Her dad, Rocky, is a jazz saxophonist (as was his dad, Irv). Gordon sang with Rocky onstage as a tyke, and on his 2001 album, "Perfect World." From ages 6 to 12, she sang with the Helen Joy Young Entertainers, which provided both singing lessons and the opportunity to carol for President Clinton at the White House."
The article notes: "Gordon, a junior at Cimarron-Memorial, was among the 12 female finalists who competed Tuesday night on the Fox hit show. Mikalah, who turned 17 on January 14, "has always had the `X' factor, like Simon (judge Simon Cowell) talks about. It's like holding back a freight train," said her father, a jazz musician who helped mold a special talent and has been working with her since Mikalah qualified at the Las Vegas auditions."
The article notes: "But Mikalah Gordon has found a way to make it pay off.Rather than being confined to a gig in one of the Strip's tribute shows, the "American Idol" finalist has parlayed that resemblance into a role on this week's season premiere of Drescher's sitcom, "Living With Fran" (9:30 p.m. Thursday, KVWB-TV, Channel 21). Gordon plays Brianna, the Broadway-singing cousin of Drescher's character. The role is the culmination of nearly a lifetime of comparisons."
