Allison Iraheta feels the second best thing she loves to do is to talk, the first obviously being singing. As a kid she was always made to sit in the corner, since she would keep talking all the time. "I was a little troublemaker. They used to sit me in the corner because I would talk so much. I'm still a talker but I've learned to control myself", said this American Idol finalist.

Allison Iraheta, the 16 year old singer from Los Angeles began performing as a singer from the age of 5. To sing to her grand mother, Allison learnt spanish. "She learned so she could sing for my mother. She sang for my mother in '99, and then in 2000 my mother passed away", her mother said in a recent interview.

Allison is the youngest and the most balanced singer of this season. She is a judges favorite and seems in every probability would be saved by them if she is voted out by the audience. But the 16 year old has a big flaw - there is nothing to keep you at a fix in her personality. Allison has a strong similarities with Kelly Clarkson and would manage a 4th place it seems.
