I really like the American Idol contestant, Brooke White. She is adorably wholesome and cute and talented and sings and plays keys just like my friend Amy Jo! I don't have a pic with Amy Jo's full glory (her hair) tumbling around her shoulders, but if I did, you'd be shocked!
Brooke is very engaging (age 24) and even though I doubt she'll actually become the next American Idol, I am so glad she made the top 24 and I can see a future for her in the industry. She is a very young, fresh Carole-King-type.
Amy Jo (age 30…am I suppose to reveal that?) and I love to sit at the piano and wail out the old hymns.
Apparently I was the first to notice the similiarity between Amy Jo and Brooke, but other people had noticed Amy Jo looking quite a bit like Cate Blanchett and Rosamund Pike. See for yourself:
Amy Jo-you're a star!

I thought the exact same thing when I saw Brooke White! I told Bry come look at this girl, she looks like AmyJo. But I enjoy AmyJo's personality much more. AmyJo you're a star in my eyes!
Awww… you guys are so sweet! And FUNNY! But this Brooke girl can play piano like nobody's business–wish that WERE me! Nah. Hee, hee. And–kind of shocked you don't already know who she is–Rosamund Pike is the chick that plays Jane Bennet in "Pride and Prejudice." I also get Jenna Elfman sometimes–in fact, I've had people decide to just call me "Dharma" instead of trying to remember "Amy Jo." Actually, I prefer "Dharma" to "Mary Jo" or "Angel" any day! Thanks again, Jeanie. You're sweet. Happy Valentine's Day!
Yes, well-it turns out I have seen her work (as my daughters informed me), but she is out of costume here. T-hee.
Oh and yes-I can see the Jenna Elfman thing, too. Hmmm…
