Ashley Coulter

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ashley Coulter is a Canadian singer and the sixth-place finalist in the 2006 season of Canadian Idol. She was born and raised in Emeryville, Ontario (near Windsor), but currently lives in London, Ontario.

Before her debut on Canadian Idol in late May of 2006, she worked as a cashier in London: most recently at The Real Canadian Superstore in northwest London for about two months, and previously at Angelo's Bakery & Deli, also in northwest London. Both stores displayed signs of support outside their establishments during Coulter's tenure on Idol. In an interview on London radio station CJBK following her elimination, Coulter stated that she does not intend to return to working as a cashier and instead wishes to continue pursuing her music career.

Prior to auditioning for Idol, Coulter was a singer in a local rock band called Nemesis. She auditioned in Kitchener, where she claimed to be "better than a bar singer" that judge Farley Flex called her; Coulter was backed up by judge Zack Werner who supported her.
