[edit] Biography
Allison was an accomplished singer at an early age. In 1997 she won four gold medals at the World Championships of Performing Arts in the categories Gospel, Country, Broadway and Adult Contemporary.[citation needed]
In 2000, the president of record label 2K Sounds Michael Blakey heard a song on her website and asked her to audition.[citation needed] At the age of 14 she was signed to Virgin Records/2K Sounds. She was among the first artists to be marketed as a product of the internet.[citation needed] Her first single "The Kiss-Off (Goodbye)" had an internet theme and peaked at #28 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart.[citation needed] She released a full length self-titled album, Brooke Allison, which received mixed reviews and had somewhat disappointing sales.[citation needed]
In addition to her solo album she also sang on the soundtrack of Cinderella II: Dreams Come True which was released in 2002 and went to acting when she appeared on the Nickelodeon sitcom Taina in the second season's second episode "Sabotage".
Her next single was supposed to be "I Thought You Might Wanna Know"[citation needed] but 2K Sounds folded some time after and left Allison without a record label.
