Despite hundreds of reports to the contrary, “American Idol” Jordin Sparks wasn’t born on Staten Island, according to the Staten Island Advance.
On Dec. 22, 1989, Jodi Wiedmann gave birth to a healthy baby girl at St. Joseph’s Hospital in Phoenix.
“I can definitely confirm that Jordin and I were at St. Joe’s in Phoenix on the morning of Dec. 22, 1989!” Ms. Sparks’ mother said.
When the New York Post reported in April that Ms. Sparks was an Island native, they had it wrong, as did subsequent reports in papers from Virginia to Singapore, Staten Island Advance informs.
