Carly Rae Jepsen




"Call Me Maybe" shot Carly Rae Jepsen to pop stardom, but Canadians knew her from her third place finish in Canadian Idol. She also earned two gold singles and two Juno music award nominations in her home country before making it big. Just a few days ago she took home three trophies at Sunday's Juno Awards, including Album of the Year for Kiss. Other hits off Carly Rae's Kiss album include "Good Time" with Owl City and "This Kiss."
Check out her summer tour dates here.


What is Carly Rae Jepsen reading?

According to the April 29, 2013 issue of Us Weekly, Carly Rae always has a good book with her. She says, "I'm now reading Cheryl Strayed's memoir, Wild - I totally recommend it."

The memoir, Wild: From Lost to Found on the Pacific Crest Trail, "powerfully captures the terrors and pleasures of one young woman forging ahead against all odds on a journey that maddened, strengthened, and ultimately healed her." (summary from Barnes and Noble)
