Nikki McKibbin Biography
As a biography, Nikki McKibbin was born Katherine Nicole McKibbin on September 28, 1978 in Grand Prairie, Texas, so her age is 29. Her measurements are 5′2″. After high school in Texas, where she was a cheerleader, Nikki attended and graduated from cosmetology school. She also founded the karaoke business Angelfire Productions, which she sold in 2005 to pursue her music career.
Nikki has a son, Tristen, age 10, who she supported at one point by stripping.
In 2002, Nikki joined the debut season of American Idol, where she ended up placing third, under Justin Guarini and Kelly Clarkson. Some questioned whether Nikki’s length of stay was helped by internet auto-dialers, though AI producers said that wasn’t the case.
After the loss, she was offered contracts with 19 Management and RCA Records, but she got out of them because she would have had to record a country album. Nikki was able to garner $125,000 from the deal, even without recording anything. Still, Nikki continued pursuing her music career, releasing the single “The Lie” in 2006, and teaching voice lessons to children on the side. Her debut album with band Rivethead was released on May 22, 2007.
McKibbin also took part in a reality stars’ Christmas album called “Christmas in the Fishbowl” in 2004. In 2006, Nikki appeared on Fear Factor - Reality Stars.
Nikki says her favorite song is “Unchained Melody” by The Righteous Brothers. Her first concert was Stevie Nicks.
