The pixie-ish Carmen Rasmusen (Season 2) was a fan favorite, getting voted back on the show as a Wild Card after an initial early elimination, due to her petite blonde nonthreatening demeanor. She spoke often of her strong Morman upbringing and the morality and values it imparted and seemed determined to be one of the contestants "who would also be a good role model" for young girls. Naturally, this gave comedian Kathy Griffin ample ammunition to include her in her act (during which she often name-dropped Kelly Clarkson and outed fellow Season 2 contestant Clay Aiken), but Rasmusen stuck to her beliefs, releasing a squeaky clean EP in in 2004 and then writing a book called "Staying In Tune" that basically serves as a hundred-plus page interview on how she manages to hold onto her values while facing the temptations of the entertainment industry. Little Rasmusen was married in December 2005 and was scheduled to give birth this past Christmas Eve, though at press time no official announcement of the birth has been made. It seems Rasmusen is doing what she can to keep her family out of the public eye.
