OK, am I the ONLY one who thinks Jordin is overrated? Yes she sang "Broken Wing" adequately, but I wasn't jumping out of my seat. She missed a couple of notes during the song and added NO personality to it. Jordin is good, but everyone keeps talking about her age and how young she is and she's so amazing for being so young. As a 44 year old singer, I've got news for you: singing gets more challenging the OLDER you get. And even at my age, I still can sing that song exactly like Martina McBride does it. What is more difficult is taking a song and singing it BETTER than the original artist. If Jordan had taken the initiative and altered the arrangement just a tiny bit, made it just a little bit more difficult (maybe some extra runs or a modulation in the middle) then she would be worthy of your undying praise. I think she has the talent to do this but because of her age, lacks the confidence. This is very typical of very good singers her age. As far as a nickname goes, how about Grace since she doesn't have any on stage? Or how about Xerox since she doesn't have any originality.
