Brandi Gibson

AGE: 21

CURRENTLY RESIDES/HOMETOWN: Arlington, Kentucky

BIO: Brandi is the girl you love to root for. She's no size-2 cutout of the Nashville ideal, but is big and brassy and loves the blues and the honky-tonk sounds of the 1970s. Brandi works as an emergency dispatch operator in tiny Mayfield, KY.

QUOTE: "I am bad, bold and buxom. I am soulful and sassy, and I'll show it with a song."
