Keep the name Gina Venier in your mind as you watch the 14th season premiere of 'American Idol' tonight and tomorrow on Fox. She's the one we should be rooting for!

Gina Venier is a 24-year old Dixon native who has been performing throughout the area for many years, and has quickly become a local favorite.

Even better yet? She loves Keith Urban too! I found the proof on her Facebook page....

 

Good luck, Gina! We'll be watching and hoping you score a "golden ticket!"
