Pleasant Run Farms native Danielle White has become the final member of Fox's American Juniors singing group.

The 11-year-old, whose family moved to Bradenton, Fla., on Tuesday night joined Taylor Thompson and Tori Thompson, both of Santa Maria, Calif., Chauncey Matthews of San Diego and Lucy Hale of Memphis, Tenn.

The newly formed group will perform on the American Juniors season finale on Tuesday (8 p.m., Channels 19, 45).

"I'm higher than a helium balloon," said her grandfather, the Rev. Jack White, by telephone from Hollywood. "It's transformed her life forever. But she's still a shy, innocent, sweet little girl."

Danielle sang "Colors of the Wind" and then joined the other four members of the group for "Never Had a Dream Come True" on Tuesday's show.

A full-length CD - Kids In America from Jive Records - featuring singles by the 10 finalists from Fox's younger version of American Idol, will be released Sept. 9.

The five-member final group's debut album will be released later this year by Jive.

Danielle's parents, Brian and Jeannie White, are working out who will stay with Danielle during talk show appearances, recordings and tours. Danielle also has an older brother, Andrew, who tried out for the show, too.

Members of White's congregation at Faith Christian Fellowship had been among those voting for Danielle as the show progressed. They hope to have her come back and sing at the church sometime soon, White said.

"It's kind of overwhelming to us," he said. "It just seems surreal."

'The Next' rap contest

Showtime is getting into the talent-contest game with a six-part series that searches for great undiscovered rappers.

Interscope Presents The Next, to debut this fall, is essentially American Idol for hip-hop, although the network describes it as a reality-TV version of the 8 Mile MC battles.

"The show paints a picture of what countless kids in America are trying to do right now - become successful in rap music," says Jimmy Iovine, chairman of music conglomerate Interscope Geffen A&M and an executive producer of the show.

The Next will travel to Atlanta, Los Angeles, Detroit, New York and Philadelphia - all centers of hip-hop music and culture - for a series of auditions. Judges, including guest MCs and DJs, will then pick two people to square off for a spot in the finals.

Viewers will pick the winner.
