Actress/singer Jana Kramer

Jana Kramer is an actress who can also sing country and western songs.  As an actress, she's as well known for TV commercials as for a TV show.

 

You know the stealthy, leather-clad woman in the Nationwide ads who breaks into homes and sets everything right - sort of like a cat burglar in reverse?  This is she.  But Jana Kramer is also known for playing Alex Dupre, a failed actress who becomes a clothing store model, in the TV drama "One Tree Hill."  She appeared in 38 episodes of that show.

Among the other shows Ms. Kramer has appeared in are "Friday Night Lights" and "Grey's Anatomy."

Oh yes, her country music career.  Ms. Kramer released her self-titled debut in 2012, and she broke out big with her single "Why You Wanna," which reached number three on the Billboard country singles chart.   


Ms. Kramer won the Top New Female Artist prize at the 2013 American Country Music Awards.  As of this writing, she is at work on her second album.
