Everything about her is outstanding, truly a star in the making.

You know Cruz is good when her tikTok videos have 47.5 million views. She covers hit songs like “Crazy” by Gnarls Barkley which got over 23 million views.

She was on her way to Home Depot in the hopes of getting a job but then decided to pursue her passion.

“I wanna sing,” Cruz said. “I don’t wanna not believe in myself and not try. I want to inspire people, to make them feel that you don’t have to be anything else but yourself. I don’t have to be the industry standard.”

Her song of choice was Everybody Loves an Outlaw’s “I See Red“, which is so perfect for her style. None of the four judges were expecting that kind of tone and power from the teenager.

Kristen can be found with around 250K followers on Instagram @kristenncruz.
She’s got celebrity followers like David Arquette, Grey’s Anatomy star Ellen Pompeo, and West Side Story actor Arian DeBose. Cruz is an online star but she’s hungry for more!
