Kate Voegele may look a little familiar.
This season, the pretty Ohio lass with the pin-straight dark brown hair, those shy, flickering eyes, and her perfectly plumped lips joined the cast of “One Tree Hill” in a multi-episode arc as singer-songwriter Mia.
At first, fans of the show saw her as the shy, piano-playing backing member of Jason’s (Kevin Federline) band. As his ego grew, however, and her talent was observed by Peyton (Hilarie Burton), Jason was dropped and Mia was dragged out of her shell, eventually becoming a super successful music star in the fictional “One Tree Hill” world.
Now, this AccessHollywood.com Rising Star is poised to do the same thing in real life.
