Kellie Pickler now has her own sweepstakes to go along with her new “Small Town Girl” album.

Here are some of the details:

• Free roundtrip coach airfare for two.
• Hotel accommodations in Minneapolis for 3 days/2 nights.
• Roundtrip shuttle transportation between the Airport and the Hotel.
• $250 shopping money for use at the Mall of America.
• And you’ll see Kellie perform live and meet her at the Mall of America!

Granted, I’ve never been to Minneapolis, but I’d think we could have done a little bit better on the location of a sweepstakes don’t you?

“I’ve just tried to put a piece of my life in each one of the songs to kind of make the listeners feel like I’m singing to them,” she says. “‘American Idol’ showcased a lot of my personality and a lot about my family, but there’s so much that ‘Idol’ didn’t reveal about my life. So with this album I’m trying to let everyone know who I am. It’s a fun album. There’s fast songs, ones that you can tap your feet to, as well as ones about getting your heart broken. It definitely covers all the feelings and aspects of life.”
