Jax's first post-''Idol'' recording, "La La Land", was released on January 6, 2016.<ref>{{cite web|last1=Spadea|first1=Bill|title=Jax peels back the curtain with new single 'LaLaLand'|url=http://nj1015.com/jax-peels-back-the-curtain-with-new-single-lalaland/|website=[[WKXW]]|date=January 4, 2016 |accessdate=January 6, 2016}}</ref> The video for "La La Land", her first music video, was released later that day. "La La Land" is about Jax's experience on ''American Idol''.<ref>Jax in {{cite magazine|url=http://www.billboard.com/articles/news/6835390/american-idol-alum-jax-la-la-land-video|title='American Idol' Alum Jax Addresses 'Sometimes Bitter' TV Experience in 'La La Land' Video: Watch|date=January 7, 2016 |accessdate=May 19, 2017|first= Fred |last=Bronson|magazine=[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]]| archivedate= February 24, 2017|archiveurl= https://web.archive.org/web/20170224200333/http://www.billboard.com/articles/news/6835390/american-idol-alum-jax-la-la-land-video |url-status=live|quote=[I]t was the platform of a lifetime and it opened up all these doors for me. ...

In 2017 she released the [[Extended Play|EP]], ''Funny,'' which charted at number 17 on the ''[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]]'' [[Heatseekers Albums]].<ref>{{cite magazine |title=Jax – Chart history: Heatseekers Albums |magazine=[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]] |url=https://www.billboard.com/artist/jax/chart-history/tln/ |access-date=December 5, 2021}}</ref>

In 2018, Jax was invited to perform at the White House's Independence Day celebration.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Makin |first1=Cheryl |title=East Brunswick's Jax to sing at White House on July 4; just back from Israel |url=https://eu.mycentraljersey.com/story/entertainment/2018/07/02/jax-white-house-hallmark-july-4-israel-birthright/709994002/ |publisher=My Central Jersey |date=2018}}</ref> This caused some controversy, due to feelings surrounding Trump's presidency at the time. Jax then appeared on ''[[Fox and Friends]]'' to defend her decision to perform at the White House, calling criticism of her White House appearance "vulgarity" and "bullying" rather than political commentary.<ref>{{cite web |title='American Idol' star defends accepting White House invite |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGN5TosvL6w |website=YouTube| date=July 3, 2018 }}</ref> She continued to explain that she comes from a "really patriotic family", and that she was intending on honoring the troops during this celebration without listening to the "pettiness" coming from public forums.<ref>{{cite web |title=''American Idol'' star defends accepting White House invite |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGN5TosvL6w |website=YouTube| date=July 3, 2018 }}</ref>

Jacqueline Cole Miskanic Gregg (born May 5, 1996),[1] known professionally as Jax, is an American singer-songwriter who participated in the fourteenth season of American Idol, an American singing competition series.

She first appeared on the Billboard Hot 100 with the song "Victoria's Secret".

Early life

[edit]

Jax was raised in Atlantic Beach, New York,[2][3] and moved with her family in 2005 to East Brunswick, New Jersey.[4][5] She began singing at age 5.[6] Her father, John, a Catholic of Italian and Croatian descent, was a firefighter who was injured on duty during the September 11 attacks, and her mother, Jill, a Jewish woman, is a New York City school teacher.[7] After attending the East Brunswick Public Schools, Jax was homeschooled starting in the eighth grade in order to allow her sufficient time for voice lessons, performances, and recording.[8][9]

In mid-2014, she studied at New York University in London, where she won a John Lennon Scholarship in songwriting via the BMI Foundation.[10]

Career

[edit]

American Idol

[edit]

In 2015, Jax auditioned for the fourteenth season of American Idol, with the song "I Want to Hold Your Hand" by The Beatles.[11] She sang "Toxic" by Britney Spears for her first solo audition during Hollywood Week. Jax sang The Beatles' "Let It Be" for her final solo performance. She was the only contestant out of 80 to be declared safe immediately after the performance.[10] In April 2015, Jax became New Jersey's most successful American Idol contestant.[12] She performed Janis Joplin's "Piece of My Heart" with Steven Tyler during the show's season finale.[13] Jax finished third in the competition, and her first single, "Forcefield", was released following the finale.[14] In July 2015, Jax and the other top five American Idol contestants began the American Idols LIVE! Tour 2015.[15] The tour began in Clearwater, Florida and ended on August 28, 2015, in Riverside, California. The top 3 all released a single each, the top 4 all released an extended play each, American Idol Season 14: Best of Jax - EP, and the season 14 top 9, 8, 7, 6, and 5 all released a contribution each.

Post-Idol

[edit]
Jax speaks to NJ 101.5 radio in 2015

Jax's first post-Idol recording, "La La Land", was released on January 6, 2016.[16] The video for "La La Land", her first music video, was released later that day. "La La Land" is about Jax's experience on American Idol.[17]

In 2017 she released the EP, Funny, which charted at number 17 on the Billboard Heatseekers Albums.[18]

In 2018, Jax was invited to perform at the White House's Independence Day celebration.[19] This caused some controversy, due to feelings surrounding Trump's presidency at the time. Jax then appeared on Fox and Friends to defend her decision to perform at the White House, calling criticism of her White House appearance "vulgarity" and "bullying" rather than political commentary.[20] She continued to explain that she comes from a "really patriotic family", and that she was intending on honoring the troops during this celebration without listening to the "pettiness" coming from public forums.[21]

JAX performing 'Iconic' with Simple Plan (John Cain Arena, Melbourne)(2024)

In January 2021, she signed a record deal with Atlantic Records.[22] In October 2021, her song "Like My Father" debuted at number 38 on the Billboard Adult Pop Airplay, her first song to chart on Billboard's charts.[23]

In November 2021, Jax posted a dramatic TikTok reading of her ex-boyfriend's apology text messages after he cheated on her. The reading was accompanied with music by Lindsey Stirling.[24] Jax and Stirling say they received hundreds of similar text messages from fans, and plan to turn them into a TikTok series.[25]

In 2022, she released her single "Victoria's Secret." Victoria's Secret charted at number thirty-five on the Billboard Hot 100, as well as being certified Gold in the United States. It also charted in Australia, Ireland, Canada, Sweden, and New Zealand.[26] Her next single, "Cinderella Snapped"[27], did not chart in the Hot 100. In October 2023, Jax joined Canadian rock band Simple Plan for a re-recorded version of the track "Iconic" from their 2022 album Harder Than It Looks.[28] In 2024, Jax joined Simple Plan on their Australian tour, with We the Kings and Boys Like Girls.[29] On June 28, 2024, she released her debut studio album Dear Joe,.

Personal life

[edit]

In August 2016, Jax revealed that she was battling thyroid cancer,[2] but has since been declared cancer-free.[citation needed]

Jax married Brave Gregg in November 2023.[30]
