Current American Idol auditions may be pushed to the side of the news for a bit later this week when a former series finalist releases her sex tape.

Here is a press release from adult movie company Vivid Entertainment promoting the Jessica Sierra sex tape:

While former American Idol finalist Jessica Sierra completes her current rehab in nearby Pasadena, Vivid Entertainment, the world’s leading adult film studio, will release a steamy sex tape starring the troubled singer.

"Jessica Sierra Superstar" will go on sale January 30th in retail stores nationwide and online at http://jessicasuperstar.com.

"It’s an exceptionally explicit series of vignettes both solo and with Charles "C" Youngblood a man she met at a Hooters bar in Tampa.

The tape also reveals much about the personality of Jessica and gives some insight that would be helpful for anyone curious as to how she has arrived at her current situation in life," according to Steven Hirsch, co-chairman of Vivid Entertainment.

With scenes captured in various locations around Tampa, the sex tape demonstrates that Sierra has talents never imagined by the national television audience that voted her as a finalist in the fourth season of American Idol.

She was eliminated on March 30, 2005 after she sang "On the Side of Angels" and since then has led a stormy life that has included run-ins with law enforcement.

Sierra is one of the bold-face names documented in VH1's new reality series, "Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew", in which David Drew "Dr. Drew" Pinsky follows the detoxification and treatment process of show business personalities.

Sierra is currently at the Pasadena Recovery Center, which she entered after a Florida judge granted her a special 45-day travel permit.
