Matinee 'Idols'

Carmen Rasmusen, "Pride and Prejudice"

Idol history: Categorized as a Canadian-American country singer (like Shania, ya’ll!), Carmen placed sixth in the second season of “Idol.”

Big screen role: “Pride and Prejudice” has seen more than its share of theatric interpretations—some of them less worthwhile than others. Carmen appeared in a 2003 Mormon-ized incarnation that you probably didn’t see.

Will she ever win an Oscar? We’re not even sure Canadians qualify.
