Jessica Sanchez denies she's adopted

2013 has been good for Jessica Sanchez. She visited the White House twice, made an appearance on the hit show Glee, sang the National Anthem for Manny Pacquiao’s fight in Macau, and recorded two music albums.

She shared her blessings to her pinoy kababayans via charity missions in General Santos City, South Cotabato and Lipa City, Batangas.

However, intrigues continue to hound the American Idol season 11 first runner-up. In a recent press conference, she was asked if she was a hundred percent Pinay and that her Mexican father only adopted her. Jessica and her mother were both surprised at the question, but they laughed it off. “My dad is Mexican and his name is Gilbert Sanchez and [he] is my biological father.”

Jessica was also upfront when it came to her love life. According to her she is still single after her breakup last year with her American Idol co-contestant Deandre Brackensick.
