In early 2002, she returned to Lou Pearlman, and proceeded to sing for him again and perform a piano medley. Pearlman was impressed, and Hogan was immediately signed as a Trans Continental Records artist. At one time she was handled by the management services of Larry Rudolph, well-known for representing famous clients like Britney Spears and Nick Lachey. Her first song in the United States singles charts was "Everything to Me". Hogan was the first artist signed to Scott Storch's record label Storchaveli.[3][4] Hogan's video premiered on the season two finale of Hogan Knows Best.
