Review coming soon.

Lead and infobox

• This article switches between Hirsh and Monogem when referring to her, please stick with Monogem as she's mononymously known as that
• "Jennifer Hirsh performing" → "Monogem performing"
• "singer" → "Singer"
• "Piano" → "piano"
• The fact that she plays piano isn't cited anywhere in the body
• None of the genres are cited in the body
• In the body, the year she married Jason Melvin is not given
• The second sentence of the lead should be what she's known for (i.e. taking part on American Idol)
• Italicize American Idol
• "which is also her first Spanish language album" → not cited in the body
• "where she placed in fifteenth place" → "where she placed fifteenth"
• "In the next two years" → "Two years later"

Early life and education

• The source doesn't give her full name nor her birth place and home town
• "She attended college at Berklee College of Music in Boston and graduated" → "She graduated from Berklee College of Music"
• That's all? Is there no more information on her life before American Idol?

Musical career

2012–2015: American Idol & Monogem

• The table needs a table caption
• The background information on what the Monogem Ring is WP:TOOMUCH
• "These singles got included" → "They were included"
• The music video sentence is unsourced

2016–2020: 100% & So Many Ways

• There's quite some repetition of "single" and "was released"
• Don't start sentences with And
• The "Paraíso" information is unsourced
• "This track is an ode to" → WP:TOOMUCH

2021–present: Gardenia

• "joined with a" → "accompanied by"
• "The debut album also included one of the tracks of So Many Ways EP, "Soy Lo Que Soy"." → WP:TOOMUCH
• Her son's birth date is unsourced
• "currently working" → WP:CURRENTLY
• You shouldn't have one-sentence paragraphs

Discography

• Remove the discography table on the right, it should only be used for separate discography articles
• All tables need a table caption
• "MONOGEM" → "Independent"
• "Format: vinyl, streaming, digital download" → "Format: LP, digital download, streaming"
• "streaming & digital download" → "Digital download, streaming"
• Don't bold Monogem
• "ft." → "featuring"

Music videos

• This entire section is unsourced
• The album should only be included if it is a video album

Filmography

• Needs a table caption
• For the headings, the year goes first and then the show
• "Herself/Contestant" → "Herself (contestant)"
• Don't put Season 11 in quotes

References

• Copyvio at just 9.9% looks great
• Ref 2 is unreliable per WP:ALBUMAVOID
• Ref 16 is unreliable (Wikipedia:Reliable_sources/Noticeboard/Archive_267#Hello!_Magazine)
• While Grimy Goods lists their writers, it looks like it is a blog according to their about page
• According to this, Indie Music Filter is also a blog and shouldn't be used
• Ref 23 is dead and it was hosted on Squarespace which makes it unreliable as anyone can create a website on Squarespace
• Both Le Catrina and Prism Boutique are online shops with blogs and without any credentials, I'm not sure they can be considered reliable sources

• Replace ref 41 per WP:RSSM

Outcome

• Unfortunately, I'm going to have to fail this nomination based on prose and sourcing. There is some unsourced content as well as some unreliable sources used in the article to support information. I spotted some prose issues as well, which include repetition and unnecessary information. You did a good job improving this article nonetheless so don't feel discouraged.
