Georgia Connick, the teenage daughter of 'American Idol' judge Harry Connick Jr., could be facing charges of permitting and procuring alcohol for minors.

The 19-year-old reportedly hosted a party at her family's New Canaan, Connecticut home this weekend while her parents were away, according to local news WTNH. Shortly after 1 a.m. on Saturday morning, police got a call that there was underage drinking taking place at the residence.

Georgia told police that she intended only to have a small gathering, but uninvited guests showed up at her house. Law enforcement told NBC New York that they found several beer cans at the residence.
