Any type of previous involvement in the music industry will help a contestant to some extent. Growing up as a kid, regardless of if the parent is actively involved in your life, you still see their lifestyle. And, as kids will, they will attempt to emulate their parents. Where this comes into play is that she has probably been driven from a very young age to excel in the music industry. Plus, they have seen the effects and what it takes to be successful. All of this will work to her advantage..
She has the raw talent to be there, now it will be about image and work ethic. I would think, from what I've seen, that she is marketable enough(as long as you have the basics, your PR peeps will do the rest). The rest comes down to work ethic and ability to handle the lifestyle, and coming from that background I would think that she does. So, yes, it should help.
