The winner for this season’s American Idol is Jordin Sparks, after a new record of 74 million votes. Jordin is the youngest winner in the show’s history. Jordin, 17, prevailed over Blake Lewis, 25, after her performance Tuesday night when she wowed the judges and the viewers.
One of the first things she said was “Mom, Dad, I love you.” Her dad is retired NFL player, Phillippi Sparks. In an interview backstage she remembered talking with her dad about how she used to watch him sign autographs. Her dad replied “You’re more famous than me now” Jordin thinks that is weird.
Jordin was asked if she thought she grew as an artist during the competition with the judges’ remarks, and she said “I totally think I did, I’ve just been trying to top myself each week… I would sing my song and then after I was done I was, ‘OK, what am I going to do next week that’s going to be …just as good or better?’”
The finale was between the better entertainer and the stronger singer. Jordin stood out with her powerful voice and Blake for his sound effects and dance moves. Many celebrities were talking about how good she was and how talented she was for her age. Some guest stars in the show’s finale were, Gwen Stefani, Green Day, Bette Midler, Tony Bennett, Kelly Clarkson, Taylor Hicks, Ruben Studdard, Carrie Underwood, Gladys Knight, and Robinson from the Miracles. Carrie Underwood was honored by legendary Clive Davis for reaching 6 million in sales for her debut album “Some Hearts.”
The finale included “Golden Idol” and award for the oddest auditions, or in other words the worst. Also the fan favorite Sanjaya had a special performance, who sang “Ooh Baby Baby”

My thoughts
I am so happy Jordin won me and my minions voted like 3 million times for her. I liked Blake too but Jordin was my favorite from the beginning well after Sanjaya got voted off. Congratulations Jordin!
