American Idol Winners

[@BrittanyCSwartz]

I miss the original American Idol with Randy, Paula and Simon. And Carrie and Kelly are forever my top 2 idols!!

[@josephfer07]

David Cook has the best Idol winning moment!! Kelly and Carrie will be the queens!! And David the King!

[@finniganhamilton9805]

still really gets me mad that kris scotty and lee won. instead, it should've been adam, crystal, and haley

[@mattchoman9737]

Scotty I would disagree on, it’s all preferences. Adam I agree, but more people liked Kris’s style.

[@gleefanatic2013]

I bet the season with David Cook and David Archuletta was Ryan's favorite to announce because he got to drag it out even longer with the "is... David..." We all know Ryan Seacrest likes to keep everyone in suspense on idol

[@rikardopardede]

you haven't watched Indonesian Idol winner announcement then. Try one! The full announcement since the two finales wee standing together. lol

[@saraherrera522]

Even though Adam is my favorite contestant ever, i have to admit i like carries first audition best of all the winners

[@KayKayLuvsMcr]

I couldn't believe when Scotty won. He shouldn't have even made it that far. Also, Adam Lambert was clearly the winner of that season

[@finniganhamilton9805]

i know right.

[@sarakennedy2633]

Kelly will ALWAYS BE MY FAVORITE idol.

[@MrNavigator206]

fantasia, kelly, and carrie! Are the BEST obviously....

[@IK-fg4gw]

Yessssss

[@sunnyvega1032]

ordin Sparks tho!! damnnn girl! sing it

[@imarunner89]

Carrie, Scotty, and Kelly are my favorites!

[@houssamlabiod]

You're the best Kelly!

[@himynamesaseason]

wow david cook and kris allen all in one video. it's just tooo much hotness.

[@maybeimjustadreamer7]

David Cook ♥ Hands down best Idol winner.

[@maybeimjustadreamer7]

Playing shows, promoting a new record. Ya know, the normal things musicians do to make a living. It's just an opinion. No need to be antagonistic.

[@rikardopardede]

+maybeimjustadreamer7 look at this nora stack, everywhere dropping hatred all over the comment sections. what a troll! just leave him be

[@brewerrkjb]

+maybeimjustadreamer7 - Nah, Carrie Underwood. Or, the best non-winner, Chris Daughtry.

[@yesitsme9]

Taylor Hicks is a great talent and is now headlining at Ballys Las Vegas. The only winner or not who's snag a much sought after residency. Awesome live performer.

[@JosephMP38]

Ryan: The winner of American Idol Season 3 is... [Fantasia starts hugging Diana fiercely] Ryan: Um... Fantasia. I didn't announce it yet.

[@houssamlabiod]

To me Katherine should have won the 5th season

[@jacksonia7724]

I agree

[@greendayanddavidcook]

david cook 4 ever david is the best american idol winner ever because i love his music and also he is very very very hit

[@mchcatsa]

Scotty!!!!!!!!!!!!! love how much he has grown - he is such a good performer. New CD out this Oct

[@StarOceanSora360]

but Kelly Clarkson is by far the most successful contest winner and is the true ultimate megastar

[@alternate2112]

Jessica Meuse should be the next winner on season 13 of American Idol

[@musicmintPatti]

5:22 wow I have never heard Kelly Clarkson sing that high!

[@mds3443]

Kelly,Carrie,Scotty,Phillip

[@moeknuprawk]

Please include season 11 in this montage :)

[@trea3123]

Carrie Underwood is the ultimate idol!

[@yesitsme9]

Taylor Hicks has more soul in his little pinky than the rest of them combined.

[@tg193]

Still pisses me off that Kris, Lee and Scotty won. It should've been Adam, Crystal and Haley

[@bstuper001]

The most successful so far have been Kelly, Carrie, and Scotty. Lauren and Chris Daughtry are too even though they didnt win.

[@annm861]

Adam Lambert has been pretty successful as well. he got himself a few hits on the radio and performed with Queen

[@azzz7279]

Jordin Sparks is a successful winner

[@4evergleek97]

LMFAO. Kris Allens face when he won!

[@Didi77478]

I wonder if Ryan ever mistakened the winner and no one figures out lol

[@alioleary9745]

I'm crying so hard right now😭😭😭I hate this

[@MeTaLLiCaT8282]

David Cook and Kelly Clarkson are the best two!

[@tylerasberry6799]

Carrie

[@canyoubelievethis220]

Little Carrie Underwood has been the most successful with Rueben Studdard and Taylor Hicks being the least successful. I do think that both Scotty McCreery and Philip Philips will make it big. Philips will probaby go into show business because of his looks - he by far is the best looking American Idol there has been (running a close second would be Kris Allen).

[@hoyamana]

lol that guy man he knows.... He knows.

[@rikardopardede]

which guy?

[@joydcarter]

Taylor has been signed to do a summer stint in Las Vegas. This achievement has never been done by any idol contestant or any idol winner. Congrats Taylor on being my favorite idol.

[@tkmorrison6404]

Diane Carter haha yeah right. Taylor has had zero success compared to a handful of other winners and contestants. You’re quite behind.

[@dannycena42]

FANTASIA.~!

[@saraherrera522]

Season 8 the year Adam got robbed!

[@annm861]

Not really. He got himself a few hits on the radio and has performed with Queen. Chris Allen isn’t doing anything relevant that I know of.

[@faithfulgrl]

@@annm861 I could listen to Clay anytime. The winners NEED to surround themselves with great business people. Clay Aiken got 2nd place. Got great people around him. We love him! 💖 He's got my 💜 💙 HEART 💚 💛

[@il0vethis]

Kelly Clarkson is the best and ultimate idol.

[@macistenatividad5026]

Adam Lambert is the best singer , second to none from American Idol ..

[@faithfulgrl]

Adam went on tour with Queen. Singing for Freddy Mercury. I love Freddy. He will always be in our hearts. To sing so well in his place, is nothing short of a privilege.✌ God Bless Him🙏🏾

[@abigailmartinez5086]

I do love Carrie but Kelly is the best American Idol.

[@Mattyhull1]

@tg193 deal with it man just because they didn't win does not mean they arn't going to have long careers ahead of them even though they did not win they are still going to do very good take Adam he's doing GREAT!!!!

[@vcbxo101]

phillip phillips

[@MrDavid51798]

Scotty should have been American idol

[@marianoalb7272]

How I would love to see La'Porsha among the Winners but America always lets their hormones rule...

[@faithfulgrl]

I can't even remember the guy who won. I think the reason he did, is because he really grew as a singer. La'Porsha is one of the greats & always will be!

[@iKneelB4Scarecrow]

David Cook is the best

[@amazinggrace007au]

Woohooo

[@dave-filio8294]

and its over... somebody stop the over...

[@shaneDfan1234]

is it me or does that last guy look like Joseph Gordon

[@bibynatural10]

Fantasia, Kelly, and Carrie are the most successful

[@97979hay]

jordan sparks>>>>>

[@123kaylon]

carrie all the way

[@mollysouth3987]

Best voice at the auditions was Fantasia and Taylor Hicks.

[@DeezyDoesIt22]

To say that the drop off of vocal quality from DC to Kris is "substantial" would be a jarring understatement. No offense to Kris, but we all know who won that season...

[@ClaraBelle115]

Someday Jessica Sanchez will be the winner!

[@dylanfanzo5756]

Crystal Bowersox should have won

[@james57101]

00:26

[@treykrumel3713]

Taylor Hicks Should've Never Won American Idol Chris Daughty Cleary was the winner of that year.

[@renzcruz3339]

scotty is the best american idol 2nd is david cook that's for sure... i promise

[@Christiancolon1996]

You forgot Jennifer Hudson

[@tkmorrison6404]

Christian Colon She wasn’t a winner.

[@imtoxicAF]

wheres miley cyrus? I thought she won one?

[@blancarodriguez8142]

Sorry?

[@criviokvk6274]

+Blanca Rodriguez 😂😂😂

[@madetocomment2012]

Is Carrie Underwood marry?

[@MrDavid51798]

Scotty shouldnr have been American idol

[@justinchester0018]

Season 8 is SOOOOOOOOOOO WRONG!!

[@Deidara188]

Fantasia was a disappointment with her career

[@TeamTasia418]

Sarah Perez how is that when she is a platinum and gold artist and she shes rnb not country thats what people fail to realize country sells

[@joseluvs69]

She is to you not to us!

[@houssamlabiod]

+Sarah Perez I so agree with you

[@TeamTasia418]

well she is a black girl she has to fight more in the industry then kelly and carrie lets be real guys but in the rnb will she is very successful

[@brewerrkjb]

+Sarah Perez No, the biggest disappointments are Rueben, Taylor (Who?) Hicks and Lee De Wyze, have they ever done anything with their careers?

[@nancyforoughi5517]

Carrie Underwood? Ugh...
