JESSICA , YOU ARE NOT ONLY VERY TALENTED BUT ALSO VERY CHARMING AND SMART. YOUR ANSWERS WERE RIGHT TO THE POINT. PHILIP, YOU ARE SUCH A GENTLEMAN. VERY LOVABLE GUY. WE LOVE HOW YOU TREAT JESS. THANK YOU P2! CONGRATULATIONS FOR WINNING AI. BOTH OF YOU WILL BE SUCCESSFUL IN LIFE.

[@theayeclar]

i love you two!!! phillip looks like he's very humble.. i hope you guys will end up together..

[@mariecesful]

both are winners in their own style of music.... love them both... it's been so great that they end up into the final two... congratulations to Philip as well as to Jessica...

[@justinbeer1081]

After the final show down,im sure Jessica is the winner for American idol.mabuhay

[@joanrain2313]

Jessica is so beautiful with such a great personality. Intelligent, and grounded. Lover her!

[@jerensamandari-rad3044]

Jessica is, undoubtedly, the true American idol of all seasons, period! ❤

[@coldsparks2722]

0:45 When Phillip was like 'Oh man, oh man, Oh man!' Haha.. Oh my God, tell me I'm not the only one watching this in Jan 2016!

[@heyitsme937]

This is insanely adorable. Makes me forget about the whole competition and just appreciate the way she's so smitten and how he treats her like a little sis. Haha. So cute. I know it's weird and I know he has a gf but I want them to end up together someday.

[@TrollinMothaFucka]

For all of you that thought that Phillip winning AI was wrong, i disagree. We all know that Jessica is talented and I know she is going to make it without winning.So i think Phillip deserves it more.

[@brendalyne1]

Jessica you are a sweet girl as Phil complemented you for being that way. Phil is so humble too. CONGRATULATIONS TO BOTH OF YOU!!! for being the TOP 2. This is just the beginning of your career and Wishing YOU BOTH THE BEST OF LUCK!!

[@justinbeer1081]

God bless you Jessica,

[@marydiorlyn7928]

I love them both because they are humble;)) they are blessed;)

[@pagom252]

They are both such nice and down to earth! I am so happy for both of them. :)

[@jimerezel]

Congratulations to PP.I'm still mending my broken heart because it only beats for Jessica. I love you Jay whatever happens. I know you're gonna be BIG despite you being runner up. God Bless to both of them.

[@evajaneramos251]

I LOVE 0:27 - 0:59 LOL!!! Jessica was funny and Phillip too! It's so candid!

[@SuperS800]

Its like you're saying Phillip needed to win in order to make it in the industry but Jessica will make it win or lose. Well...in a way you're right. With Jessica's powerful voice she'll definitely make it while Phillip's style need a little more exposure in order to be recognized. His style is laid back while Jessica's is more "out there''. Its a good balance. I'm glad Phillip won, he needs it. Lots of luck to them both!!!!

[@smgudan]

both such sweet humble people

[@TediusZanarukando]

Phillip Phillips was the show winner and got a silver platter in the form of "Home", met with over-the-top praise by the judges. "Home" managed to sell 4 million copies. His debut album "The World From the Side of the Moon" sold a little over a million copies. He has been doing tours. On the other hand, Jessica Sanchez came in second place. She was given a Cool-Whip Lite in the form of "Change Nothing", written by Jaden Michaels. She was met with strong criticism by the judges, with Jennifer Lopez giving the most helpful comment. She was a lost cause on the Billboard and U.S. iTunes Charts. That is only due to lack of promotion. Her debut album "Me, You & The Music" got a limited production run in the U.S., but it got rave reviews and rendered a profit. At the end of the day, based on the fine print and social media, the real winner is Jessica Sanchez. The 132 million vote figure was due to the Filipino-American community voting. The powers that be acted accordingly and rigged the results in Phillip's favor. Phillip has 711,000 followers on Twitter. His net worth as of 2014 is $1 million. Jessica has over 1,418,000 as of January 10, 2015. Her net worth as of 2014 is $2 million.

[@SrtaaEstela]

3:01 "Ah,to what,what,I'm sorry,I'm sorry" Oh Phillip,he was in his own world HAHAH, I love him. I love Jessica too,she's sweet =]

[@viviansicat5733]

Check out how they look at each other on 2:51. So sweet!

[@jamesdond1]

She is such a personality for such a young person.... She will be a big star... bigger than Phil-Phil...

[@immatruthteller]

Jessica and Philip has a good chemistry they might develop each other .. hehehe.. they should make a duet in the future..

[@Gustava10]

0:33 - 0:59 best part! :D They are soo CUTE!! :D Definitely the two deserved finalist this year! :)

[@BEVERLYJOYCE1]

THE JUDGES CROWNED PHILLIP LAST NIGHT ! BUT SOMETHING TELLS ME THE WORLD VOTED FOR JESS !!!!

[@danjamen]

@brendalyne, I understand what you are saying and yes, she is Filipino/Mexican American. It's her blood, her heritage. I myself am a Filipino American and I am not saying that I am not proud of my heritage, it's just not something I put out there immediately when I meet others. For jessica's situation, being in the spotlight, her fans music should be the first priority and not her heritage. I know in America it is Rare to see an Asian American in the spotlight but for me, I would treat it as if

[@Justine361587]

lol am I the only one who caught him saying something at 5:24 and smiling to hide it xD

[@viviansicat5733]

Yes they do look good together, don't they? I hope too that they'll end up together, they are perfect for each other. .

[@alyssarozario4102]

I will see you on tour guys

[@SrtaaEstela]

3:32 Leonard's poster 'SARCASM" HAHAH

[@2ne1thebest01]

SHES SUPER SWEET!!!!! IM BLUSHING!!!! geez

[@racqueltabaniag4260]

I love it.

[@KingTsuyiyasandar89]

i think Jessica care to him i want to say Jessica " u have to care urself" because i really worry for u i want u to be a winner i'm prayer for u Jessica everyday

[@ferraravxoxo]

i love them both and i hate to see all the fighting going on about how jessica should have won and blah blah blah i mean why cant we be happy for both

[@deborahmartin4788]

as im looking at this video they really looked cute togather..I lowkey think jessica liked phillip..

[@ilovelovecarlospena]

Phillip Phillips is AMAZING!!!!

[@viviansicat5733]

and He's even more smitten with her... They look good together and they're a good match. Phillip will have to wait 2 more years though.

[@BriandeGraciaRMT]

This is why I gave up on watching American Idol a long time ago. I only watched this season for Jessica because she is truly talented and deserves to win this without a doubt. I hope America wakes up this year and starts voting for the real talent. This is American Idol, not ManHunt.

[@mhats26]

0:38 --- so perfect :)

[@TheAn1311]

i see why they let phil win,, jess is real talent and she soon succeeds.

[@JoSepHRavEr23]

correct me if im wrong but i think philip have a crush with jessica just saying!! :)

[@iam1greatUFO]

I agree with you! :)

[@342gaga]

I want them to be couple!:D

[@viviansicat5733]

heyitsme, Phillip is equally smitten, can't you see the way he stares at Jessica with lovelorn eyes? He is so protective of Jessica too right from the start of the top 13 I saw how Phillip and Heejun were so protective of Jessica. They were the 3's company of season 11.

[@loulogrey3310]

i don't see any feelings between them...i guess jessica feeling for PP is like a big brother....and PP feels to jessica is like her sister...i respect both of them.

[@tetelyeye143]

they are so cute together,.!!!!!! no offense to phillip's girl.. they're just cutiee..!!!!:)))))

[@Frenchygirlxo14]

big fan of both of them but i gota say i love Philjess hehe;P but in 0:46 he kept sayin "Im an old man" and repeated it a bunch of times and looked at Jessica. idk but it made me feel like hes saying to her and everyone like it sucks im much older than you so we kinda can't be a couple. i mean hes in his 20s and really thats not old at all. haha any comment? idc about what people say i think they'd make a cute couple :P

[@beybhiedime4756]

0:42 did jessica say "ano" hehe. :) Congrats jessica!

[@tsitae101]

Jess is so cute and funny!

[@Roleenepierre890]

Im shipping them!haha,,I love PHILJESS!

[@samanthanicole6704]

That also happened in Season 5... Hicks and McPhee sang different songs as "winner's song..." In Season 7 too... That's just fair, I think...

[@ilhamgumanti9489]

Love this video.. They're cute {}

[@LaylaG19]

AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW SO FREAKIN CUTE. i totally ship them!

[@Frenchygirlxo14]

LOL

[@sonskieeinsonskiee3810]

she's so cute.. on this interview....

[@BriandeGraciaRMT]

"As the last female standing, Sanchez has to contend with the fanatical Idolfemale voting bloc that tends to favor the cute guys. Her only hope against this fan base: the presence of Phillips’ actual girlfriend, who has been noticeably absent from television screens (as well as the Leesburg, Ga., rocker’s homecoming video package), may be a turn-off." This pisses me off so much because it's true.

[@dragonlady064]

Ha ha. My daughter and Iwere also smitten by PPs looks until he became her competitor and i hated him for the last 3 weeks. Now it's all good. I know Jessica will be huge. Hmm. They do look good together. Wait for her Phil okay. 2 more years. LOL

[@sonelf4ever]

why bother watch this if you dont even like one of them..

[@infinitelyderp]

I must admit Phillip did better than Jessica but she's still a great singer! Congrats Phillip~ ♥

[@Susie08]

I am relaxed...but to be clear statutory rape laws vary by state, California for example defines statutory rape being between someone who is 18 and the other person being 3 years or younger

[@ryancute22]

You're not an OLD man Phillip, you'd know that when you reach 25+ =P

[@Dreammaster695]

there cute together

[@fanatical16]

well you shouldn't expect her to openly say heartedly to pilipinoes WHY??? because she didn't grew up in philippines!! not unlike charice she grew up in philippines!! ok so stop being so sensitive about it!! grow up !!! jst talk about the music geesshh!!!

[@brendalyne1]

To: rostabaguio:What is the undesirable or grave mistake that she has done for you to comment that "She isn't ashamed of" ...TELL me. What is the connection with her being the top 2 in A Idol for not having been to the Philippines? Do you have anything to do in your life better than what your negative words.? or you are just jealous because she is now DISCOVERED with a great talent in singing with a great voice in Hollywood? Why don't you try too? Go for an Audition for Am Idol too to be known.

[@Lubbylove89]

I stopped watching back when Taylor Hicks beat Katherine McPhee...ridiculous. I FINALLY watched again this season because of Jessica. Now I'm NEVER watching this show again. It's unfortunate that people can't vote for the best singer. This show is ridiculous.

[@feelnlucky48]

no I heard him say it's so hard to hear.....lol

[@honpas6656]

@Susie08....Chill out, they will not be together he is in a long term, happy relationship that he intends to stay in, this is according to Phillip Phillips himself...BTW It's usually under 16 when it is considered statutory rape not 18.

[@Anna7]

im proud to be mexican lol

[@amClyn5]

Of course she'd feel uncomfortable. She's American, and she's competing on AMERICAN idol.. Why the heck would the interviewer ask such a stupid question.. it's just plain stupid and ignorant. She needed the votes of the Americans to win, and always telling Jessica that she has many Filipino fans or asking her to visit the Philippines, did not helped her at all. The Americans were probably thinking "oh, she's Filipino, not American" I really think that had an effect on the result and why she lost

[@brendalyne1]

dangamen: The Filipino journalists or any Filipino should not be embarassed if Jay was the runner up. I am sure they expected her to be the TOP but as the votes count result into making her the 2nd & I am sure their reactions result was negative feeling sad & disappointed. Yes, she is an American naturalized citizen but she is still half blooded FILIPINO no matter where she goes. I am a FIL-AM. too but in my bloodstream & in anatomy I am still a FILIPINO. The Am, Citizenship is just in papers.

[@HIgirl808]

hmmm...then why are you watching this? support your favorite, but please don't bash the other contestants:)

[@patriciamarzo3289]

i hate american idol now because it's like for boys only (discrimination?) .. i don't hate american idol because pp wins but i was kinda disappointed because Jessica didn't win..

[@Vixsufil]

What lmao ur calling it discrimination just because a man one ur ass sounds dumb af

[@abeille1217]

phillip's voice makes me quiver. not gonna lie.

[@Pwnoy]

She said "I don't know." Pay attention, fob.

[@hihiwitchi]

"......like a sixteen year-old with someone like phillip (then grabbed his arm and phillip's face)... just funny..... PHIL's OLD..... No offense fans..... i just find it funny....

[@TheUnknownchaos1]

Philip Phillips is humble..... i like him.... and Jessica Sanchez parang plastik kung sumagot....

[@hydras2danewbunch]

Jessica is good, she's epic, and she resurrected the long-silenced voices of Michael Jackson and Whitney Houston. But she's Asian. so she lost.

[@Susie08]

I'm sorry but when one of the people is under 18, 5 years is a big difference, in most states it would be considered statutory rape ;-)

[@ryancute22]

it's the trend thing, it's a very negative trend thing.

[@HIgirl808]

you don't need to be rude and inconsiderate, it's an honest mistake

[@SaGeForReal]

philipp has kidney stones.

[@joannaroque8794]

is he sick??? PHILLIP PHILLIPS?

[@Skyclub12]

It was fun watching these two answering questions and it's obviously they're both having fun as well until that lady directed them to move on. Kinda feel like these two are just puppets of the show. Weird!

[@helaya007]

jessica will be more successful than phillip in real life

[@ezpg3d860]

Guess what that didn't happen lol

[@07boxingfan]

american idol is always fixed

[@johnnavarro309]

YAAAA!!!.. I ANDERSTAND, THE RACISM IT´S IMPORTANT TO AMERICAN PEOPLE...JESSICA WAS THE BEST. THIS BOY NOT SING NOTHING. I´M MUSICIAN I KNOW ABOUT MUSIC... INCREDIBLE AND ANHONEST CHOISE!!!.

[@ThankGodImYoung]

Ignorant comment is ignorant.

[@daemonspade3823]

-.- Can you people stop fighting?

[@tz1404]

@raydel12151 have some decency. And can you keep your opinions to yourself, please.

[@ryancute22]

Too embarassed to say thank you to your Filipino fans? to embarassed to tell it in front of Phillip?

[@otanix]

Kaunting pnoy prayd ay ok lang. Marami, hmmm, tolerable. Pero sangkatutak na pnoy prayd hir & der, nakakainis na. Para tayong patetik na agaw eksena, nanlilimos ng karangalan, mapapel at walang ibang maipagmalaki kundi sumabit sa kasikatan ni charice, ni pakyaw, at syempre, 50% pnoy na si JS. (oo, nagtagalog ako para hindi maintindihan ng ibang lahi ang sinasabi ko dahil pandagdag pa itong komento kong to sa ga-bagyong bugso ng ol-abawt-pnoy na mga komento dito sa youtube. MGA SANDAKOT NA EPAL!)

[@dakkilbutuk]

annoying ang tanung nung babae fans sa pinas, buti nalng naintersep sya ng isang tanung ng isang pang reporter.. buti nlng hehehe ^^

[@samanthanicole6704]

Jessica fans keep on making excuses...
