American Idol Contestants Crowned in Emotional Finale

American Idol Contestants Shine in Emotional Season Finale

Los Angeles, CA – May 12, 2025 – The American Idol season 23 finale delivered unforgettable performances, shocking twists, and a tearful crowning moment as three talented singers battled for the title.

After weeks of intense competition, the top three finalists—country crooner Jake Morrison, soulful powerhouse Lila Chen, and rock sensation Diego Ramirez—took the stage for one last showdown. Judges Katy Perry, Lionel Richie, and Luke Bryan praised the trio for their growth throughout the season, with Perry calling it 'the toughest finale in years.'

The night featured show-stopping duets, including Morrison performing with Keith Urban, Chen teaming up with Fantasia Barrino, and Ramirez sharing the stage with Adam Lambert. But the biggest surprise came when last year’s winner, pop sensation Mia Thompson, returned to debut her new single, 'Rising Again,' alongside the finalists.

After a record-breaking 50 million votes, host Ryan Seacrest announced Jake Morrison as the winner. The 22-year-old from Nashville broke down in tears as he hugged his family, saying, 'This is a dream I’ve had since I was a kid singing in my grandma’s kitchen. Thank you to everyone who believed in me.'

Morrison wins a recording contract and a nationwide tour, while runner-up Lila Chen has already been approached by multiple producers. As the confetti fell, fans took to social media, declaring this season one of the best in Idol history.

Stay tuned for updates on what’s next for these rising stars!
