Taylor Hicks is crowned the latest American Idol in the US most watched tv show just a while ago.
The 29-year-old Taylor Hicks edged Katharine McPhee, 22, to win the competition decided by fans vote all across America. By winning the talent contest, Hicks has won himself a record contract.
Taylor Hicks was an unseeming winner at the very beginning of the show, AI judge Simon Cowell even predicted that Hicks didn’t have a chance of advancing to the final 12.
Hicks defied all odds and made Simon ate his own words, and with some steady performance.. Hicks advanced to the finale and totally outcasted Katharine in the show finale with a great performance.
In the end, a deserving winner, congrats to Taylor Hicks.
As for Katharine Mcphee, I can see that she will get a record contract as well, making it to the final 2 is something worth celebrating.
