American Idol Recap




The season finale for American Idol was last night, and Lee DeWyze was crowned the winner.

The show featured several segments in tribute to Simon Cowell. They also brought many of the winners and runners-up, a great nod to Simon's reign on Idol.

Crystal Bowersox performed with Alanis Morissette. (Side note: "Would she go down with you to the theater" Really? That's the replacement lyrics they chose? Really??) DeWyze performed with Chicago, and several other former contestants also gave performances with famous musicians. One of the most memorable performances was Bret Michaels and Casey Jones James singing Every Rose Has Its Thorn. The Poison frontman has had a slew of serious health problems of late, including a brain hemorrhage and a "warning stroke", so it was great to see him happy and on stage.
