10 Reasons Megan Danielle Will Win American Idol Season 21 (The Evidence)
Image
American Idol season 21 has featured some of the most extraordinary talent in the show's history, and Megan Danielle will most likely win the whole competition. Megan, a 21-year-old server from Douglasville, Georgia, had one of the most memorable auditions. While she sang Lauren Daigle's "You Say" for the judges, Lionel Richie, Katy Perry, and Luke Bryan, Lauren surprised her and joined her in singing the song. Lauren's mother Morgan, an American Idol alum, was in an untelevised group performance with Lauren during the Las Vegas round of season 11.

Throughout American Idol season 21, Megan has been consistently excellent. She advanced to the finale on Disney Night, along with Colin Stough and Iam Tongi. Although all three of these finalists are superb and any one of them would make a perfect American Idol, Megan will most likely win the competition. There are ten reasons why this will happen.

10 Reasons Colin Stough Will Win American Idol Season 21 (The Proof)
Image
American Idol season 21 Top 3 finalist Colin Stough is an extraordinary singer and person, and there's good reasons why he'll most likely win the competition. Colin is an 18-year-old Hvac technician from a little town outside of Amory, Mississippi. He auditioned for American Idol when his mom signed him up, knowing that he would never do it himself. He sang "Simple Man" by Lynyrd Skynyrd, impressing the judges with his incredible vocals and guitar playing.

During Colin's American Idol season 21 audition, Luke said that he was what American Idol was about, and Katy gushed that he had the magic in him. Luke said that the performance was, "raw, real, humble." The judges invited Colin's mom into the audition room, and awarded him with his golden ticket to Hollywood, after they all voted "yes." Colin has since made it to the American Idol Top 3, and will now compete with Megan Danielle and Iam Tongi for the win.

‘American Idol’: Will another country singer upset the presumed front-runner like Laine Hardy in Season 17?
Image
Could an upset be brewing on Season 21 of “American Idol”? All year fans have been forecasting Iam Tongi would take home the top prize, but he may not be the sure bet we’ve assumed. This season closely resembles a similar lineup up finalists from Season 17 when 18-year old country crooner Laine Hardy took down fan favorite Alejandro Aranda, who, like Iam, had become a viral sensation since his first audition.

This time around it’s 18-year old Mississippi native Colin Stough who has progressively grown his fanbase each week, delivering honky-tonk renditions of some of music’s most popular tunes. Like Laine, he was barely a blip on viewers’ radar in early rounds, but as judges Luke Bryan, Katy Perry and Lionel Richie have pointed out, his star continues to rise.
