See who won and who left the judges in tears as 'American Idol' crowns its Season 21 winner -- was it Colin Stough, Iam Tongi, or Megan Danielle? (via toofab)
Every single time, these hometown visits get us. There's something that never gets old in seeing these young innocents get to experience a hint of that superstar life, and feel the love of home on a scale like they've never imagined. It was definitely the waterworks again as Megan touched base with her late grandfather, even getting a bear made from his clothing.
When we first met Iam, he told us he was"priced out of paradise," having had to leave his hometown for the mainland, so it was especially touching that his old high school gave him an honorary diploma as he would have graduated from there this year had he not moved. Iam got to perform with Jack Johnson, while Colin was surprised by Lynyrd Skynyrd's Rickey Medlocke, who showed up as he was talking about his love of 'Simple Man" … before joining him on stage to perform it.
