"I remember watching when Phillip Phillips won and he kind of broke down and the confetti and seeing his family — I was getting emotional watching it," he told Us Weekly. "And that’s what I think about — I think of my family. I think of my mom and my dad. It takes a lot to get me emotional but just thinking of that is what I think of. My parents’ faces, that would be what I’m thinking of."
With American Idol coming to an end after season 15, the finale pulled out all the stops with performances by Steven Tyler, Ricky Martin, Jamie Foxx, Pitbull, Fall Out Boy, New Kids on the Block, The Jacksons and more!
