From the moment Hannah Harper auditioned for American Idol with an original song about motherhood, she resonated with judges Luke Bryan, Carrie Underwood, and Lionel Richie, as well as viewers across the country, because of her voice, vulnerability, songwriting, and artistic ability. That ended up taking her all the way through the competition until she was named the winner during the May 11 finale.
“I’ve been a fan. I’ve been a stan for Hannah since the beginning,” Underwood told TV Insider and a small group of media outlets after the show. “There’s just something about her that’s so relatable, obviously, and I feel like, in the end, that’s why people voted for her. They’re just like, ‘I see a bit of myself in her,’ and you just want to root for her.”
