American Idol Winners Announced Tonight- American Idol is one of America’s favorite shows, and tonight we found out who the winner is. The American Idol will gain a lot of popularity and join the ranks of popular artists such as Carrie Underwood, Kelly Clarkson, and Adam Lambert.

Lee DeWyze, 24, won the coveted title and with it a recording contract after millions of Americans cast their votes for the guitarist who likes the blues, even though the judges felt that Bowersox did better in final presentation on Tuesday.

Lee DeWyze has a cool demeanor about him. He’s quiet – yet he’s got some amazing talent. We could see him in an Indie band or even as a solo performer.
