Carrie Underwood is making a splash in her first season as an American Idol judge, and it’s already been an emotional ride! During the season premiere, she was brought to tears by Breanna Nix, a stay-at-home mom who boldly performed Underwood’s own song “Jesus, Take the Wheel” with her young son adorably napping in her lap. Meanwhile, other contestants are delivering heartwarming and unforgettable moments from Thunderstorm Artis’ touching original song about love and perseverance to Abi Bowen braving her stage fright by singing with her back to the judges.
Fans also witnessed the quirkiest audition yet with Carsen Webb, who had judges engaging in a hilarious “spoon-off” before belting out an inspiring performance. This season promises plenty of talent, tears, and fun — and viewers are already hooked!
