"You know, we love these kids, we love every aspect of their growth and all of this, but it's certainly devastating news when we hear about this..."

Social media users claimed the singer was blocking anyone who mentions the video.

The judges didn't think Danica Steakley was quite ready for the big time. Her dad's meltdown on air proved he disagreed!

Livingston, Louisiana native and season 17 American Idol winner, Laine Hardy, announced via social media that he has contracted the coronavirus.

The 19-year-old singer-songwriter from the Baton Rouge area is reportedly resting well with only mild symptoms.

At one point during the show, he jumbled his words, looked out of sorts and his eyes looked very strange.

The singer beat out Arthur Gunn and performed a lovely duet of "We Are the World" with judge Lionel Richie.

Jovin Webb was Louisiana's last hope to get into the top seven on American Idol this past Sunday.

The current champion put his shining spin on "Disney Night" with the rollicking "Life Is a Highway."

This past Sunday, two Louisiana contestants on American Idol were hoping to advance to the next round, but only one will remain on the show.

Last year, a Louisiana resident, Laine Hardy, won American Idol and this year, two Louisiana residents are in the top 20.

We are hoping that Destrehan's Faith Becnel, and Baton Rouge's' Jovin Webb will move on to the Top 10 next week
