The 17-year-old from Garner, NC, beat out 16-year-old Lauren Alaina to become the youngest 'American Idol' winner ever. He's also the fourth-consecutive male to win the reality-competition series, following David Cook, Kris Allen and Lee DeWyze. (The last female to win 'American Idol' was Jordin Sparks, in 2007.)

We’re now down to the top 6, as ‘American Idol’s’ wild card pick, Stefano Langone — who made it very far in the competition after nearly being eliminated a handful of times — was eliminated from competition on Thursday.
