Bobby Bones was without a doubt my favorite mentor on #americanidol. He’s one person who has definitely believed in me since the first day he met me. When we first met during top 24 I didn’t have much confidence, and he could tell. I couldn’t even make proper eye contact while talking to him. But somehow he still saw something in me that I didn’t even see in myself. After meeting for the first time, he pulled me aside and said “you’re my favorite” and I was just like wait what..I mean seriously just that one comment made me believe that I might just be good enough. So yeah, I definitely credit Bobby Bones as a big part of the reason I won this show. Thanks for giving me confidence & always being so relatable and down to earth @mrbobbybones. Hope to hang with you again soon.
