CandiceFan12 Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 (edited) Well ten years ago we've had 5 consecutive WGWG winners from David Cook to Phillip Phillips and season 12 had a female winner with Candice Glover. Â Then we had Chayce winning last season. Is there any way a girl can win Season 20? Edited February 23, 2022 by CandiceFan12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carrie_On Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 It’s going to depend on the contestants and whether or not they can convince people to vote for them. If we get an endearing female contestant, like Maddie, they can get enough support to win. It’s obviously not enough to just have a big voice, so even if we do get an amazing girl or POC male, they can get beaten out by a WGWG if he’s more charming, as we saw last season with Grace and Willie. Grace was incredible but too serious IMO and Willie was no more versatile than Chayce, so it wasn’t a shock to see the WGWG win. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember saying to myself after last season, "If Grace cant win, idk what its going to take for a female to win again." No matter how many high notes you can do, how pretty you are, or how long you can sustain a belt for, its not going to be enough. If a female is going to win, the producers are going to have to give her the "girl next door", american sweetheart type of edit.

A girl will never win Idol again, though I think the last girl standing will finish as the runner-up, if the audience has it their way with the voting.

KelseyW Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 It depends. Honestly sick of folks auditioning with their guitars attached to their hips... Like SING ACCAPELLA YOU PANSY. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mytake1 Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 The bigger question - why would someone even want to win Idol these days - and be stuck with the Idol contract that goes nowhere.  Look at the fate of the last 8 winners - Candice Glover, Caleb Johnson, Nick Fradiani, Trent Harmon, Maddie Poppe, Laine Hardy, Just Sam, Chayce Beckham.  Compared to non winners Jax, Daniel Seavey, Gabby Barrett, Lauren Spencer Smith, Benson Boone who have become the breakouts of their season. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep. Sadly unless you want TikTok fame... Or are a country star in the making. They don't want you.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still way too soon to say about Chayce. But I don’t expect any different from you. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarmenSandiego Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 After seeing girls as talented as Kenedi and Lady K., I'm more confident that a girl will win this season and not a WGWG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dai Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 (edited) We’ll see if she can deliver live, but Kenedi screams winner, so I’m going to say no. Edited March 8, 2022 by Daillon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bk1234 Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 (edited) I don’t think I’ve ever had a favorite win Idol since Kris Allen, so Kenedi winning would be nice. Edited March 8, 2022 by Bk1234 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I don't go looking up records like that that's strange. Way to make it public fan knowledge... lol I'm glad he's sober and in a better position in life now though.

When you say "This audience" so far the reboot has been 50-50 as far as male and female winners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
