ABC era male: Iam Tongi/Alejandro Aranda (TIE)

I have many particulars here. Allison Iraheta was my main during Kris' season of Idol. Haley hasn't been topped out of FOX era. For me personally.

 

ABC Idol has been interesting and that I've had more female faves than male. Not equal amounts.

 

So my main is a guy this year.
