It all leads up to a live reveal of the winner, who will be the first-ever American Idol champion announced off stage.
Take all that, plus the reveal of new songs by Katy Perry (“Daisies”) and Luke Bryan (“One Margarita”), and this is looking to be an absolutely packed American Idol finale.
One will celebrate their induction into the Top 5, and the other will be a previously recorded song that will serve as their hit single if selected the winner of Season 18.
Despite that, the Top 5 will perform two songs each.
