Personally, I think it would be great to see winner Just Sam again, if only because she was robbed of a proper celebration given the state the world was in during the last Idol finale.
If past seasons are any indicator, more names are on the way, possibly some of the competitors who competed during last season, which was postponed by COVID.
Given that the show is still dealing with some COVID issues in this latest season, the commentary from anyone from that crowd may be the most valuable to competitors yet.
