Katy Perry cried on her last day as a judge on «American Idol». The «Teenage Dream» singer, 39, apparently had an emotional reaction during the finale of the 22nd season on Sunday, May 19. Celebrating her last day as a judge, Katy was seen crying during winner Abi Carter’s beautiful rendition of Billie Eilish’s song «What Was I Made For?». She also hugged her fellow judges Luke Bryan and Lionel Richie at that moment.
As Abi, 21, performed a touching cover of a Barbie movie hit, the camera switched to Katy, who had tears streaming down her face. Abi also seemed visibly moved at that moment. As confetti flew from the stage, the camera returned to the «California Girls» singer, who appeared to be crying even harder.
While Abi continued to sing, all three judges stood up in a show of support, and both Luke, 47, and Lionel, 74, could be seen approaching Katy. They embraced in a group hug. Later, the camera switched to a shot of Katy and Lionel embracing. It seemed like he was whispering something to her.
After the show, Katy opened up about her feelings and seemed excited for her next chapter. «I'm a little tired because I cried all night, but I’m just proud, so happy», - she told Entertainment Tonight. «Well, everyone’s sad. I’m not dying! I’ll just see you on tour».
Although Katy’s replacement for the next season has not been announced yet, she and other «American Idol» participants shared their thoughts on who they would like to see in her place at the judge’s table. In April, the pop star said she believed Jelly Roll would be a great choice for the show, after he appeared as a guest, chatting with E! News. «I believed everything he said. He could run for president, be my pastor, I could go back to church because of him. He could sell me anything», - she said
