Abi Carter, a 21-year-old musician from Indio, California, won the popular vote to become the "American Idol" Season 22 champion during Sunday night's finale. 
Will Moseley, a 23-year-old musician from Hazelhurst, Georgia, and Jack Blocker, a 25-year-old graphic designer from Dallas, Texas, were the runners-up.
The who's who of the music industry was on hand to build up the suspense throughout the three-hour finale, which featured guest performers Jon Bon Jovi, 2004 "Idol" winner Fantasia Barrino, Jason Mraz, Wynonna Judd, Seal, New Kids on the Block and more.
Of course, there were also judges Lionel Richie, Katy Perry and Luke Bryan, who along with host Ryan Seacrest were mourning Perry's final episode of the musical competition show after six years and seven seasons.
When Abi was announced as the winner, she wasn't the only one drenched in her tears – Perry, whose favorite adjective for Abi this season was "angelic," was also shedding tears as Abi performed the Eilish song that launched her "Idol" career.
