The final three singers, Breanna Nix, John Foster and Jamal Roberts, duked it out for the title of Season 23 winner in the "American Idol" finale.

Jamal Roberts, a 27-year-old P.E. coach at Crestwood Elementary in Meridian, is the second Mississippian to win "American Idol."

Jamal Roberts is only the second Black man to win 'American Idol' in the show's history, 22 years after Ruben Studdard.

American Idol runner-up John Foster says he “ barely” caught a sneak peek at host Ryan Seacrest ‘s envelope before Jamal Roberts was announced as the winner of Season 23. Roberts, however, definitely did not know that he’d won until he’d heard his name.

Jessica Simpson makes a surprise return to singing live on TV, performing on the 'American Idol' finale as Jamal Roberts is crowned the winner of season 23.

Alongside bringing out Eminem at Post Malone's Detroit tour concert, Nashville native Jelly Roll also performed on "American Idol" season finale.
