American Idol season 21 was recently crowned a winner. While the season saw tremendous talent, only one could walk away with the prize. The singer who came on top was someone who had been a fan-favorite since day one. William Tongi was declared the winner of the show on Sunday, May 21, 2023, at 8 pm ET on ABC.
Tongi was among the three finalists, including Megan Danielle and Colin Stough. However, there was one contestant among the top five that fans felt deserved the crown. We Ani, who recently released a new song after her American Idol loss, was eliminated during the May 14 episode of the series. Fans felt that Ani was the true winner of the show and took to social media platforms to express their opinions.
Episodes of American Idol season 21 can be streamed on FuboTV and DirecTV Stream.
Fans believe that We Ani should have been the winner of American Idol season 21
Post the finale of American Idol season 21, while several fans took to social media to celebrate Tongi’s victory, a huge section of fans expressed their displeasure with We Ani’s elimination. They stated that they felt that she should have been this season’s winner and that she has an amazing voice.
Fans further added that the fact that she didn’t win season 21 makes them feel that people on the show are deaf, and they added that she was the ultimate pick, although they’re not surprised that America didn’t pick her. They added that she’ll have an amazing career if she continues to pursue it and will see a lot of success.
They further commented on her duet with Jazmine Sullivan and stated that she was eating up the singer during Bust Your Windows. They stated that the “gag of the season” was that she didn’t even make it to the finale. Fans stated that she was better than Jazmine and should have been the winner. They further claimed that the show is “rigged.”
They spoke of her performance in the finale episode and added that it should have been her winning performance since she “slayed it.”
One person wrote that she was the winner of the show “hands down,” and the fact that she didn’t make it to the top 3 says a lot about American Idol’s credibility. They compared We Ani to Daughtry, who appeared in season 6, and added that the same happened to him. They wished the season 21 contestant the same success as the former contestant.
We Ani releases a new single called 175 Lbs
The American Idol season 21 contestant recently took to TikTok to share her experience recording her new single, 175 Lbs. During the video, she said that it felt so “dope” to be able to record her own song. She added that she'd worked really hard on it and that it took a lot of time and effort.
We Ani described the song as “relinquishing any heavy weight that people may be carrying. 175 pounds is a lot of weight. 175 pounds is a person. It's a feeling. It’s a mentality.”
The finale episode of American Idol season 21 can be streamed on FuboTV and DirecTV Stream.
