Carrie Returns to Idol

Carrie will perform on the show, which marks the season finale, but has not announced her song selection. She is excited to return to the program that first made her famous. “As far as the finale goes, it’s so wonderful that they let me come back and let me be a part of what started my career and also be a part of someone else’s career,” she says. Carrie has no predictions on which of the final two contestants, Jordin Sparks or Blake Lewis, will become the new American Idol champion. “I can’t really pick one,” Carrie says. “It’s all up to America. I’ll be watching along with everybody else.”
