Stevens may have finished eighth in Idol’s ninth season but she’s currently starring as Karma Ashcroft in the MTV series Faking It. Let’s not forget that at just age 13, she performed at Carnegie Hall!

Sanjaya

I think everyone remembers Sanjaya, he was a finalist on the sixth season and he gained a lot of national attention on the series, as he controversially advanced to seventh place with public votes, although he received poor comments by the show’s judges, particularly Simon Cowell. He made a lot of TV appearances following Idol but in 2012, he ended up working in a bar because he didn’t spend his money appropriately at a young age.
