Scotty McCreery
This dreamboat country singer won season 10 of Idol and since then has achieved quite a bit. He won the Best New Artist award at the ACM Awards in 2012 and also received the Breakthrough Video of the Year Award. In 2015 he released his third album but parted ways with his record company.

Chris Daughtry
We don’t care that Daughtry came in fourth of season five, he’s a winner to us, the man is incredibly talented and has gone on to achieve great things despite his (in mocking voice) fourth place finish. His band’s debut album became the fastest selling debut rock album in the history of Nielsen Soundscan, as it sold more than a million copies after just five weeks of release. He’s actually the third most successful Idol contestant in terms of record sales, behind only Kelly Clarkson and Carrie Underwood. At the 50th Grammy Awards, the band (Daughtry) was nominated for Best Rock Song for the single “It’s Not Over.”
