Hannah Harper has some exciting shows lined up following her American Idol win.
The American Idol Season 24 finale aired on Monday night, May 11, and by the end of the three-hour episode, a new champion was officially crowned.
After a night filled with special guest performances, including the Idol judges joining together for a three-part harmony of “Deep River Woman,” the Top 3 contestants learned their fate in the competition.
Keyla Richardson, Jordan McCullough, and Hannah Harper were the three finalists.
Halfway through the episode, it was revealed that Keyla finished in third place. Then, as the show neared its end, Jordan and Hannah stood together on stage with host Ryan Seacrest for the big reveal.
He opened an envelope, announcing Hannah as the newest American Idol winner.
Fresh off her big victory, Hannah has no plans to slow down anytime soon.
She may have spent weeks proving she had what it takes to become the next American Idol, but she still has plenty more ahead.
For starters, she confirmed that she plans to go on tour.
During a post-win interview, Hannah revealed that her schedule is already packed through the fall of this year.
“I knew that I was gonna hit the ground running as soon as I left here,” Hannah tells On The Red Carpet. “So we’re gonna take two weeks to just chill for a little bit.”
She continued, “And then almost every weekend until like September, October, we’re gonna be touring…the String Cheese tour!”
For those who may not know, the “String Cheese” tour gets its name from Hannah’s original song that she performed during her Idol audition.
The song quickly went viral after its emotional lyrics resonated with mothers across the country.
