Hannah Harper is crowned the winner of ABC’s “American Idol” Season 24 following the show’s live, three-hour season finale. Multiple outlets report that Harper is declared the season winner as viewers vote in real time during the broadcast. The finale features the remaining top finalists from the season. Jordan McCullough and Keyla Richardson are identified as the other top contestants, finishing in the runner-up positions alongside Harper. The New York Post describes the episode as star-studded, while Deadline reports on the finale’s live format and the voting that leads to Harper’s victory. Across the two sources, the central outcome is consistent: Harper wins Season 24, with McCullough and Richardson as the other top finishers. The reporting also confirms the placement of the top three performers for the final episode, but does not add further details beyond the results of the finale.
