David Cook Pictures: David Cook arrives on the red carpet at the 2011 "American Idol" finale held at Nokia Theatre L.A. Live on May 25, 2011 in Los Angeles, California.
Scotty McCreery won the 2011 "American Idol" finale over fellow finalist Lauren Alaina. He's the fourth male in a row to win the Fox singing competition, with 2007's Jordin Sparks the last female "Idol."
"I never in my wildest dreams," said McCreery, a 17-year-old with a strikingly deep, old-soul voice that contrasts with his youth. "I've got to thank the Lord first ... he got me here."
