FoxNews: 'American Idol' Finale: Jordin Reigned Supreme

Excerpts:

Blake did his beat boxed version of "You Give Love a Bad Name," running around the stage with the mike stand and in general dancing better than any other guy in the history of the show. Then Jordin shrieked her way through a Christina Aguilera song and Blake sang a pretty Maroon 5 track.

While the competition cranked into high gear when Jordin broke into a stunningly beautiful version of Martina McBride's "Broken Wing," it appeared that things were going to go completely downhill when Ryan introduced us to the winners of the songwriting competition, and Blake launched right into their number, a Disney-esque ditty called "This is My Now."

While he sounded nice and looked as comfortable as ever, there wasn't a lot that could be done with the song.

At least that's what we thought until Jordin had her turn -- and completely blew it out of the park. And just in case there were people who weren't swayed by her dulcet tones, almost inconceivably likeable personality or the fact that she's starting to look more like Rosario Dawson all the time, the girl actually started crying as she sang. How touching was it? Well, even resident cynic Kathy Griffin seemed moved.
