Apparently, that’s more information than even the judges had on Sunday.
“He literally came to cheer,“Luke Bryansaid of DeFranco during the Q&A.
And he’s like, ‘Hell yeah!'”
And in the end, fans were still able to enjoy a contestant duet with Crow.
“It’s a live, three-hour show.
And, quite honestly, we’ve had a very colorful season.
Curveballs galore,“Katy Perrysaid during the post-show Q&A.
“But Graham DeFranco?
I mean, killed it.
Sang so well, and I was so glad he was there.”
