John is one of our favorite Idols. He's a modern-day Rat Packer and would have fit right in with Frank, Dean & Sammy. Here he is fronting the Beantown Swing Orchestra.

It was a shock when Chris Daughtry was sent home in fourth place on season 5. The producers thought he was going to win. Still, Chris is one of the most successful Idols in the series' history, rocking the Billboard charts with his band, Daughtry. Chris co-wrote "It's Not Over" with three other people, including fellow season 5 finalist Ace Young.
