— After the U.S. cast its votes,  Lee DeWyze wins the title of American Idol 2010, defeating a crowd-favorite, Crystal Bowersox.

Lee was announced the winner of “Idol” amidst star-studded performances by Christina Aguilera, Janet Jackson, Joe Cocker, the remaining Bee Gees and Alice Cooper.

It seemed like Bowersox was destined to become the American Idol, but she now has the Jennifer Hudson position as a runner-up — though Simon Cowell  won’t be around to apologize this time if she wins a Oscar or Grammy.

While Cowell retains a financial connection in AI, he reportedly has other shows he might work with.
