Skylar Laine

The 'Idol' judges have seen plenty of country singers audition and make their way into the pool of finalists throughout the years. Have you ever wondered what happened to some of them?

Carrie and Scotty rose to country royalty with the help of the reality show, but what about the others?

Skylar Laine's boyfriend during her time on 'American Idol' has pleaded guilty to a federal hate crime. Joseph Dominick, 21, was charged with targeting and injuring African Americans by throwing beer bottles and shooting metal ball bearings at them.

Skylar Laine got the boot from ‘American Idol’ last week, but she’s not letting anything get in the way of her country music dreams. Rumor has it that country music’s newest talent has signed a record deal and that she’s moving to Music City to launch her career.
