John Foster Tell That Angel I Love Her may be his debut single, but it carries the weight of deep emotion and a promising future. Even though Foster finished as runner-up on American Idol Season 23, the Louisiana teen isn’t slowing down. Just hours after the May 18 finale, he’s already charging ahead — with music, passion, and plans that stretch far beyond the Idol stage.
The heartfelt single, John Foster Tell That Angel I Love Her, was penned in memory of his late friend, Maggie Dunn, who tragically lost her life in a car accident. “I wrote it all on my own,” Foster shared. “It really gives people a window into who I am as a songwriter and as a person.” He’s determined to promote the song fully, and it’s just the beginning of what he hopes will be a long musical career. “I’m already itching to get back in the studio. I absolutely love it in there.”
John Foster Tell That Angel I Love Her Opens Doors
Back in Louisiana, anticipation is building for a local celebration, complete with a concert and parade — a hometown hero’s welcome. While Foster teases a possible appearance on Dancing With the Stars — “It’s definitely not a no,” he jokes — his immediate plan is simple: heading home. “I’ve really missed my dog,” he grins.
Even as host Ryan Seacrest announced Jamal Roberts as the winner, Foster stayed gracious and positive. “This whole experience has been unbelievable. Out of 120,000 people? I’m proud to be in the Top 2,” he said, praising the show’s remarkable talent this season.
John Foster Tell That Angel I Love Her Marks a New Chapter
Third-place finalist Breanna Nix, a stay-at-home mom with a powerhouse voice, shared a similar sense of peace. Unlike Foster, Nix was eliminated earlier in the finale but felt spiritually aligned with the outcome. “I had a feeling in my gut it was going to happen, and I was at peace with that.”
She even predicted Roberts would win the moment she heard him sing in Hollywood Week. “I walked right up to him and said, ‘You’re going to win American Idol.’ I got it on video!” she recalled, laughing after Roberts confirmed he remembered the moment.
Nix and Foster both recognize that winning isn’t everything. As history shows with artists like Jennifer Hudson and Clay Aiken, success doesn’t always mean taking the crown. “My debut single ‘Higher’ just dropped,” said Nix. “So many doors have opened — I’m ready to step through.”
She hopes to return to Idol someday in a mentorship role. “Whether it’s as a judge, a mentor — anything — I’ll always hold this show close to my heart.”
And for future contestants, Foster had one final message: “Be confident in who you are. Don’t see failure as final. This is just the beginning.”
