She described her time on the show as “amazing” and emphasized that her career is only just beginning.


Richardson also posted alongside season 23 finalist Breanna Nix, noting that placing third was still a great achievement and expressing excitement for what lies ahead.

The finale itself was a star-studded event, featuring guest appearances from Alicia Keys, Mötley CrĂĽe, Brad Paisley, En Vogue, and more. 


Harper, who ultimately won, shared her gratitude in an Instagram post, calling her Idol experience a “wild, beautiful journey” and thanking fans for their support. 


She promised to share upcoming tour dates soon, while Richardson and McCullough also left the competition with strong fan bases and momentum for their careers.
