American Idol finalist has come a long way from yearbook photo

Written by Evan Blackwell, CJE

American Idol will crown its latest winner tonight in the season finale showdown between finalists Lee DeWyze and Crystal Bowersox.

DeWyze, the 24-year old from Chicago, has become a star on this year’s edition of the popular talent show. Which is all probably fun to watch for those who remember this clean-cut dude from the yearbook photos at Prospect High School in Mount Prospect, Ill.

Looks like there has been quite a bit of growing up since DeWyze’s sophomore years at Prospect High.
