So how close are the stars of American Idol?
Our Kimi Robinson found out.
When you're not filming, what's that like?
Do you like to keep in contact?
Are you like, please respect my boundaries?
Well, what I love the most.
We're artists, so we're constantly touring.
We're constantly moving. Luke will say something about me on
stage or say something about Katie on stage.
And of course my phone blows up and goes,
Did you hear what Luke said about you last night?
And vice versa. So we stay in touch because this
is the family and Ryan and I are concierge.
Concierge for the group. Well,
that's true when you're in a big city and you
can actually Lionel sometimes too.
I'm like, where do I go in Paris?
He's international. We cover the next day.
So we got a group chain and to find me,
you know, I'm always like,
where's the best spot. So I'm always hitting these three
up.
But Ryan and I, we got to hit a couple
Georgia Bulldog games together in the offseason and so you
know,
we're, hey, we, we don't have any parameters When we
leave the set,
we like to check up on everybody.
I was gonna say that.
I mean, the fact is we're friends and not I
think I'm saying this really because I love it.
We're not thin skinned and the ego factor is out.
So we can actually say things to each other and
not take it personal because we're trying to get to
the best for that contestant.
That's right. I I think the only person that talks
to Lionel like I do is his daughter.
Exactly, exactly.
