'American Idol' contestant and Luke Bryan have awkward tiff, mocks judge’s country twang
Fox News
"American Idol" judge Luke Bryan had an awkward encounter with contestant Madaí ChaKell, who ultimately mocked the country singer during her final performance.
To understand the palpable awkwardness of Sunday's episode, you would have needed to see ChaKell's original audition. During the first round, she and Bryan first clashed over her eccentric performance of Katy Perry's "I Kissed A Girl," which she performed in multiple genres.

Before she started singing, ChaKell hinted that she could imitate accents and change her tone of voice.
