'American Idol' - Complete List of Every Winner from the Past 22 Seasons!

It’s hard to believe American Idol first premiered more than two decades ago!

The fan-favorite singing competition series premiered on June 11, 2002 on FOX with Simon Cowell, Paula Abdul, and Randy Jackson as the original three judges with host Ryan Seacrest.

After 15 seasons, Idol ended on Fox and following a two year hiatus, the show was revived on ABC in 2018 with Ryan returning as host along with new judges Katy Perry, Lionel Richie, and Luke Bryan.

Over it’s past 22 seasons, Idol has launched the careers of some of the biggest names in the music industry.

Now that Katy has been replaced as a judge by a former winner for the upcoming 23rd season, we’re taking a look back at all 22 stars that have won American Idol over the years!

Season 23 of American Idol is expected to premiere in early 2025.
