Maine native Julia Gagnon talked all about how she was very grateful for the experiences that "American Idol" brought her, but she doesn't want to live in the shadows of the show forever.
Julia finished the national competition in the Top 7, which is unbelievable. And although she didn't win 'American Idol', it sounds like that was what she wanted.
Julia addressed the harsh hate comments on her Instagram posts with another member of 'American Idol', Abi Carter, who she seemingly has become good friends with.
Hailing from Cumberland, Maine, 22 year-old Julia Gagnon unfortunately did not advance into the Top 5 of 'American Idol' as of last night. But is it really that unfortunate?
