VIDEO: Jena Irene Talks Paramore, Christina Grimmie, Voting 'No' on 'Reality Check'

Jena Irene made American Idol history with her run on Season 13. In making it to the finale, she became only the second Wild Card contestant ever to do so, after Season 2 finalist Clay Aiken. In short, Jena Irene had an absolutely stellar run on the series, given that she was someone who almost didn't audition in the first place.

In this interview with Reality Check host Michael Slezak, Jena Irene discusses her journey on the show, from performing with Paramore, covering artists like Elvis Presley and Zedd, the success of "Creep," and the controversy surrounding her decision to vote "No" on Top 5 results week, a choice that ended up sending Sam Woolf home. She also discusses Christina Grimmie's performance of "Can't Help Falling In Love" on The Voice, before receiving Slezak's annual bouquet of flowers for his traditional "favorite contestant of the season" honors. It's a great interview and it's packed with clips from the show, so check it out! You can watch the full video below via TVLine.com:
