The Boot

There's never a dull moment at a Luke Bryan show and his recent stop in Grand Rapids, Mich. certainly followed suit.

Colin Stough has his mother to thank for the positive changes his life has seen over the last year. His mom, Nara, encouraged the then 18-year-old to audition for American Idol. The small-town Mississippi native blew judges away with his audition of Lynyrd Skynyrd’s “Simple Man,” leaving judge Luke Bryan exclaiming, “That’s what American Idol is about, right there!” Stough made it all the way to the season 21 finale night before viewers eliminated him in third place. Far from a setback, though, the “horse-loving, motorcycle-riding 19-year-old from Gattman, Mississippi” is thriving. And soon he’ ll even be a married man.
