Season 21 of “American Idol” crowned its champion Sunday with a thrilling, star-studded finale.

The three finalists were Iam Tongi, Megan Danielle and Colin Stough.

Tongi, an 18-year-old high school student from Kahuku, Hawaii, was declared the winner.

The teen’s heartbreaking story of losing his father, Rodney, moved many viewers this season.

Tongi collapsed in the finale during a duet with singer James Blunt on “Monsters.” The young singer wiped away tears as he and Blunt sang, “I’m not your son and you’re not my father/We’re just two adults saying goodbye.”

Blunt is one of several stars, including Pit Bull, Ellie Goulding, Lil Jon, Kylie Minogue, REO Speedwagon and TLC, who appear in the three-hour finale.

Tongi won a recording contract as part of his “American Idol” prize. After the confetti dropped to declare the winner, he performed Spawnbreezie’s “Don’t Let Go,” and his contestants flocked to congratulate him.
