Scotty McCreery & Jimmie Allen Met On American Idol

Did you know that Scotty McCreery’s relationship with Jimmie Allen goes all the way back to 2010 when the two met during Season 10 of American Idol?

Scotty said the two forged a friendship when they were both chosen out of thousands to continue on the reality show competition.

“He was in the Top 40 with me, like the green mile days of Idol. He was in Vegas when we were Top 60 so he went through all that stuff with us. There was like 115,000 folks that auditioned that year, so I mean we were right there, but I really think everybody’s got their thing on if they make it. He didn’t need that show. He was a guy that was gonna get there and he was gonna make it happen, and I’d see him in Nashville and he was always just meeting folks and getting his music out there and doing it the right way and I was always rooting for him. I knew it’d happen for him eventually cause he’s just one of those talented guys, nice guys and everybody’s rooting for him.”
