Luke loves being a part of the talent competition show, and one of the reasons is because he is able to help people realize their dreams. “Facilitating the American dream of people that are chasing their dream and chasing the stars, that’s the neatest thing about American Idol,” the Georgia native says. “When a kid walks through the door, you never know if they’re gonna change our lives, change their lives and change some people watching at home, change their lives too. That’s the special part about American Idol – a kid can walk in and for the rest of their life, they can go follow their dreams and do what they love — sing music.”
