'American Idol' crowns season 11 winner May 24th 2012, 02:07  LOS ANGELES –  Bluesy guitar man Phillip Phillips is the new "American Idol," defeating teenage songbird Jessica Sanchez. Phillips, a 21-year-old pawn shop worker from Leesburg, Ga., received more viewer votes than 16-year-old Sanchez of Chula Vista, Calif. Phillips' victory Wednesday extended the "American Idol" winning streak for males to five consecutive seasons. The last female to win was 17-year-old Jordin Sparks in 2007. During the three-song showdown Tuesday between Phillips and Sanchez, the show's judges praised his performance across the board. Sanchez was faulted for a lackluster rendition of her final song, "Change Nothing." Phillips, who was a top vote-getter throughout the season, gets a recording contract along with bragging rights.
