What a stunning performance by Emmy Russell and Wynonna Judd! The late country music icon Loretta Lynn’s granddaughter, Emmy, is a 25-year-old vocalist.

Before being ousted from this season of American Idol, she placed in the top five. In a video posted to Instagram, Emmy said, “That was God’s plan, even though I didn’t make the top three.”

Funny thing is, I had a strong feeling before I was eliminated that God was telling me, ‘Emmy, you’re not going to be selected by America,

but I chose you.’ I know I’m picked, therefore there was no sensation of “Why wasn’t I chosen?” “Therefore, in my opinion, the purpose of coming here is to prove that you can succeed by being who you are.

Don’t flee from confronting difficult situations or rejection of suffering.” During the American Idol Grand Finale, Emmy had the opportunity to perform a touching rendition of her grandmother’s song, “Coal Miner’s Daughter,” alongside Wynonna Judd.

Wynonna sings the second stanza after Emmy sings the first, and Wynonna makes a kind gesture by holding Emmy’s hand.

“I see Loretta’s face and hear her voice in her grandchild. How proud Loretta would be! You are a national treasure, Loretta. RIP. a single YouTube commenter.

“Gorgeous voice, Emmy…Wynonna, you continue to have the strongest, most incredible voice in country music, and your grandmother is grinning happily from heaven! writes anything on the internet for someone else.

The two begin with “Coal Miner’s Daughter” and continue with Wynonna Judd’s “No One Else on Earth.” Watching the entire concert was simply amazing!
