Bella Emry took the stage with a stunning cover of a Morgan Wallen song when she auditioned for American Idol.

Emry, 22, a server and office admin from Bend, Oregon, had never performed in front of people. The aspiring singer was nervous to deliver her rendition of “I’m A Little Crazy” for judges Lionel Richie, Carrie Underwood and Luke Bryan during the Idol episode that aired on Monday evening (February 16); however, she caught their attention with her voice and storytelling. Wallen released “I’m A Little Crazy” on his fourth studio album, I’m The Problem, in May 2025. The 37-track project included the title track, “I Got Better,” “Love Somebody,” “Lies Lies Lies,” collaborations with Tate McRae, Eric Church, HARDY, ERNEST and Post Malone, and more. Watch Emry’s cover of “I’m A Little Crazy” below.
