Watch Alabama’s Ruben Studdard duet with Jordin Sparks on 'American Idol' TV special.
The idea was to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the reality TV series with splashy performances by former winners and other high-profile contestants. Studdard certainly qualifies in that regard, as the enormously popular champ of Season Two in 2003.
As you’ll see in the clip, former “Idol” judges Randy Jackson and Paula Abdul were on hand to introduce the duo on Monday’s episode, and reminisce about their years on the show. After Studdard and Sparks performed, current “Idol” judge Lionel Richie recalled about his encounter with Studdard as a guest judge on the series in Season Two.
Producers dug up a 2003 clip of Richie on “Idol,” evaluating Studdard’s performance in the Top 8. Studdard sang “Kiss and Say Goodbye” by The Manhattans” on the program, earning lavish kudos.
