Kellie Pickler Returns to American Idol 3 Years After Husband’s Death | E! News

Kellie Pickler came back to the ‘American Idol’ stage to duet with Hannah Harper on May 4, making a rare public appearance three years after her husband Kyle Jacobs’ death. The duo sang "A Broken Wing" by Martina McBride, paying homage to the year Kellie competed on the show to fit in with the “Class of 2006” theme of the night. "I’m an antique ‘Idol’ dustin’ off," she said after the performance, telling Hannah, "Being able to share the stage with you has been such a blessing." The “Best Days of Your Life” singer, who placed sixth during her time on ‘Idol,’ wasn’t the only season five alum to return to the show. Former finalists Elliott Yamin, Paris Bennett, Bucky Covington and winner Taylor Hicks came back to do their own duets with the current competitors. If that wasn’t exciting enough, OG judges Randy Jackson and Paula Abdul also made their ‘Idol’ comebacks, serving as guest judges during the episode.
