Evvie McKinney | FOX
The first season of FOX’s “The Four: Battle For Stardom” concluded with a two-hour finale Thursday night.
That two-hour finale concluded with the revelation that Evvie McKinney had won this season’s competition. She will receive a record deal with Republic, support from the iHeartRadio “On The Verge” radio program and the opportunity to shape her career with panelists Meghan Trainor, Diddy and DJ Khaled.
McKinney’s performed three times in Thursday’s episode.
She — and fellow finalists Zhavia, Candice Boyd and Vincint Cannady — each opened the night with a performance. The crowd selected McKinney’s performance as its favorite, thus giving her the right to choose a finalist to challenge in a head-to-head showdown.
She challenged — and defeated (by judges’ decision) — Zhavia. Boyd subsequently defeated Cannady, thus setting up a showdown between McKinney and Boyd.
The judges named McKinney the winner.
