First Look: James, Leah, Whitney, Sharaya Compete In “The Four” Season Finale

The second season of “The Four” comes to a close Thursday night.

Last week, James Graham, Leah Jenea, Whitney Reign and Sharaya J earned their places in the season finale of “The Four: Battle For Stardom.”

That season finale airs Thursday, August 2.

By the end of the two-hour broadcast, only one will be left standing. That winner will receive a recording contract — and future support from the iHeartRadio “On The Verge” program.

Enthusiasm is already high for the episode: each of the past five episodes has posted a viewership increase. FOX is nonetheless hoping to generate even more excitement, and it accordingly shared some photos from the taping. Those follow.
