Phillip phillips and jessica sanchez Phillip Phillips was crowned the season 11 "American Idol" champion on Wednesday night's final show. Phillip Phillips, a bluesy Georgia guitar man, defeated teenager Jessica Sanchez in record viewer voting. He was the fifth male "Idol" winner in a row. Phillips retained his humble, self-effacing demeanor to the end, and beyond. "I have no idea why I won, man," he said in his backstage dressing room. " I guess some people liked the music that I was doing. I'm just lucky. I was just doing my thing each week." He received the winning share of the record-high 132 million votes cast after Tuesday's final showdown with high school student Sanchez, 16, of Chula Vista, Calif. The last female to win, and the last non-white, was Jordin Sparks in 2007.
