Isaiah Moore Leaves ‘American Idol’ Judges in Tears After Revealing He Cancelled Honeymoon to Audition

Isaiah Moore left 'American Idol' judges in tears on Sunday (March 16), revealing he skipped his honeymoon to audition and dedicating song to brother.

But on Sunday night’s episode, 22-year-old Isaiah Moore of Oneonta, AL had all three judges crying in their pink Poppi cups with a life story that was as emotional as the song he chose to cover. Moore told the panel about his rough upbringing, which included his mother’s struggles with drug use and multiple trips to jail, resulting in him and his brother being raised by their grandparents. With a smile on his face, Moore said his mother – who was at the audition with him, along wit his maw-maw and paw-paw — is now three-years sober, though he choked up when he noted that his younger brother could not make it because of his current struggles.
