JOHN FOSTER CAPTIVATES AMERICA WITH A HEARTFELT WORD ABOUT HIS GIRLFRIEND DURING AMERICAN IDOL LIVE SHOW
John Foster’s Emotional Reveal About His Girlfriend Stuns Fans During American Idol Live Show
Uncover the mystery girl behind the country singer’s biggest supporter.
On Sunday night, May 4, during the emotional Top 8 live episode of American Idol, the excitement was palpable not just because of the stellar performances, but also due to a surprising moment in John Foster’s personal life. After delivering a moving performance of Bonnie Raitt’s “Something to Talk About,” John sent shockwaves across Idol Nation with a simple but unexpected revelation — he has a girlfriend.
The crowd erupted in excitement, but it was judge Luke Bryan who pointed out the loud cheers coming from a group of girls behind the stage. That’s when John casually shared that the loudest cheers came from his girlfriend, cousin, and close friends — breaking hearts all over the country in the process. But who is the lucky girl cheering for one of the season’s fan favorites?
MEET BROOKLYN BOURQUE — JOHN FOSTER’S GIRLFRIEND
Though John Foster prefers to keep a low profile on social media, a bit of research reveals that the woman cheering him on every week is none other than Brooklyn Bourque.
While John’s Instagram remains focused on his music career, Brooklyn isn’t shy about expressing her love for him. After John’s emotional audition aired, she shared a heartfelt post, celebrating his progress:
“EEEKKK!!! He’s going to Hollywood!!!! SO proud and grateful to be by your side on this awesome journey. You amaze me every day and I am so lucky I get to love a cutie patootie like you.”
Brooklyn has been a constant presence throughout John’s rise on American Idol. She joined him in Hawaii for his Top 24 performance, where she posted:
“Hawaii episode comes on TONIGHT!! Don’t forget to vote for JF to put him in the TOP 20.”
WHEN DID JOHN FOSTER AND BROOKLYN START DATING?
While they’ve kept their relationship timeline fairly private, Brooklyn’s first Instagram photo with John was shared in May 2024, marking the earliest known post of them together. This suggests their relationship began around that time.
HOW DID JOHN AND BROOKLYN MEET?
This country love story seems to have started at Brusly High School in Louisiana, where both John and Brooklyn were students. Brooklyn, who graduated in May 2024, was a member of the school’s cheerleading team, bringing the same energy and enthusiasm to John’s Idol journey as she once did on the sidelines.

Their genuine connection, quiet strength, and mutual support are giving America something more to talk about — a love story just as sweet as his music.
