Congratulations to Willie Spence for making it into the Top 24 on American Idol!

Willie is a Douglas, Georgia native, who now lives in Dunwoody.

The judges had to narrow down from almost 200 people who made it to Hollywood.  There were back-to-back elimination nights on the show to cut it down to the Top 24.

Willie's cover of Beyoncé's "I Was Here" earned him a spot in the coveted Top 24.

Another Georgia native from Dekalb County, Xavier Washington, was unfortunately eliminated.
