Emmy, the granddaughter of music legend Loretta Lynn, auditioned for American Idol season 22 with an original song “Skinny” about her experience with eating disorders. Her performance secured her a golden ticket from judges Lionel Richie, Katy Perry, and Luke Bryan, who were surprised to learn about her famous grandmother. Emmy’s mother, Patsy Lynn Russell, a member of the country duo The Lynns, also joined her backstage to show support. Patsy emphasized that Emmy wanted to pursue her own path in music rather than living in her grandmother’s shadow. Katy Perry praised Emmy’s songwriting skills, comparing her to her grandmother and calling her an “A+ songwriter.” Despite making it to the Top 5 as a finalist, Emmy did not win the season. Her audition showcased her talent and unique voice, proving that she is carving out her own musical legacy.
