He is only there to help make sure only the best of the best, the absolute cream of the crop, gets to the end. Yes, that includes Emmy Russell.

“I think if we start sending people through just because they have a connection with any form of music or if there’s somebody famous,” Luke Bryan stated. He went on to say, “If we start sending people through that don’t seem like they’re worthy of it, I think that America will call us out on that.”

“To be able to say that your grandmother is Loretta Lynn, that certainly gets the room’s attention,” Luke Bryan admitted. Even though that is true, he also said “Obviously, Emmy’s got the goods.”
