Jessica Sanchez received fewer votes than Phillip Phillips and finished as the season 11 runner-up. 

Just don't expect her to complain about it.

"I'm feeling relieved," said Jessica about an hour after losing the Idol title.  "I'm so glad I get to be myself and impress anyone."

Jessica also said the highlight of her night was singing with Jennifer Holiday.

"The first time I saw her I wanted to cry so bad," said Jessica.  "So when she started singing I had a mini heart attack."
