AleXa wins NBC’s ‘American Song Contest’ with her song “Wonderland”

Back in late March, singer AleXa represented her home state of Oklahoma on NBC‘s American Song Contest, and back then she was still in the preliminary rounds. However, over the course of the show, she has been steadily advancing through the contest into the finals. Well, just moments ago it was announced that she was the winner of the whole damn thing.

Honestly wasn’t that previously familiar with Eurovision Song Contest that this show was based on, but basically AleXa won with the song “Wonderland“, which was the same one previously covered.

I wasn’t exactly sure what the prize was, but it’s a bunch of things, apparently.

She gets a gorgeous trophy and we get to see AleXa on the Billboard Music Awards and a T-Mobile commercial. Plus, she’ll be immediately put into rotation on iHeartRadio stations! Plus a teary reprise! #AmericanSongContest

Hopefully it provides a springboard of sorts from her as I’ve always been impressed that she’s consistently been grinding since 2018.

Congrats!
