Two weeks after the season 23 finale of “American Idol,” finalists Gabby Samone and Kolbi Jordan reunited in Nashville with winner Jamal Roberts, one of their besties on the show. On the evening of June 3, 2025, Roberts hosted a nearly hour-long Facebook Live from a nail salon as the trio got pedicures, drawing thousands of views and comments.

The 27-year-old soul singer insisted the ladies “dragged” him outside for a bit of pampering, joking to fans, “My feet did need a little TLC — I’ve been running for Jesus a long time!”

Samone, Jordan, and Roberts grew close on “American Idol,” but live far apart. Samone is from Baltimore, Jordan is from Tulsa, and Roberts hails from Meridian, Mississippi. The three reunited for laughs — and a little pampering — ahead of the epic “American Idol” reunion concert they’ll be part of on June 4, featuring a dozen recent alums, including season 23 runner-up John Foster and third-place finisher Breanna Nix.

Fans Love Seeing Jamal Roberts, Gabby Samone, & Kolbi Jordan Together Again

Fans loved seeing the trio of friends back together, with over 14,000 people leaving comments on Roberts’ live feed as he, Samone, and Jordan laughed, teased each other, and sang along with the radio throughout their pedicures at a Nashville nail salon.

“i love how no one was bitter and yall stayed friends,” one person wrote and another chimed in, “Y’all friends for life 💖”

Someone else commented, “I love yall together yall need a reality show”

The three singers grew close during the many months they spent working on “American Idol,” from Hollywood Week to performing in Hawaii to the live shows in Los Angeles. It was clearly not their first time getting their feet done together, either, as Roberts patiently waited for his pedicurist, joking that he and Jordan are “always last whenever we go to a nail salon.”
