American singer, Phillip Phillips has an estimated net worth of $3.5 million. Hails from Leesburg, Georgia, Phillips is the winner of the 11th season of American Idol. After the Top 13 performance night, Phillips was taken to a doctor for possible kidney stones. Phillips became the winner after a record breaking total vote count of 132 million in the finale on May 23, 2012 against Jessica Sanchez. Phillips worked at his family’s pawn shop before being selected to be an American Idol finalist. Phillips’ Dad Donnie Phillips had reportedly been considering selling the family pawn shop in Albany, Georgia for a while now, but the singer’s victory in the FOX singing competition clinched it: There’s now a big “For Sale” sign in front of the pawn shop. On the show, his performances were distinguished by the southern flavor and country western style of many of his song choices, although he demonstrated a diverse body of influences as well – these include artists like Stevie Wonder and genres like soul and jazz in addition to his country roots. At the end of the 11th season of American Idol, as per the usual practice, Phillips was placed up against Jessica Sanchez, and viewers were asked to vote for their favorite.
