Love, etc.: Crystal Bowersox breaks up with cute boyfriend before "Idol" finals

(Michael Becker/Fox)

Split: American Idol runner-up Crystal Bowersox, 24, and that cute boyfriend they kept showing in the audience (turns out he's Tony Kusian, 26). The breakup -- mutual, she said -- came Tuesday, hours before her final competitive performance, after he wearied of the Hollywood scene, she announced Thursday on Ryan Seacrest's radio show. "He went home. He wasn't cool with the lifestyle," she said. "He's a small-town guy ..... I'm a small-town girl, but I want this more than anything..... Some people can hang with it and some can't I'm fine with it. He'll be all right."
