American Idol winner Scott McCreery brought his rich, handsome baritone to the Tonight Show with Jay Leno last night. McCreery sang "I Love You This Big," his first big country hit since winning the singing competition last month. It's easy to see why so many fans voted for him on Idol – he's a natural performer who knows how to balanced understated singing with moments of crowd-pleasing theatricality, like when he stretches his arms out wide as if he's trying to give the whole world a hug.
