Kayden Stephenson Inspires “Idol” Judges With Cystic Fibrosis Battle, Stellar Voice

VIDEO

Kayden Stephenson wouldn’t let a terminal illness stop him from auditioning on Thursday’s “American Idol.”

The contestant — who, because of his cystic fibrosis, looks much younger than his 16 years — revealed he’s only expected to live until age 35, and said he wanted to fulfill his singing dreams while he still could.

And after his adorable performance of Stevie Wonder’s “I Wish,” Stephenson is definitely on his way.
