Spears is fully confident that her sole remaining contestant will be crowned the season 2 champ. "She reminds me a lot of myself when I was younger because she is really shy," the pop princess said of Sonenclar. "She is a very humble girl, which is really surprising considering how gifted she is, and I'm really proud to be in her life."
