The event received donations from local businesses and organizations from the advertisements purchased for the evening's program, said Meredith McCauley, Arlington sophomore and traditions coordinator for the council. Old Navy provided the attire for nine contestants, and stylists and makeup artists from JC Penney and Mary Kay donated their time to the contestants.
"It was really chaotic putting it together," said Alison Marwah, El Paso sophomore and marketing coordinator for the council. "But I feel like I'm friends with the contestants now. We were in constant communication."
Supporters could also partake in "Adopt an Eagle Idol" to contribute to the production. Attendees of the program received fan signs to hold in the audience to cheer on their favorite contestants.
Keough jokingly bribed the audience before the show began in a slide show prepared by NTTV.
"If I win, I'll give the money to the audience," Keough said, though in the end it was her talent that the audience recognized.
