"One of them even told me that they were 3 when they watched me on idol...that would make her 18...I tried not to feel too old," Guarini wrote. "On the other hand, I'm happy any 18 year old knows who I am with so many distractions in the world! I'm a very lucky (young) man, and so blessed to be a part of television and pop culture history!"

Guarini also snapped a pic with fellow returning performers Sparks and Locke.

There has been speculation that Sparks might be planning a duet with Harry Connick Jr.
