American Idol contestant Casey Abrams took his performance of the Maroon 5 hit “Harder to Breathe” to a new level last night, surprising the audience, judges, and viewers at home as he leaned in closely to serenade and then steal a kiss from host Jennifer Lopez. If you ask me, I thought it was awkward and a little bit gross, but J. Lo handled it with charm and grace.

Watch it go down after the jump!!
