The judges make their “final judgments” in choosing the top 24 American idols for 2023.
It’s the battle for the survival of the fittest during the episodes “Showstoppers: The Final Judgment” of american idol, which looks in two parts. The first night was tonight with the judges Lionel Richie, Katy PerryAnd Luke Bryan choose the first group of artists to enter the Top 24.
“This will be the most intense part of the process,” says Lionel. “We’re trying to find magic 24.”
And Katy adds, “Any questions we have about the contestants are answered in Showstoppers.”
“Showstoppers” is the first time the contestants have performed with a group on a large stage, which gave the judges the opportunity to evaluate them not only on their voice, but also on their stage presence.
At this point, there are 55 contestants remaining, so just over half will be sent home before the competition returns to Aulani, a Disney Resort & Spa in Ko Olina, Hawaii, where the soulful singer-songwriter and R&B Stone Allen will mentor the Idol hopefuls who will face the first American vote of the season.

An interesting note about tonight’s “Showstoppers” was the fact that there were two vocals. First of all, Pjae And Malik heard had to sing a cappella for the judges who had not yet decided which one would pass. They executed Billie Eilish“All I wanted”, and in a surprise move the judges decided to eliminate an as-yet-unknown contestant and put them both through.
SO Paige Anne And Megan Danielle also had to sing a carol to a Adele song, but this verdict will not be given until tomorrow evening. They chose “Easy on Me”.
The other surprise of the night was that the judges eliminated one of their platinum ticket choices when they sentKaylin Hedges House. At 15, they felt Kaylin didn’t have enough experience yet and urged her to keep singing to get where she needs to be.
