00:00:01Tonight, it's the conclusion of Hollywood Week, Music City Takeover.
00:00:08With the biggest cut in Idol history ahead of us, the bar has been set at an all-time high.
00:00:14I just, I'm capable of more.
00:00:16The top-notch talent continues to take the stage in hopes of becoming part of the top 30.
00:00:24He may win.
00:00:25I tried to do the best that I could.
00:00:27It's almost like she's given up.
00:00:35This is American Idol.
00:00:42After leaving it all on the stage,
00:00:48early standouts, Brayden,
00:00:51Chloe,
00:00:56Jake
00:00:57and Chris
00:01:05are about to get their results.
00:01:09All of you have done amazing work.
00:01:14Having said that,
00:01:17will the following people step forward?
00:01:19Jake
00:01:24Brianna
00:01:28Brayden
00:01:31Chris
00:01:37and Chloe
00:01:44this is something we are charged with doing, so
00:01:49front row
00:01:52you should be very proud of how far you've come.
00:01:57but for now, your journey
00:02:02it's not over yet.
00:02:05You're going through to the next round.
00:02:08Back row, thank you so much for your talent.
00:02:14So five more hopefuls can celebrate in the all-new Golden Room.
00:02:19Holy crap, how did I just do that?
00:02:23Where they'll join the others who survived the judges' first cuts.
00:02:27But in here, all they can do is wait until the end of the round,
00:02:30when the judges review all the performances in order to pare it down to this season's top 30.
00:02:36It would be tough to go home tonight.
00:02:39I don't want this to end, and I also don't want to be done.
00:02:42I want to keep singing.
00:02:44But how would the pressure land on 19-year-old Jesse Finlay?
00:02:50It is insane to be here at Hollywood Week, you know, after my audition with how well it went.
00:02:56Now you're in the stars
00:02:58And six feet's never found so far
00:03:01Every time it's the light
00:03:03We just haven't had voices like yours coming through those doors.
00:03:08I've always known that I can sing, but to get that level of validation and praise,
00:03:14it was an insane feeling.
00:03:16I'm going to be singing Love in the Dark by Adele.
00:03:19When I was younger and when I watched American Idol,
00:03:21Love in the Dark was one of those songs that I was like,
00:03:24I want to sing that on this show one day.
00:03:25I do feel a little bit of pressure.
00:03:29The audition was just in front of the three judges,
00:03:32And now it's in front of a thousand people.
00:03:35So the stakes are definitely higher.
00:03:49Take your eyes off of me, so I can be far too ashamed to do it with you watching me.
00:04:06Please stay where you are.
00:04:11Don't come any closer.
00:04:16Wow.
00:04:16Don't try to change my mind.
00:04:20I'm being cruel to be kind.
00:04:25I can't love you in the dark.
00:04:33It feels like we're oceans apart.
00:04:44There's so much space between us.
00:04:48Baby, we're already defeated.
00:04:53Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
00:04:58Everything changed me.
00:05:02We're not the only ones.
00:05:05I don't regret a thing.
00:05:07Every word I've said, you know I'll always mean.
00:05:12It is the world to me that you are in my life.
00:05:16I want to live and not survive.
00:05:28That's why I can't love you in the dark.
00:05:38I want to live and not survive.
00:05:47Get out of here.
00:05:49Go!
00:05:55Go!
00:05:57Go!
00:05:58Go!
00:05:59Go!
00:06:02Go!
00:06:02Thanks, everyone.
00:06:08There's so many things I wanted to say that I was trying to
00:06:10kick you out of the room because I'm so jealous of you.
00:06:13But your first note, Keri started drawing hearts everywhere.
00:06:18No kidding!
00:06:19She's Devin, and what a pro-dynamic of singing.
00:06:23And you are so deserving of this time in your life right now
00:06:27to be discovered on this platform and i'm so excited to see your future thank you thank you
00:06:38while jesse waits for his result the spotlight now belongs to his fellow hopefuls
00:06:44including 29 year old singer songwriter kindle inskeep usually when i take the stage it takes
00:06:50a couple songs for me to get comfortable so it's such a challenge this week because you only have
00:06:55one shot to really be authentic to who you are i grew up in indianapolis indiana my mom

00:10:15That voice you got, oh my God, I love her.
00:10:17And she's comfortable.
00:10:18She's so comfortable.
00:10:21I can... I'm gonna cry because...
00:10:25I'm gonna cry because I just, like, was so nervous going on.
00:10:30I'm very happy with the way that that just went.
00:10:34Now it's time for Kendall and Jessie to see if they've done enough
00:10:38to survive the first round of cuts.
00:10:41Would the following people please step forward?
00:10:45Jessie.
00:10:47Kendall.

00:11:03Tonight has just been the best night of my life.
00:11:06I'm so proud of you, man.
00:11:09I just can't believe it.
00:11:10I'm so excited. I am so excited.
00:11:13And I'm so grateful that this just happened right now.
00:11:20Tonight, Hollywood Week Music City Takeover comes to a close.
00:11:25Music City, what's up Nashville?
00:11:27It'll be anything but easy to get there.
00:11:30Everyone's fighting for their lives in here.
00:11:32I'm just not sure that was the right song.
00:11:33Bring it on! I love it!
00:11:36Your booze are feeding me.
00:11:38Stay tuned to see more of your favorites.
00:11:41A voice that will become so recognizable in years to come.
00:11:45If you were thinking about winning, just keep doing that.
00:11:48And by the end of the night, your top 30 will be revealed.
00:11:52We got more bloodshed coming.
00:11:54We have some sing-offs.
00:12:01Carrie, how is Hollywood Week in Music City going?
00:12:04Hollywood Week in Music City is exciting and it's drama and it's stressful.
00:12:09It's very difficult because we got to get rid of so many wonderful kids.
00:12:13But I'm telling you, we're finding stars.
00:12:16Stars.
00:12:17Are you guys ready?
00:12:18Everyone out here is mind-blowing.
00:12:20So my nerves are definitely, definitely up now.
00:12:24I never would have thought I'd be right here ever.
00:12:28It's just kind of a dream that I don't realize that I'm living.
00:12:30This is a huge opportunity for me.
00:12:32Coming to the stage, here's Cutter Bradley!
00:12:36I've moved away from home to do this dream.
00:12:38Kind of left everything behind.
00:12:40And so I want to stay really bad.
00:12:50I woke up in my booze this morning.
00:12:54I fell asleep in my booze last night.
00:12:58I had a feeling that I'd run out of romance.
00:13:03Well, girl, I couldn't have been more around.
00:13:09I woke up in my booze this morning.
00:13:13I fell asleep in my booze last night.
00:13:17And I knew I wouldn't have to take the time putting them back on when I'm sober.
00:13:22Yeah, I knew you'd be pissed off over me.
00:13:24And I'd just be hung over.
00:13:26No!
00:13:28And I didn't need to take my dunk.
00:13:31And I woke up in my booze this morning.
00:13:41Thank you, thank you.
00:13:42I feel like you've got, like, a solid voice.
00:13:45I feel like you've got a big range.
00:13:47You were like a lion, like, pacing back and forth.
00:13:50Like, getting ready to, like, bust out of the cage.
00:13:53Easy, easy, easy.
00:13:54It was good, it was easy.
00:13:55Slow down, slow down, slow down.
00:13:56It was good, it was good.
00:13:59Thank you all.
00:14:02This microphone is revealing a lot of singers now.
00:14:10So happy to be here.
00:14:11My name is Julian Kalel Almanzan.
00:14:13I'm from El Paso, Texas.
00:14:15I'm going to be singing, I'm going to be singing, um,
00:14:17I Can't Make You Love Me by Bonnie Raitt.
00:14:19Good song.
00:14:19And I want to be the next American Idol because I want to show that your story,
00:14:24your pain can be used to be your greatest power.
00:14:27Absolutely.
00:14:32Well, I feel really, really lucky to be here in Hollywood Week.
00:14:36I'm still processing even being here.
00:14:39Welcome back.
00:14:41Last year, I wasn't able to experience this round because of my mental health.
00:14:47You were born enough.
00:14:50I feel proud of myself for making it here.
00:14:54I've done a lot of growing, a lot of learning.
00:14:56And so this year, I'm definitely feeling much more well-prepared and confident.
00:15:02But I'm always nervous.
00:15:04I mean, why wouldn't you be nervous in Hollywood Week?
00:15:08Up until this point, I've only performed my own songs.
00:15:11Tell me how you're thinking about this first cover for us.
00:15:15I'm really pushing myself with this one.
00:15:16It takes a different kind of connection to bring out emotion for a song that you're covering.
00:15:24It demands more of me, so the pressure's on.
00:15:29Pretty nerve-wracking just thinking about it, honestly.
00:15:31But I just thought, you know, I'd regret it if I showed up to Hollywood Week and I didn't push
00:15:35myself.
00:15:36Turn down the lights.
00:15:41Turn down the bed.
00:15:44Turn down these voices inside my head.
00:15:51Turn down the bed.
00:15:53Turn down the bed.
00:15:53Lay down with me.
00:15:56Tell me no lies.
00:15:59Tell me no lies.
00:16:00Just hold me close.
00:16:04Don't patronize.
00:16:08Don't patronize.
00:16:09Don't patronize.
00:16:11Don't patronize me.
00:16:15Cause I can make you love me if you don't
00:16:22And you can make your heart feel
00:16:28Something in love
00:16:31Here in the dark
00:16:34These final hours
00:16:39I will lay down my heart
00:16:42And I'll feel the power
00:16:46But you won't
00:16:49No, you won't
00:16:52Cause I can make you love me
00:17:01If you don't
00:17:05If you don't
00:17:09If you don't
00:17:21Thank you so much
00:17:22Have a happy, solid
00:17:23Oh, good, good, good, good, good
00:17:31Thank you
00:17:36Gotta keep it together up here
00:17:38My favorite part about that is when you hit your first note, the crowd screams, you smile, and your smile
00:17:45was so big you almost couldn't sing the next line
00:17:50We feel very big things for you in the future and that was the first of many great experiences for
00:17:57you and we're just glad we get to watch
00:18:14I feel like every time I go on stage I still struggle with that self-doubt and I just get
00:18:21proven wrong every single time and it's really starting to feel like a blessing and I'm not ready to go
00:18:26home, not at all
00:18:27Why am I so nervous?
00:18:30I know, right?
00:18:31I know, right?
00:18:56Not easy
00:18:57I know, right?
00:18:58Thank you so much
00:18:59Thank you so much
00:18:59Thank you so much
00:18:59Thank you so much
00:19:02Thank you so much
00:19:03Thank you so much
00:19:03Welcome back to American Idol, where Professor Carrie's Hollywood Week lessons have some students turning against her
00:19:10I'm not sure if that was the right song
00:19:14They just like to boo me
00:19:16There were notes that were just like awesome and then I was hearing some that I was like what's happening
00:19:23right now?
00:19:23So I'm kind of like I'm it
00:19:27I heard it too. I heard it too. I'm just not sure that was the right song
00:19:31She only won this she knows
00:19:33You're not included in the discussion
00:19:39But Mr. Bryan seems to have been given a whole pass
00:19:42It was a little shaky to start
00:19:44I think make sure you do songs that really showcase that grit that you have
00:19:48Thank you so much
00:19:49Thank you
00:19:52Why don't they boo you?
00:19:54I know I'm trying to get booed
00:19:55Ask them
00:19:56You're not gonna boo him?
00:19:58You're not gonna boo Luke?
00:20:04I'm getting used to it
00:20:06I'm getting used to it
00:20:08Hoping to get on Carrie's good side by living up to his name
00:20:12Okay, here it comes
00:20:14Is 24 year old True the Star
00:20:19My first audition, I saw the ballot
00:20:21So I really didn't get a chance to show my personality as much as I wanted to
00:20:25And how are you working on it?
00:20:28Just being myself
00:20:29The song I will be singing is Love and Happiness by Al Green
00:20:32It shows my personality and how I like to move around and perform
00:20:37It's more about being true yourself to me 100%
00:20:40Well go have some fun, be you and let's get it done
00:20:42Come on y'all!
00:20:49Something's going wrong
00:20:51Someone's on the phone line at 3 o'clock in the morning, yeah, yeah
00:20:58Talking about
00:21:00Talking about
00:21:01How she can make it right
00:21:03You better know what I'm talking about
00:21:04All I have to say is
00:21:07Love and happiness
00:21:09Wait a minute
00:21:10Make you drink
00:21:13Yeah
00:21:15Love can make you do wrong
00:21:17Love can make you do wrong
00:21:18Yeah
00:21:19Love can make you do wrong
00:21:31Yeah
00:21:31Love can make you do wrong
00:21:42Yeah
00:21:43Love can make you do wrong
00:21:48In a happy name
00:22:06Well, your name is True the Star
00:22:09Yes, Lord
00:22:10And you get a band and then you start getting choreography and swagger
00:22:17But the song didn't necessarily show everybody how great and dynamic your voice is
00:22:22But it showed us how dynamic you are as an artist
00:22:28Keep being yourself
00:22:29Yeah
00:22:33The adrenaline is pumping right up
00:22:35I got a breath
00:22:37But it was good
00:22:38The song just kind of
00:22:40No, it's a wrong song
00:22:41Yeah
00:22:43While True waits to see if his authenticity keeps him at the top of the class
00:22:47The pressure is on for Sheldon, who hopes to do the same
00:22:51The new thing I've discovered about Idol is that it's really stripping me right back to basics
00:22:57I've done a lot of TV shows and I've always completely covered up in a mask
00:23:00And it's avant-garde, there's crystals and diamonds, sequins, big gowns, big dresses
00:23:05This is the most stripped-back, vulnerable version of myself ever
00:23:12For this round, I'll be singing Good Luck Babe by Chapel Ryan
00:23:16The vocal in this performance is a lot bigger than my normal ones
00:23:20I challenge myself with a big track
00:23:26It's the first time my voice has ever cracked and it cracked bad, real bad
00:23:32Am I freaking out about it?
00:23:34Yeah, it's definitely in my head
00:23:35Just take a break, take a breath
00:23:38Just relax
00:23:39Trust that you know what you're doing out there
00:23:41Beating myself up a little bit over it
00:23:43Maybe it's because I don't have everything on
00:23:45Maybe it's because I'm doing something completely different
00:23:48But I've come a long way
00:23:50This is like the side of me that I've kept away from a lot of people
00:23:55I've got a lot on the line here
00:24:10It's fine
00:24:12It's cool
00:24:14You can say that you are nothing but you know the truth
00:24:19And guess I'm the fool
00:24:23With your arms out like an angel through the car, son
00:24:29I don't want to call it off
00:24:32But you don't want to call it love
00:24:34You only want to be the one that I call, baby
00:24:39I don't want to call it off
00:24:41But you don't want to call it love
00:24:43You only want to be the one that I call, baby
00:24:47You could kiss a hundred boys in bars
00:24:52Shoot another shot
00:24:54Try to stop the feeling
00:24:56You could say it's just the way you are
00:25:00Make a new excuse
00:25:03Now the stupid reason
00:25:05Good luck
00:25:07Good luck
00:25:09You have to stop the world
00:25:13Just to stop the feeling
00:25:15Good luck
00:25:17You have to stop the world
00:25:22Just to stop the feeling
00:25:24Have to stop the world
00:25:27Just to stop the feeling
00:25:29Have to stop the world
00:25:31Just to stop the feeling
00:25:49Thank you very much.
00:25:50Wow.
00:25:51All right.
00:25:53Welcome to America.
00:25:55Thank you so much.
00:25:55It's an honor to be here, really.
00:25:57It's hard to believe that you spent most of your career behind a mask.
00:26:02Yeah.
00:26:03And now you are revealing not only your face, but your amazing talent and your voice.
00:26:11Amazing talent.
00:26:14This could be your home.
00:26:18I'd love to be here.
00:26:20Congratulations, man.
00:26:21Thank you, everyone.
00:26:26Just the most nervous thing ever.
00:26:28I mean, I've done this a lot of times, and of all the shows I've been on, this is the
00:26:30biggest cut I've ever seen.
00:26:35If I call your name, step forward, please.
00:26:41Sheldon.
00:26:48You're going through.
00:26:49You're going to have to sweat it out in the golden room for a little longer.
00:26:52Say it to me louder.
00:26:56True.
00:26:58Say it to me louder.
00:27:02You'll be joining them all, sir.
00:27:13My heart's going crazy.
00:27:15American Idol have the best of the best, and I want it to compete with the best of the best.
00:27:19I feel like this is destiny.
00:27:21This is how I make the V.
00:27:22We ain't done yet.
00:27:23There's more.
00:27:23There's more to come.
00:27:24Let's keep going until the wheels fall off.
00:27:30Audience on your feet.
00:27:32Make some noise for Jason.
00:27:33Arms!
00:27:35Back in our city auditions, Jason's team helped him knock it out of the park.
00:27:40I'm here with the Texas Tailgaters, which is entertainment baseball.
00:27:44Ow!
00:27:44I got into it, actually, as a singer.
00:27:46Going forward, it's just taking this part of you seriously.
00:27:51And now, in Hollywood Week, he must prove himself on his own.
00:27:55If you're calling back, my heart is still yours.
00:27:59I should have listened to it a little more.
00:28:03On those choruses, make sure you enunciate through them on those big notes.
00:28:08The devil's in the details.
00:28:10And I still love you.
00:28:17Jason, this is the end of your American Idol journey.
00:28:20I think my buddies would be more than proud of me.
00:28:23I gave you everything I had.
00:28:25That's all I can do.
00:28:26And for so many others, giving their all still had them coming up short.
00:28:31Maddie.
00:28:33Kitty.
00:28:35Landon.
00:28:36This is the end of the road.
00:28:38Thank you very much.
00:28:39I might have just not really been as, like, prepared as I would have liked to be.
00:28:44I've never really sung on a stage by myself before.
00:28:48I think I gave great rocks to our lives, but maybe I didn't, my body language didn't say it.
00:28:53You know, I tried my hardest, but it wasn't enough.
00:29:05But for Julianne, she ends her journey with a risk that didn't pay off, performing her original song.
00:29:14Julianne, I am sorry to tell you that your American Idol journey ends right now.
00:29:20Take me up, help me stand.
00:29:23Even though my journey with American Idol is over, it's been such a great experience.
00:29:28I'm going to keep writing music, and this has inspired me, and I hope that my song could inspire other
00:29:33people.
00:29:35I want to die while I'm dancing.
00:29:39I hope everybody back there can hear me.
00:29:41I hope all of the contestants can hear me.
00:29:43When the stars align for you guys, when you're on a stage like this, is when you sing a song
00:29:50that somebody's just been waiting to hear.
00:29:52A song that somebody loves, and you crush it.
00:29:55Make some noise here, 22-year-old.
00:29:58Moore!
00:30:01Moore!
00:30:03What's up, everybody?
00:30:04I'm Moore.
00:30:05I'm going to be singing an original for you guys today.
00:30:10I'm definitely taking a risk.
00:30:11It's a risk that paid off for Moore in the past.
00:30:14I'm a songwriter at heart, and my audition was nothing short of a blessing.
00:30:22You were taking from me years ago, someone I never got to know.
00:30:27I was able to sing my original song, and that meant a lot to me.
00:30:32That writing was very cool.
00:30:34Thank you so much.
00:30:35Very, very cool, man.
00:30:35That means the world to me.
00:30:36I feel like I've got a story to tell that can impact and heal people, because music has healed me.
00:30:40There's definitely moments where I have doubts whether this is the right choice or not.
00:30:44Head on up.
00:30:44Yes.
00:30:45Especially a song that you wrote that no one knows.
00:30:47Is he no band?
00:30:48No band.
00:30:49It's original.
00:30:50It puts a lot of weight on the performance itself.
00:30:53This song's called How to Love You.
00:31:19You're saying words, but they won't reach me.
00:31:25I can't fix it now when you're already picturing the end.
00:31:38And I'm lost on how to love you.
00:31:49Oh, I'm lost on how to love you.
00:31:55It's good, though.
00:31:58Oh, and I can't go with touch.
00:32:07And I'm wondering when I'll find you, will I find myself.
00:32:17Cause I'm lost on how to love you.
00:32:31Thank you guys so much.
00:32:33Oh my gosh.
00:32:34I feel you guys are going to boo me.
00:32:37You're going to boo me.
00:32:39It's coming.

00:39:27Please don't take this as a no
00:39:36Because it is not
00:39:37You're still in the mix
00:39:38You all should be so proud of yourselves
00:39:41You've done such an amazing job
00:39:45I can't believe I've made it through
00:39:47I'm really, I don't know
00:39:48I'm just, whoa, so many emotions
00:39:52I'm in consideration for the top 30
00:39:55So I'm very anxious
00:40:01I feel so much gratitude
00:40:04It's just speaking more life into me
00:40:07So funny
00:40:11Hollywood week is the ultimate test
00:40:15I can do more and push myself more
00:40:18Nerves can get the best of you
00:40:22Vocally, you have to stay on point
00:40:24When it matters most
00:40:25Hollywood week has been insane
00:40:27Pressure just keeps going up
00:40:28And staying hydrated is key
00:40:34Welcome back to American Idol
00:40:36Where inside the theater
00:40:38Our remaining hopefuls are singing for their chance
00:40:41At this year's top 30
00:40:42He brings it down to his knees
00:40:49God, I've been broken more than a time or two
00:40:53Yes, Lord
00:40:54But then you picked me up
00:40:56And showed me what it means to be a man
00:40:59I feel like you're just, like, the all-American boy
00:41:02Just getting up there, singing your heart
00:41:05And we will see if that was enough
00:41:07But meanwhile, in the Golden Room
00:41:09The hopefuls who have survived the first cut
00:41:12Wait, with their fate in the top 30 not established
00:41:15I still could go home
00:41:16I feel like everybody in here has a little anxiety
00:41:20He has a fine line between who goes and who doesn't go
00:41:23When the talent's that good
00:41:24I'm nervous for them
00:41:27Every time you hear, like, the audience
00:41:29A little part of me is, like, the throw up
00:41:32Here, Jenny, six-year-old
00:41:34Jenny, hey, roll
00:41:36Pickle girl
00:41:37Remember Pickle girl, Lana?
00:41:39I love pickles
00:41:40Who doesn't?
00:41:45You're gonna still yet have to push
00:41:47Yes
00:41:47Even more with some of the singers we have
00:41:50For this performance, they're gonna see me bring, like,
00:41:53A little more of whatever they were looking for
00:41:55Especially with the band
00:41:56Like, once that band started
00:41:57I was like, oh, yeah, I'm ready
00:41:58I got this
00:41:59One, two
00:42:00I'm a dude
00:42:00Come on, girl
00:42:01You know what's driving me nuts?
00:42:03No one's admitting that they're nervous
00:42:04And it's pissing me off
00:42:06You are nervous
00:42:07And I'm nervous
00:42:08I'm admitting that
00:42:08Just admit that you're nervous
00:42:13All of these lines across my face
00:42:18Tell you the stories of who I am
00:42:22So many stories of where I've been
00:42:27And how I got you where I am
00:42:32But these stories don't mean anything
00:42:37When you've got no one to tell them
00:42:42Tell it's true
00:42:45I was made for you
00:42:51I climbed across the mountain tops
00:42:56Swim on the rocks in the ocean
00:43:00Across all the lines and I pro-follow
00:43:05Baby, I broke them all for you
00:43:10Oh, because even when I went flat
00:43:15Oh, you made me feel like a man
00:43:19And something to do
00:43:22I was meant for you
00:43:27Oh, yes, and it's true
00:43:31That I was made for you
00:43:43I was eventually born
00:43:47Love her!
00:43:48I was eventually born
00:43:48And it's a matter that we've been in the show
00:43:53Wow, you had this energy around you
00:43:56That you just feel like you want to be on stage
00:43:58Like owning the moment
00:44:00And you should be very, very happy
00:44:02Good job
00:44:02Thank you so much
00:44:06Thank you
00:44:08Oh, my God, I was so cool
00:44:11They stood up
00:44:12Let's go
00:44:13Her voice is like
00:44:14Oh, it's got that rock kind of thing at the top
00:44:18She was clear
00:44:19She was good
00:44:19I feel like I won Luke over a little bit
00:44:21I feel really good about that
00:44:22And my nail just popped off
00:44:24Perfect timing
00:44:25Okay
00:44:29Next, and hoping her dreams will take flight
00:44:31Is Belmont student Jackie Bluebird
00:44:33From the quad to Hollywood week
00:44:35Just like that
00:44:37It's fun, so fast
00:44:38Ever thought about auditioning for American Idol?
00:44:40Uh, yes, yes, I would love to
00:44:42Do you have class?
00:44:43I do, but, like, this is more important than me
00:44:46A week ago, if you told me I was doing American Idol
00:44:48I wouldn't have believed you
00:44:49Because I didn't even know I was auditioning
00:44:51But I'm just grateful to be here in the first place
00:44:54Did you forget about me?
00:44:56I will be singing
00:44:57You Oughta Know by Alanis Morrison
00:44:59I hope the judges see my potential as an artist
00:45:02And a performer
00:45:03I'm just so excited to show them
00:45:05Where I have some more preparation
00:45:06Than my audition with them initially
00:45:08Now I'm here
00:45:11To remind you
00:45:13Of a mess
00:45:14You left when you went away
00:45:17It's not fair
00:45:19To deny me
00:45:21Of the cross I bear
00:45:24That you gave to me
00:45:26Girl, yeah, yeah
00:45:27I don't know
00:45:33Of the mess
00:45:34That you left
00:45:35When you went away
00:45:37It's not fair
00:45:40To deny me
00:45:42Of the cross I bear
00:45:44That you gave to me
00:45:46Girl, yeah, yeah
00:45:48I don't know
00:45:55There's a lot of really great performers
00:45:57So I'm just glad that I went out there and did my best
00:46:00Way to own your moment
00:46:02Just remember, make sure you land the vocals all the way
00:46:05But you should be very, very proud
00:46:07Good job
00:46:15As the night goes on
00:46:16The judges are feeling the weight
00:46:18Of some tough decisions
00:46:21Aye, aye, aye
00:46:23Let's rip the bandaid off
00:46:29Genevieve
00:46:31And Jason
00:46:36You're still in the mix
00:46:40Jackie, you're not going through
00:46:44The fact that I made it this far
00:46:46I'm really grateful
00:46:47And yeah, I had a great time
00:46:53I'm a little bit in disbelief right now
00:46:55I hope this will get me in the top 30
00:46:57Because there are so many good people
00:47:02Stay tuned as more early favorites take the stage
00:47:06A voice that will become so recognizable
00:47:09In years to come
00:47:10As we get even closer to naming our top 30
00:47:14Some of us are going home

00:51:40My dad is a harmonicist.
00:51:42My mother sang her whole life,
00:51:44but I just never took it seriously.
00:51:49Growing up was difficult for me.
00:51:51I had trouble making friends.
00:51:53I was very shy, awkward.
00:51:57I started playing soccer around age six.
00:52:01That kind of led to making friends,
00:52:03and from that point on, soccer was my life.
00:52:07My dream for soccer was always to go pro,
00:52:10to see my last name on my back
00:52:11with a number that I liked.
00:52:14My freshman year of high school,
00:52:15halfway through the soccer season,
00:52:19I went for a free kick,
00:52:23and I planted my left foot to kick it,
00:52:26and I felt like a gear switch in my lower left back,
00:52:29and I couldn't feel my legs.
00:52:31I snapped my back in half,
00:52:34and that changed everything.
00:52:37It was hard for him to not be able to engage
00:52:40in what he loved and be around the other boys
00:52:43and be a part of things.
00:52:45I was lost for a long time,
00:52:47and then I picked up a guitar,
00:52:48and I didn't want to put it down.
00:52:52You haven't played out much.
00:52:54Why is that?
00:52:55I'm working too much.
00:52:57Well, stop doing that.
00:52:59I just want to hear more.
00:53:02I've never been willing to take chances
00:53:04and opportunities,
00:53:05but this holds the future that I want.
00:53:09All right, let's see what they think about him.
00:53:11All right, here we go.
00:53:32I will find myself walking down the road all alone,
00:53:41just like a rolling stone.
00:53:47There's this hope that is burning in my soul,
00:53:53and it grows just like an ocean wave.
00:53:59There's this storm cloud heading my way,
00:54:06and it keeps on pouring down tears of pain.
00:54:12Well, this wind stirs up the hurricane,
00:54:20and it keeps on pouring down tears of pain.
00:54:28Yes, I am lost amongst these North Country stars.
00:54:34Where you find me, lead me on hold.
00:54:43There's this pain that is coursing through my veins.
00:55:00And it keeps on pouring down tears of pain.
00:55:08Well, this wind stirs up the hurricane,
00:55:15and I'll keep on drowning as long as you're away.
00:55:22And I'll keep on drowning as long as you're away.
00:55:40A voice that will become so recognizable in years to come.
00:55:48And to be some of the first ears to ever hear it is pretty special.
00:55:55When you have this unique voice paired with these songs that are going to happen in your life,
00:56:01it's going to be really, really special.
00:56:08What was it like to perform in front of a crowd for the first time?
00:56:11It was great.
00:56:12Yeah?
00:56:12Yeah.
00:56:14Wow.
00:56:16It felt good.
00:56:17It felt good, that felt really coming.
00:56:18Our judges now have decide who in this final group of the original 127 singers in Hollywood Week
00:56:24will make it to the golden room,
00:56:26and the chance to move on to the top 30.
00:56:31Bricks.
00:56:39You're going through to the next round.
00:56:48Bella.
00:56:51Daniel Stallworth.
00:56:59You'll be joining them all, sir.
00:57:07I just got a yes.
00:57:11That's crazy.
00:57:15This moment right here, I'm overjoyed.
00:57:19I'm overjoyed.
00:57:20I mean, I had my doubts, but I guess they liked me enough, so.
00:57:26It was so good.
00:57:29Thank you so much.
00:57:31My fans.
00:57:38What are we doing, gang?
00:57:39What's up?
00:57:42What's happening?
00:57:43Give yourselves a round of applause for those great performances out there.
00:57:48Well, there are 60 of you here in this room, and the judges said only 30 of you will go
00:57:54on to that next round.
00:57:56Right now, they're actually deliberating.
00:57:59With the task of having to cut so many hopefuls, the judges review the performances to pare it
00:58:05down to just 30.
00:58:07It's hard.
00:58:07There are people that are really good that we are having to send home.
00:58:12Soon you'll be called back into the theater.
00:58:14So when you are called back in, just be aware anything could happen.
00:58:19Everyone's fighting for their lives in here.
00:58:21It's chaos.
00:58:21I've got a massive curveball thrown at us.
00:58:24Some of us are going home.
00:58:28We got more bloodshed coming.
00:58:30We got more decisions to make than we're used to.
00:58:33The remaining 60 must now be cut in half again, as the judges decide who will make it through
00:58:41to the top 30.
00:58:43It's so hard having to cut this menu, y'all.
00:58:46It's a big cut.
00:58:48Hopefully, we are making the right decisions.
00:58:50Well, I feel like I'm going to throw up.
00:58:52I know they might puke.
00:58:54I don't know.
00:58:55We feel good about it.
00:58:56We've got them.
00:58:57Yeah, we got them.
00:58:58I think we do.
00:58:59With the judges' decisions made, the singers return to the theater to learn their fate.
00:59:04It's been a crazy Hollywood week here in Nashville.
00:59:08You've been through a lot.
00:59:09We've had to talk out your futures amongst us three, and it's nothing that we take lightly.
00:59:18I mean, you're all here for reasons, because you're really good.
00:59:21And if a couple of you kind of occupied the same space, we definitely have to look at that.
00:59:28So we have some sing-offs that we're going to ask you to do.
00:59:33And I'm going to deliver the first two names of the sing-offs.
00:59:39We never planned it.
00:59:41It happened naturally.
00:59:42They have the same two last names.
00:59:46If your last name is Garner, where's the Garner's?
00:59:53Jason, Michael, the two Garner's, you're in a sing-off together.
00:59:57So we've got a slot.
00:59:59One of you will have it.
01:00:00You are dismissed, so you can go work on your song that you want to sing.
01:00:04And y'all are our first sing-offs.
01:00:07Garner versus Garner.
01:00:12You got this.
01:00:13So I get the second sing-off announcement.
01:00:17So I look forward to seeing Mary Jo Young and Chloe Lauren.
01:00:24All right, so it'll be you guys.
01:00:26Y'all are in the sing-off.
01:00:27All right.
01:00:28Go work on your songs.
01:00:30Bring your A-game.
01:00:32While the sing-off duos leave to prepare, the remaining finalists will now be called up in groups to find
01:00:39out who has earned their place in the top 30.
01:00:43All right.
01:00:45When I call your name, please stand up and make your way to the stage.
01:00:50Josh, Micaiah, Jordan, Lucas, Bella, Madison, Keela Richardson.
01:01:04I gotta make it to the top 30 for my baby.
01:01:07I'm gonna make it.
01:01:07We're gonna make it.
01:01:08We're gonna go all the way, okay?
01:01:10I got your promise.
01:01:11Brayden, Chris.
01:01:14I'm gonna be one of the 30 left standing.
01:01:16I mean, it means everything.
01:01:18Whatever you do, do not give up on your dreams.
01:01:23But I can see.
01:01:24Especially the dreams.
01:01:26Behind your eyes.
01:01:27Of becoming an American Idol.
01:01:30Because you're still with us.
01:01:33You're in the top 30.
01:01:36All your beautiful colors.
01:01:39Congratulations.
01:01:42All those shades you never made.
01:01:45Woo!
01:01:46Let's go.
01:01:47Let's go.
01:01:47Let's go.
01:01:48Let's go.
01:01:49Let's go.
01:01:51Let's go.
01:01:51Let's go.
01:01:52Let's go.
01:01:53Let's go.
01:01:54Let's go.
01:01:55Jacob.
01:01:57To be in the top 30, you know, that's what's gonna get me to that next level.
01:02:01See ya.
01:02:02I mean, that is everything I could ever dream of.
01:02:05Trace.
01:02:06It would change my life.
01:02:08More.
01:02:08I'm a little nervous because this is the big moment.
01:02:11Julia.
01:02:12It means everything to me.
01:02:15You've already won because you're here.
01:02:19The talent is in you.
01:02:23But it's gonna be the end of the line with this moment.
01:02:28Do you think about me when you look at the moon?
01:02:33To know that I made this far, I did everything I could.
01:02:36I hate to admit I still care about you.
01:02:40A little disappointed, but...
01:02:42I'll be back.
01:02:43Love you, Carrie.
01:02:44It's been a long time since I've heard you speak.
01:02:47It was upsetting to hear the no, but I know this isn't the end.
01:02:50You never saw who I turned out to be.
01:02:55Tiana.
01:02:57Jake Thistle.
01:02:59Philman Lee.
01:03:01Being in the top 30 would change my life.
01:03:03I definitely pray that that happens.
01:03:07Brooks.
01:03:09Daniel Stallworth.
01:03:11Cutter.
01:03:12Bryant Thomas.
01:03:14There's so much talent.
01:03:16I just hope that I'll get the next round.
01:03:19Sheldon Riley.
01:03:21Jesse Findling.
01:03:22And Julian.
01:03:26Thank you so much for being in the competition.
01:03:29It's been a long, long day.
01:03:31You guys have fought so hard.
01:03:36But unfortunately, your journey is just getting started.
01:03:42You are in our top 30.
01:03:45Maybe you're still sleeping on.
01:03:49Maybe you're still sleeping on.
01:03:52Wake up.
01:03:53You're an American Idol.
01:03:54Yeah.
01:03:55Top 30.
01:03:57Lonnie.
01:04:00I want to make it to the top 30 more than absolutely anything.
01:04:04Royal.
01:04:06I don't know how the judges are gonna pick everyone so good.
01:04:10Grant.
01:04:11I'd like to be in the top 30.
01:04:12I want to be in it bad.
01:04:14Drew the star.
01:04:16I definitely would love to be the next American Idol for sure.
01:04:21Feel very proud of yourselves.
01:04:23You're in the toughest class we have ever had.
01:04:29But it's the beginning of your career.
01:04:32And when I say it's the beginning, whatever you do is up to you.
01:04:37Because you're not gonna go through.
01:04:39Dreaming that you're still asleep in my arms.
01:04:43We wish you all the luck in the world.
01:04:45God bless you.
01:04:46I should be a little bit more proud of myself.
01:04:50It's just thinking that I had a lot more to give.
01:04:54I still feel you here in my skin and my heart.
01:04:57This wasn't easy for absolutely anyone.
01:05:00So, it's hard.
01:05:05Okay, we got one more group.
01:05:06If I call your name, please head to the stage.
01:05:11Brianna.
01:05:14Kira Powell.
01:05:17Kendall.
01:05:18I would love nothing more than to be a part of those 30 singers that make it.
01:05:24Let's just hope. Hope and pray.
01:05:26Hannah.
01:05:29Ruby Ray.
01:05:31I really wanna, I really wanna make it.
01:05:33That would be like the ultimate dream come true.
01:05:36Becky Lee.
01:05:37Brenna Brigman.
01:05:40Ray.
01:05:43Genevieve.
01:05:47Abayomi.
01:05:52Look at this group of all girls.
01:05:55Look down the line at each other.
01:05:59Sorry this is so drawn out and painful, but...
01:06:05All you girls are going through to the next round.
01:06:08You're in our top 30.
01:06:13Girls.
01:06:13I feel all of the feelings.
01:06:15I'm so excited. I'm so ready for this journey.
01:06:18Ah!
01:06:19Wow.
01:06:20Speechless.
01:06:21I'm moving on. I'm so excited.
01:06:24Top 30! I'm top 30!
01:06:27It's great news for the 28 who have survived Hollywood week.
01:06:31But four hopefuls remain to fight for the last two spots of our top 30.
01:06:36Well, you know, you always told me you do well under pressure.
01:06:40I do better under pressure.
01:06:40Remember? You told me that.
01:06:41Well, guess what?
01:06:42Your dream has come true.
01:06:44When I heard that I was gonna be missing off my journal, it automatically shot up and I was like,
01:06:49I got this.
01:06:50You feel good?
01:06:51Feel confident?
01:06:52No, no.
01:06:58Welcome back to Hollywood week.
01:07:00Got two slots left in the top 30.
01:07:04And fighting for one of those slots are Chloe and Mary Jo.
01:07:08Chloe and I became really good friends the last two days, which makes me really sad.
01:07:13We're very similar.
01:07:14Not only with our tones, but also personalities.
01:07:18So I'm kind of just like, bang.
01:07:21Less familiar with each other are the two Garners, also vying for a spot in the top 30.
01:07:27I'm singing off against Michael Garner. I'm Jason Garner.
01:07:30Do you know me?
01:07:31I do not know him.
01:07:33Ironically, they also both sang songs by the Red Clay Strays in their auditions.
01:07:39I did not expect my night to end like this.
01:07:42But Michael's idol journey has been unexpected from the start.
01:07:45We're gonna give you a shot.
01:07:48What you do with your voice is definitely beyond 16.
01:07:53Like, I look at you and I see my son.
01:07:57And I would not throw him in the middle of it.
01:08:01It's a yes for me.
01:08:04Miss Carrie, I just wanna say, I'm gonna prove to you that I have what it takes.
01:08:09And Michael's continued to grow during Hollywood week.
01:08:12You are a 16-year-old kid doing impressive stuff. You should be very, very proud.
01:08:17It's not just about the age, it's about what you got inside.
01:08:20For fellow high schooler Jason, the mission has been authenticity.
01:08:25Your stage presence is electrified. But I don't want you to be a gimmick. Take your vocals and your performances
01:08:32really serious at this point.
01:08:34Yes, sir.
01:08:34And in Hollywood week, he made a believer out of Carrie.
01:08:39Jason, you are genuine and you're believable.
01:08:43That's great. Thank you.
01:08:45The boys have been rehearsing.
01:08:47Yeah. This is stressful for them, boys.
01:08:50Let's dig right in.
01:08:51I have not heard him sing.
01:08:53I'm pretty much just going in blind, yeah.
01:08:55I don't want you to compare yourself to him. Just lean in and go for it. This is your moment.
01:08:59Second chance is always, you know, your time to shine, you know.
01:09:02You feel good? You feel confident?
01:09:05I don't know.
01:09:06They got to sing for their life.
01:09:08Let's bring them out.
01:09:09Yeah, let's get them in here.
01:09:14All right, guys.
01:09:16All right, so the Battle of the Garners.
01:09:19That totally happened just by happenstance.
01:09:23All right, Jason, what are you going to sing for us?
01:09:25I'm going to sing That's Alright Mama by Elvis Presley.
01:09:27Ooh!
01:09:28All right.
01:09:32Well, that's all right, Mama.
01:09:35That's all right for you.
01:09:38That's all right, Mama.
01:09:40Just in the way you do.
01:09:42But that's all right.
01:09:44That's all right.
01:09:46That's all right.
01:09:48That's all right now, Mama.
01:09:49Any way you do.
01:09:53Well, I'm leaving town, baby.
01:09:55I'm leaving town to show.
01:09:58Well, and you won't be bothered with that
01:10:00Anyway, to show.
01:10:02But that's all right.
01:10:04That's all right.
01:10:14Yeah, I'm leaving town.
01:10:18I'm leaving town to show, baby.
01:10:20That's all right.
01:10:22That's all right now, mama, any way you do
01:10:33Oh, well, well
01:10:36All right, Jason
01:10:39Jason doing the showmanship, all right
01:10:41All right
01:10:42Trying to earn it, I like it
01:10:43Yes, sir
01:10:44All right, Michael, what are you going to sing for us?
01:10:47I'll be singing Drift Away by Dobie Gray
01:10:49Sweet, all right, let's go
01:10:51Way to go
01:11:05Day after day, I'm more confused
01:11:11Yet I look for the light through the pouring rain
01:11:18You know that's a game that I hate to lose
01:11:24I'm feeling the strain
01:11:28Ain't it a shame
01:11:29Give me the beat, boys, to free my soul
01:11:33I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
01:11:39Come on, Michael
01:11:42Well, give me the beat, boys, to free my soul
01:11:45I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
01:11:50Won't you take me away
01:11:56Yeah, yeah
01:11:57Yeah
01:11:59Yeah
01:11:59Yeah
01:12:03I wanna stress to you guys both
01:12:06You are both, you are both very talented young men
01:12:09We've put you in a tough situation to duke it out like this
01:12:13We're gonna huddle up
01:12:15We're gonna huddle up
01:12:15And we're gonna figure out who gets to go be in the top 30
01:12:19Here we go
01:12:19Thank you so much
01:12:26Gosh, it's tough
01:12:29One is the obvious show
01:12:30And the other one is just the one of my heart's
01:12:34Right
01:12:34You know what I'm saying?
01:12:35What do you think?
01:12:36I'm not saying
01:12:39Dude
01:12:39You cool, man?
01:12:42Yeah
01:12:42That's the right way to go
01:12:44That's the right way to go
01:12:46We've been here a long time
01:12:47And you boys have us making decisions late into the night
01:12:53Tough decisions
01:12:54Very tough, guys
01:13:00The next to go in the top 30
01:13:04Is gonna be

01:13:34Michael, you're in our top 30
01:13:38Jason, it's the end of the road for you, buddy
01:13:41Alright
01:13:41Thank you so much
01:13:55I'm pissed
01:13:56No
01:14:04He got the top 30, which
01:14:05Well deserved
01:14:06But I'm glad I didn't have to just sit there
01:14:09I got to go out and try to get it
01:14:11But, oh man, I'm just so thankful for how far I got
01:14:15God is so good
01:14:16It's just so amazing
01:14:18I'm giving up here for us to bring my soul
01:14:21I won't get lost in your rock and roll
01:14:24You know, I just went out there
01:14:26I did my best and everything
01:14:27You know, I prayed about everything
01:14:30God showed me the light
01:14:31I made it in the top 30
01:14:33Alright, we just took care of one
01:14:34We have 29
01:14:36That's right
01:14:37One final spot remains
01:14:41Mary Jo or Chloe
01:14:44I'm, that's how I feel
01:14:46Chloe has a great freaking voice
01:14:48She's incredible
01:14:49And I'm like sad because I love Chloe
01:14:52Bring all the water works
01:14:55I do know Mary Jo
01:14:56We became close throughout Hollywood Week
01:14:59She's performed many times
01:15:01And I have not
01:15:03I didn't know we were going to
01:15:05That's all right
01:15:05So this is a once in a lifetime for me
01:15:09When we give you confidence
01:15:11Because we can sense that it's not all there
01:15:15Go for it all
01:15:16But since arriving at Hollywood Week
01:15:19The self-doubt has not left Chloe's side
01:15:22I feel like I let myself down
01:15:24I didn't self-sabotage really badly
01:15:27I tried to do the best that I could
01:15:30It's almost like she's given up on herself
01:15:34Mary Jo's Hollywood experience
01:15:36Goes back five seasons
01:15:41Where her nerves led to forgetting the lyrics
01:15:43In her duet with Benson Boone
01:15:50You just lived your worst nightmare
01:15:52Now that you've experienced it
01:15:54You have to understand
01:15:55We all mess up
01:15:56That's right
01:15:57But what you have
01:15:58Is a great gift
01:16:00But there was no holding back for her this season
01:16:02We're so glad to have you back in our presence
01:16:05And you are singing your butt off
01:16:08Congratulations
01:16:09Thank you
01:16:11Are they ready?
01:16:16When you're out there
01:16:16I want you to say one thing to yourself in your head
01:16:18Do not rush
01:16:20You're meant to do this
01:16:21Get out there
01:16:22And sing the you know what
01:16:24Out of this song
01:16:25Amen
01:16:26All right ladies
01:16:32So we have Mary Jo and Chloe
01:16:35Duking it out for that last final spot into the top 30
01:16:41So give it your all
01:16:43Who wants to go first?
01:16:45Oh lord
01:16:46I'll go
01:16:51What are you going to sing Chloe?
01:16:52I'm singing You Stole the Show by Santa Spira
01:16:54Okay
01:17:05You Stole the Show
01:17:08Got a sending ovation
01:17:13I lost control
01:17:16From the stage
01:17:19From your facing
01:17:21You don't say hello
01:17:26I can't wait
01:17:28I'm impatient
01:17:30You stole my show
01:17:34So I chase you
01:17:36To the pavement
01:17:38Rub me in your arms again
01:17:42Your adrenaline
01:17:44Makes me shiver
01:17:47Show me that you're genuine
01:17:51That I'm safe again
01:17:54That you came here different
01:17:56No time to define
01:18:00But before we get closer
01:18:05I ask if you love me
01:18:10And you just
01:18:15Shrug your shoulders
01:18:23Amazing
01:18:28That was good
01:18:29Really great
01:18:30Thank you
01:18:31All right Mary Jo
01:18:32I'm going to do
01:18:34Skinny Love by Bon Iver

01:19:12To be patient
01:19:14And I told you
01:19:17To be fine
01:19:18And I told you
01:19:20To be balanced
01:19:22And I told you
01:19:24To be kind
01:19:25And in the morning
01:19:28I'll be with you
01:19:29But it will be
01:19:31A different kind
01:19:32Because I'll be
01:19:34Holding all the tickets
01:19:36And you'll be
01:19:37Owning all the fines
01:19:39Come on
