00:03:44is back with us again. Now Kiki has a not to miss performance, made her in the show very
00:03:52exciting. But first, thank you very much. You got a ways to go, so save some. Let's talk
00:04:00voting. Yeah, so many easy ways to do it. Say goodbye to the American Idol app. That is
00:04:04out. The social vote is in. All you have to do is head to at American Idol on Facebook,
00:04:10Instagram, and TikTok, and comment on the pinned official voting post with the first name of

00:04:25method. Got it? Here are the 10 amazing singers. Take a look. They're vying for your all important
00:04:34votes tonight. They're hoping to continue on in the competition by making it into your top
00:04:3914. So make sure you vote for all of your favorites. This week, they have the awesome experience of
00:04:46being mentored by country music legend Brad Paisley. And singer and award-winning actress,
00:04:53Kiki Palmer. All right, girl. Here's how it went down with the Grange Georges. Filmingly.
00:05:01We're in Hawaii. It's like something out of a movie.
00:05:05Four. I love golfing. I'm definitely not the best golfer in the world, but I just love going out
00:05:10there and strifling down the middle. Back at home, we definitely got some golf courses, but this place
00:05:15is amazing. Let's go. So it's awesome to be here. Hey, nice to meet you. How are you doing? It
00:05:22was amazing seeing Kiki and Brad. They were super cool. I'm excited to hear what you're going to be singing.
00:05:27I know you're very soulful. So what's the song choice today? It's Don't Stop Believing by Journey. Fabulous. That's cool.
00:05:33Just a small town, girl. My journey so far, each round, I've gotten more nervous than nervous because I'm chasing
00:05:40my dreams. My knees are shaking, dude. How are you holding up? A little nervous.
00:05:44Like, I'm not too confident. What would you say is the main thing that makes you nervous? Just trying to
00:05:48be perfect. I'm a huge critic on myself, so. I can relate.
00:05:51Man, I'm in the top 20 of American Idol. From LaGrange, Georgia, a small town. It's just amazing. I think
00:05:57my family thinks the same way. Oh, damn.
00:06:03I think my family thinks the same way, so hopefully I get to go even further. I ain't been told
00:06:09no yet, but. I can't talk right. I can't even breathe.
00:06:14The nerve stuff, you take that energy and you let it be a part of the performance. It's kind of
00:06:17like a trick that you can do with your mind.
00:06:19The jitters, when you're getting up on that stage, I think the hardest part of the song is the first
00:06:24part.
00:06:25Yes.
00:06:25Like, the second part's give it all you got, you know, and you do that. Let me hear that first
00:06:29verse again.
00:06:33That's the note, lonely.
00:06:35Those first few falsetto notes are just the ones to not get tripped up on.
00:06:39Yes.
00:06:39Because then everybody breathes easy.
00:06:41I think if Philman hits those notes in the beginning, he's got a real chance of going on.
00:06:46It's just a big stage.
00:06:48I just want to make sure my family's proud.
00:06:51It would just mean the world to keep going.
00:06:53I want to keep singing for everybody.
00:07:05Come on, sing it now.
00:07:10She took the midnight train, going anywhere.
00:07:18Just a city boy, want to raise us out to try.
00:07:27He took the midnight train, going anywhere.
00:07:35I see you in a smoky room.
00:07:39I smell a wild chiming fuel.
00:07:42Come on now.
00:07:43For a smile that can share the night, goes on and on and on and on.
00:07:52Strangers waiting, up and down the boulevard.
00:07:58Shadows searching in the night.
00:08:08Streetlights, people living just to find the emotion.
00:08:15Hiding somewhere in the night.
00:08:32Streetlights, people living just to find the emotion.
00:08:56Oh
00:08:57Don't stop leaving
00:09:01Hold on to that feeling
00:09:10There you go
00:09:12You're coming kicking off the show

00:09:22By the way your hair does not move
00:09:24It does not move that entire performance

00:09:35Let's go to the judges
00:09:36Alright so at the beginning I said
00:09:39Please don't let this song intimidate you
00:09:42You stepped up

00:09:46And then you leaned into it
00:09:49You did a great job
00:09:50Thank you so much
00:09:54Filming I was very nervous for a second
00:09:56But when I seen you take that mic off that stand
00:09:59You started walking
00:10:00Getting a little swag to your step
00:10:02The vocals were hitting every note
00:10:04They needed to hit
00:10:06Excellent job I'm so proud of you
00:10:09I love that you made it your own

00:10:20But you took it and you put your own spin on it
00:10:22If there's one thing that I could tell you to do a little bit more
00:10:26It's just relax
00:10:27I kind of felt your brain working a little bit
00:10:29And that's not a bad thing because you know this is a big deal

00:11:40How did you start?
00:11:49Welcome back to the show
00:11:51The journey for our finalists to this incredible stage has been an emotional one
00:11:55Especially for a Maryland native Ray
00:11:57Here's her time with Brad Pacey
00:11:59Kiki Palmer
00:12:04Hi Ray
00:12:05Hi Ray
00:12:05Hi Ray
00:12:07Kiki is my girl
00:12:09I love her
00:12:10Nice to meet you
00:12:11I love you so much
00:12:12Kiki is just unapologetically herself
00:12:14And I just want to be just like that
00:12:17I'm singing Respect by Aretha Franklin
00:12:19Respect, yeah
00:12:19Oh yes B-E-E-C-T
00:12:20So what makes you say Aretha?
00:12:23I grew up on Aretha
00:12:24My mom just always played Aretha everywhere
00:12:27And she just told me like you're going to command the stage like her
00:12:30You're going to command the stage
00:12:32R-E-S-P-E-C-T
00:12:34Find out what it means to me
00:12:36So let's talk about what you're going to do on stage
00:12:38I don't have any choreography
00:12:40And I do want to have like something in mind
00:12:42I normally just kind of wing it
00:12:43But like I don't know
00:12:45All the other rounds have been super emotional and I'm crying
00:12:48So now I'm having fun
00:12:50And I think that's what I'm excited for
00:12:53It's just markers
00:12:55Like yeah
00:12:55By this point of the song I'm going to go to the right
00:12:58By this point of the song I'm going to go to the left
00:13:00All it would take is one of those notes this way or this way
00:13:04And I think that audience would go crazy
00:13:10Yeah
00:13:11Yeah
00:13:12Yeah
00:13:13Fantastic
00:13:14It seemed like you had such ease with it
00:13:16Yeah it's just the dynamics are so right
00:13:19I love that you gave us an array of what your vocals could do in this song
00:13:23Kiki loved my dynamics?
00:13:24Okay
00:13:25Yeah
00:13:25Wow

00:16:04Oh, yeah, she has somebody needs to ring the fire alarm because you just set the whole show on fire
00:16:15You were singing down I even heard a little talking personality throughout when you hit that move at the end
00:16:20I mean it was just the performance was fabulous from top to bottom. You gave us stage presence. You gave
00:16:25us the outfit
00:16:25I mean, it's giving Mary J.
00:16:26Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. I just live mama
00:16:32So we we've known you for a bit and we've been in these like much more subdued
00:16:38Situations, I feel like this was the missing ingredient. We always knew you could sing but you can entertain like
00:16:50You completely made it your own you weren't trying to copy anybody you did you you rearranged the song
00:16:56They had fun. You had fun. We had fun. That was amazing. Thank you so much
00:17:04Whoa, that was a wreath of rain y'all. I mean, I'm just I don't know what vitamin pill you
00:17:11took
00:17:12But this is when you have to surprise us you pulled it out and gave it to us. That was
00:17:16amazing. I love it
00:17:18You got my respect and
00:17:23And uh, you're you're one of our best singers if not the best singer and a way to come out
00:17:29and work
00:17:29That didn't get lost on you
00:17:35Well, look at me dropping nuggets of
00:17:39Wisdom I think anyway, I just love the whole performance. It was comfortable you were entertaining

00:19:12kind of pay off. It feels great. I'm from Galveston, Tennessee and
00:19:16Hometown support has been awesome
00:19:19You perform all around town. How does that happen with you being in high school? Oh, it's just fun
00:19:24Teachers and students and my buddies and they all come out shows and all that
00:19:28It's and I do play one of your songs in almost every gig. Oh, really? I'm a massive Brad Payson
00:19:34fan
00:19:38I play the farmers market a lot in Nashville. Yeah, yeah, it gets the tips
00:19:43I'm a big fan of Brad just because his guitar playing is singing his songwriting his stage presence everything about
00:19:49him
00:19:49I'm sure I'll be on the Opry in the next couple months
00:19:52Maybe you can come to that and then we go walk around backstage. That would be awesome. Thank you so
00:19:56much
00:19:56So what song are you doing today? I'm gonna be doing just to see you smile. It's one of my
00:20:00favorite songs ever written
00:20:02Just to see you smile
00:20:06I'd do anything you effortlessly sort of get lost in the song and then acknowledge there's an audience
00:20:13I don't know if he's giving him that the eye you're giving me but I was loving the eye
00:20:17so it's a very
00:20:19Heartfelt interpretation of Tim's thing. It doesn't sound like Tim and it shouldn't it sounds like you and that's hard
00:20:25to do
00:20:26Differentiating yourself is the name of the game on a show like this. It really is. Absolutely. You know, they
00:20:30say don't meet your heroes
00:20:31But I'm really glad I met Brad so hoping that I can take his advice with me on the stage
00:20:42You always had enough things to glitter
00:20:46And I was far from being made to go
00:20:51I don't know
00:20:53I don't know how but I scrimped up the money
00:20:57Oh, I just never could quite tell you no
00:21:01But just like when you were leaving
00:21:04Emory, Lord
00:21:07Taking that new job in Tennessee
00:21:12And I quit mine so we could be together
00:21:15And I can't forget the way you looked at me
00:21:20And I can't forget the way you looked at me
00:21:22But just to see me you smile
00:21:25I'd do anything
00:21:29That you wanted me to
00:21:32And all is said and done
00:21:35I'd never count a call
00:21:38It's one thought that's lost
00:21:43Just to see you smile
00:21:45Just to see you smile
00:21:46Yeah, yesterday I knew just what you wanted
00:21:52When you came walking up to me with him
00:21:57And I told you that I was happy for you
00:22:01Just to see you smile
00:22:03And giving the chance I'd like it
00:22:06Just to see you smile
00:22:11And giving the chance I'd like it
00:22:12I'd do anything
00:22:13That you wanted me to
00:22:17And all is said and done
00:22:21I'd never count the cost
00:22:24I'd never count the cost
00:22:25Which one thought that's lost
00:22:29Just to see you smile
00:22:37Just to see you smile
00:22:40Yeah!
00:22:43Yeah!
00:22:44Yeah!
00:22:49Lovely
00:22:50Lovely
00:22:51It was lovely
00:22:51It was lovely
00:22:53You know, you made that so comfortable
00:22:55Yes
00:22:56I almost forgot that you were a contestant
00:22:59That's what you want
00:23:00You want comfort
00:23:01You want people to understand that
00:23:03This is what you do naturally
00:23:06And what you just performed there
00:23:07Was about as natural as you're ever gonna get
00:23:09It was fantastic
00:23:10Thank you
00:23:11Thank you
00:23:12I agree with everything that Lionel said
00:23:15Because you literally transported us into your world
00:23:17I felt like I was at a beach club
00:23:19I was at a festival
00:23:20You know, I haven't been in love in ages
00:23:22I'm single as a Pringle
00:23:24And I felt romantic
00:23:26Because you set the tone
00:23:27You were making me smile
00:23:29I mean, I just loved it
00:23:30You are very much you
00:23:31And you did a fabulous job
00:23:32Thank you so much
00:23:34Single as a Pringle
00:23:36Your voice is so...
00:23:38It is powerful
00:23:39It is beautiful
00:23:40And there is something really special about the simplicity
00:23:43You don't try to over sing
00:23:45There you go
00:23:46You're like laid back in the pocket
00:23:47There you go
00:23:48And it's just so easy to listen to you
00:23:50And to watch you
00:23:51Thank you so much
00:23:52I loved it
00:23:53Yeah
00:23:54Luke Bryan
00:23:56Yeah, just keep delivering
00:23:58Keep making us feel comfortable
00:24:00But also keep adding the pressure and intensity
00:24:03There you go
00:24:04And pick songs that really pull you outside of your comfort zone
00:24:07But you just keep knocking every performance out of the park
00:24:10Thank you so much
00:24:11Thank you
00:24:13Luke predicted you would make your hometown's Wikipedia page at some point, right?
00:24:19Maybe old Lucas Leon
00:24:21Maybe
00:24:22He's got a spot here on the Wikipedia
00:24:23Maybe
00:24:24So I was just backstage doing my research
00:24:27Gallatin, Tennessee
00:24:28And look at this
00:24:29Lucas Leon, American Idol, season 24 contested
00:24:35Lucas Leon, you've got to vote for him right now
00:24:37If you want his idol journey to live on
00:24:39There's multiple ways to cast your own votes
00:24:41Head on over to AmericanIdol.com for all the details
00:24:43Lucas Leon, everyone
00:24:45All right, buddy, thank you
00:24:46Congrats
00:24:46Well done
00:24:51The next worship director, Jordan McCullough
00:24:54Takes on a U2 crowd pleaser
00:24:56Here's how he impressed, right?
00:24:58Thank you
00:25:01How you liking Hawaii?
00:25:03Girl, I'm trying to figure out how I can stay a little long
00:25:04Yes
00:25:05Cause my goodness
00:25:06The sun is nice
00:25:07The water is nice
00:25:08Goofy
00:25:09I got to meet Goofy
00:25:11I honestly felt like a little kid when I saw him
00:25:13Oh my God
00:25:15How did it go in your last performance?
00:25:17I came in a little unsure
00:25:18Jordan
00:25:19But it landed me the platinum ticket
00:25:21The hopefuls voted for me
00:25:22And it was amazing
00:25:23I felt so honored
00:25:25I feel like the pressure is on
00:25:26Because I feel like a lot of people are looking at me
00:25:28To see, okay, how can he follow up?
00:25:30So what are you singing today?
00:25:31Today I'm singing Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For
00:25:33Okay
00:25:33By U2
00:25:34It's definitely outside of my genre
00:25:36I picked this song because it talks about
00:25:38I still haven't found what I'm looking for
00:25:40But honestly, as I'm continuing my journey in American Idol
00:25:43I kind of finally found what I'm looking for
00:25:46I'm finding my passion
00:25:47I have run through the field
00:25:52I'm kind of known right now for the showstopper experience
00:25:55And I want to just show the judges that I can actually just stand here and sing too
00:25:58Just me
00:25:59And that's always a risk in itself
00:26:01Every imperfection or perfection will be noticed and acknowledged
00:26:04So for him to start that way, that's a crazy choice, you know what I'm saying?
00:26:07That's like definitely bold and it could be risky
00:26:10He's taking a risk, but I think it'll pay off
00:26:12You gotta swing for that fence
00:26:14I mean, for me, it really says I'm out here without a net
00:26:17That's the energy that I'm looking for
00:26:20Okay
00:26:20I can't wait to see how this goes
00:26:22I'm stepping out of my comfort for sure
00:26:24But my approach will be a little bit different than what America has seen
00:26:28And I hope that they will enjoy it and love it too
00:26:36I have climbed the highest mountain
00:26:48I have run through the fields
00:26:56Only to be with you
00:27:02Only to be with you
00:27:08I have run
00:27:12I have crawled
00:27:15I have scaled
00:27:18These city walls
00:27:22These city walls
00:27:27These city walls
00:27:29only to be with you
00:27:33But I still
00:27:37have it found
00:27:43Oh
00:27:44What I'm looking for
00:27:47What I'm looking for
00:27:53I believe in the kingdom come
00:27:58With all the colors
00:28:00Bleeding to one
00:28:03Bleeding to one
00:28:06But the act stops you running
00:28:10You broke the bar
00:28:15You lose the chains
00:28:17Carry the cross
00:28:20Of my shame
00:28:22Oh, of my shame
00:28:26You know I believe that
00:28:30Yeah
00:28:31But I still haven't found
00:28:37What I'm looking for
00:28:41But I still haven't found
00:28:46What I'm looking for
00:28:51But I still haven't found
00:29:05What I'm looking for
00:29:31I still haven't found
00:29:37I still haven't found
00:29:37I've done many things
00:29:38I've tried many things
00:29:39But tonight
00:29:40Looking out and seeing all of you guys
00:29:42I feel like I finally have found
00:29:45What I'm looking for
00:29:49I think that Jordan has used
00:29:52Up all the notes
00:29:55Possible
00:29:56In the music business
00:29:58First of all, Jordan
00:30:01To take a U2 song
00:30:03And turn it into
00:30:04Spiritual
00:30:06That's a feat
00:30:08And then on top of that
00:30:10Turn the U2 song
00:30:12Into your song
00:30:13Is the way you
00:30:15Win competitions
00:30:18Thank you so much
00:30:19Thank you

00:34:04I'm singing Mama Knows Best
00:34:05By Jessie J
00:34:06Okay
00:34:06I'm dedicating this song
00:34:07To my mother
00:34:09My mom has always been there for me
00:34:11She's the reason I started performing
00:34:13She's a rapper
00:34:17She's a teacher
00:34:18And getting her bachelor's degree
00:34:19All while being a mother
00:34:21A single mother
00:34:22It's insane to me
00:34:23I want her to just feel like
00:34:25Everything she's put into me
00:34:26Is finally pouring out
00:34:28I love you
00:34:29And you got this
00:34:32I'm so excited
00:34:33That I'm going to get to see you
00:34:34Do your thing
00:34:34Mama knows best
00:34:36When times get hard
00:34:39You and I were talented at 16
00:34:41But I was failing
00:34:42My third driver's test by now
00:34:44Her focus is really there
00:34:47See Mama
00:34:48Mama knows best
00:34:50See Daddy
00:34:51Daddy knows best
00:34:53On those Mama Knows Best
00:34:54And we hear that boom boom
00:34:55I want to see a step forward
00:34:56You know really leaning into
00:34:58The audience on those moments
00:34:59Because it's kind of like
00:35:00The direct kind of
00:35:01You confronting them
00:35:01Yes
00:35:02See Mama
00:35:03Mama knows best
00:35:04See Daddy
00:35:05Daddy knows best
00:35:07So you're dedicating this
00:35:08To your mom

00:35:29To her mom
00:35:29I love the lineage
00:35:30Respect
00:35:31I wanted her to be herself
00:35:32I just felt like
00:35:33That's all you can bring
00:35:34Is yourself
00:35:34And I felt like
00:35:35God ordained this
00:35:36This is already predestined
00:35:37So regardless of
00:35:38Whatever happens
00:35:39I felt like she's a winner
00:35:41Mama knows best
00:35:42Yes
00:35:43Wow

00:36:00Like a storm in the sky
00:36:05How you gonna be played by your behavior

00:36:12How can I trust someone who's lying to me
00:36:13And so
00:36:14How I go
00:36:16And I said

00:43:43Ah
00:43:46I'm so happy to be here with you at Disney's Aulani Resort.
00:43:51This is what heaven looks like.
00:43:54Thank you, American Idol.
00:43:56It's so good to be back.
00:43:58Hey, hey.
00:44:02You're looking at a real world.
00:44:05Yeah.
00:44:10Kiki Palmer, Mickey and Minnie.
00:44:13Amazing.
00:44:15So fun.
00:44:17The best.
00:44:18Now, hold on for a second.
00:44:20So, just talking about Kiki, by the way, thank you for being here, for the mentorship that you're providing, the
00:44:26energy, the guidance you're giving.
00:44:28It's my pleasure.
00:44:29It's my pleasure.
00:44:31So, she can sing, obviously.
00:44:33She can dance.
00:44:34She can act.
00:44:36You also have a podcast.
00:44:37And I got to have you on my podcast.
00:44:39What is the name of the podcast?
00:44:40It's called Baby, This Is Kiki Palmer.
00:44:45And what is, what does Kiki Palmer talk about on Baby, This Is Kiki Palmer?
00:44:49Well, you know, I'm curious and I like to talk to icons such as yourself to learn how you got
00:44:53to be this way.
00:44:54But the fact that you called me an icon with Mickey next to me, that was very, very generous.
00:44:59Kiki Palmer, one more time, everybody.
00:45:02That was amazing.
00:45:04Coming up, the depth of the talent this year is off the charts and hoping to prove just that is
00:45:09Madison Moon.
00:45:11She takes the idle stage after the break, right after this.
00:45:16Let's go, Mickey.
00:45:29Looking good.
00:45:30Back with you on American Idol.
00:45:32We always love the backdrop here at Disney's Aulani Resort.
00:45:35What better place to chase the idol dream?
00:45:38Hoping to shine tonight.
00:45:39It's Madison Moon.
00:45:46Guys, look at it.
00:45:47Oh, my goodness.
00:45:48Every time we go somewhere, my family finds a sunset.
00:45:52Being able to do that in Hawaii means everything.
00:45:55Did you ever think you would be here?
00:45:57Literally doesn't even feel real.
00:45:59My dad got to join me in meeting Kiki Palmer and Brad Paisley.
00:46:03I feel like I kind of got my voice from my daddy.
00:46:05He is an excellent vocalist and he pours his heart and soul into it.
00:46:09He had a high school band.
00:46:11He got asked to be the lead singer of Pantera, which was dope.
00:46:15Would you want to sing a little something?
00:46:17I'll do it for her.
00:46:18He wanted to pursue it further, but he decided to give that up to raise a family.
00:46:24Don't stop believing.
00:46:27The world kind of missed out on him as a musician.
00:46:33Streetlights people.
00:46:39Oh, my gosh.
00:46:41You're so good.
00:46:41Oh, my gosh.
00:46:43Yes.
00:46:43It's a moment I'll never forget.
00:46:45What are you doing for us today?
00:46:47Since You've Been Gone, Kelly Clarkson.
00:46:49Okay.
00:46:49It's very bold, especially doing a song by a former idol.
00:46:53Since you've been gone, I can't breathe for the first time.
00:47:00I'm all about taking risks in this competition.
00:47:02I haven't played it safe, and I'm not going to.
00:47:05It's pretty crazy what's in the tank.
00:47:07You were feeling it and being fun and not taking it too seriously, but also giving in when it was
00:47:11time.
00:47:12And again and again and again.
00:47:16There was a moment with the note where I was like, uh-oh, how are you feeling about the big
00:47:20note?
00:47:20I wasn't really, you know, doing all the warm-ups and stuff today.
00:47:24Yeah.
00:47:24One thing that always helped me to be to lean in.
00:47:27If I go left, let me go all the way left.
00:47:30You know, it's never any mistakes because we don't really know what you was trying to do.
00:47:34I absolutely feel pressure.
00:47:35If I don't hit this note, I'm going home.
00:47:46Here's the thing, you started out friends.
00:47:50It was cool, but it was all pretend.
00:47:53Yeah, yeah.
00:47:56Soon to be gone.
00:47:59And all you'd ever hear me say is how I picture me with you.
00:48:05Oh, that's all you'd ever hear me say.
00:48:10Said you'd be gone.
00:48:14I can't breathe for the first time.
00:48:18I'm so moving on.
00:48:20Yeah, yeah.
00:48:22Thanks to you.
00:48:23Now I get what I want.
00:48:29Said you'd be gone.
00:48:30You were a chance to do it.
00:48:33Out of sight, out of sight, out of sight.
00:48:37Such a miracle, just can't take it.
00:48:41Again and again and again and again and again.
00:48:53I can't breathe for the first time.
00:48:57I'm so moving on.
00:49:00Yeah, yeah.
00:49:01Thanks to you.
00:49:03Now I get what I want.
00:49:25Since you've been gone.
00:49:30Since you've been gone.
00:49:34Since you've been gone
00:49:36Wow.
00:49:39Wow.
00:49:40Thank you, y'all.
00:49:43Taking on one of Idol's biggest voices, Dan, Barry Clarkson.
00:49:47Wow. Wow.
00:49:48Amazing to watch you and then us cut to your father,
00:49:50who was singing every lyric as well down there.
00:49:53It was brilliant.
00:49:53He was like...
00:49:55I love you, Daddy.
00:49:57What was that face you did?
00:50:00There it is.
00:50:03So, earlier today, I was, like, over in my room
00:50:06and I could hear this song kind of being played.
00:50:09I couldn't see anything, so I didn't really know,
00:50:11but I was like, I bet that's Madison.
00:50:14Like, that has to.
00:50:15She's the only one that I feel like could go for this
00:50:18and pull it off, and you did.
00:50:19I love your voice so much.
00:50:21I love that you're just you.
00:50:23You've got incredible pipes.
00:50:25That's a tall order song.
00:50:27Like, nobody wants to sing this song
00:50:29because it's really hard, and you tackled it.
00:50:35You just honestly blew my wig off my head, man.
00:50:40There's no doubt about it.
00:50:41When I tell you power, you have it in spades.
00:50:45I kept thinking at some point,
00:50:47okay, she's going to take a breath.
00:50:48She's going to come back down.
00:50:50Give her a moment.
00:50:51Girl, you stayed FM all the way through then.
00:50:54It was amazing.
00:50:55Amazing.
00:50:57Keep that mentality.
00:50:59Keep that rocker energy, pushing yourself,
00:51:04surprising us with what you can do.
00:51:06You went after that, and you nailed it.
00:51:08And like I said, you're the one that can do it.
00:51:11Be that person.
00:51:12Be that sign of it.
00:51:15You have such an incredible voice.
00:51:17She's so powerful.
00:51:18And I was nervous for a second.
00:51:19I'm like, is she going to hit that Kelly note
00:51:21that we know why don't nobody want to sing this song?
00:51:23And you did it.
00:51:25I've been a fan of American Idol since the beginning,
00:51:27and this season has some of the best singers
00:51:29I've seen in a really long time.
00:51:31And you're one of them.
00:51:35I think we're excited to see what you do next
00:51:37after all of that.
00:51:39What's that?
00:51:40What's going on with that tear there?
00:51:41What are you feeling?
00:51:42I'm just so happy.
00:51:43This is everything I want to do,
00:51:44and to see my family watching me
00:51:46and literally sobbing with me, it's insane.
00:51:48And I just respect all of you guys in this crowd.
00:51:50Thank you so much.

00:52:22as he takes the stage with Apologize.
00:52:25There's more idol than Hawaii actors.

00:52:33I love it.

00:52:48So keep them coming.
00:52:50Next to take the stage is Minnesota's Chris Tongsen.
00:52:57This morning, I woke up early and went to the spa.
00:53:01This is the first time ever being pampered.
00:53:03This is the best.
00:53:05I've been enjoying the princess treatment,
00:53:06but I don't think it's going to last very long.
00:53:08When I'm not here with American Idol,
00:53:10I'm working and I'm trying to pay bills.
00:53:13I don't really have a whole lot of downtime,
00:53:15so being in a spa for the first time was so nice.
00:53:18This round, I'll be singing Apologize by Warner Public.
00:53:21Classic.
00:53:22Yeah, classic.
00:53:23When I was about 12, 13,
00:53:25I would hop on my bike with my papers
00:53:27and do my paper out,
00:53:28and I'd listen to the song over and over and over again.
00:53:30I'm holding on your rope,
00:53:32got me 10 feet off the ground.
00:53:36This is one of the more intimate things somebody's done.
00:53:39Yeah.
00:53:39I want to make this one a little bit more fun,
00:53:41a song that people know,
00:53:42a song that people want to sing along to,
00:53:44but also with intimacy.
00:53:45But fun is different for everybody, right?
00:53:48Right.
00:53:48So we don't have to be everybody's version of fun.
00:53:50Exactly.
00:53:50But I think letting that hair down,
00:53:51I don't know what you're wearing,
00:53:53but a little unbuttoned, you know what I mean?
00:53:55Very handsome.
00:53:56So leaning into that appeal,
00:53:57I think with this song,
00:53:58will bring the funness that you're also looking to.
00:54:01Yeah, absolutely.
00:54:04Yes.
00:54:05There you go.
00:54:07I said it's too late to apologize.
00:54:11It's too late.
00:54:13She wants to make it fun.
00:54:15Well, in my mind,
00:54:16I want to see you lean into your image.
00:54:18Yeah.
00:54:19Yeah.
00:54:19I'm telling you,
00:54:21working everything you got.
00:54:22Are you doing that?
00:54:22I wish I could do that.
00:54:24I can't do that.
00:54:25I might have to take Kiki's advice
00:54:26and let my hair down
00:54:28and drop a button or two.
00:54:29That's it.
00:54:30That was giving.
00:54:31Yeah.
00:54:32Yeah.
00:54:33Yeah.
00:54:42I'm holding on your rope,
00:54:44got me ten feet off the ground.
00:54:49And I'm hearing what you say,
00:54:52but I just can't make a sound.
00:54:57You tell me that you need me.
00:55:00Then you go and cut me down.
00:55:03But when you tell me that you saw me,
00:55:08didn't think I'd turn around and say that it's too late to apologize.
00:55:20I said it's too late to apologize.
00:55:25It's too late.
00:55:33I want to say that song, boy.
00:55:37I'll take another chance,
00:55:39take a fall,
00:55:40take a shot for you.
00:55:44And I need you like a heart needs to be,
00:55:48but it's nothing new.
00:55:53I loved you.
00:55:54I loved you with the fire.
00:56:22I love you.
00:56:30I love you.
00:56:32I love you.
00:56:33I love you.
00:56:33I know it's too late to apologize.
00:56:35I love you.
00:56:37It's too late to apologize.
00:56:50Nice work, so you wanted to create some intimate moments in that performance, right?
00:56:54Yeah, absolutely.
00:56:55Lionel?
00:56:56So let me just tell you, the first verse, you were concentrating so hard you almost blew up.
00:57:03I'm telling you, you were just in every note.
00:57:05I'm thinking about it.
00:57:07I got to make it perfect.
00:57:08Second verse, you joined us.
00:57:12I mean, from that point on, you just kind of let go and delivered the goods.
00:57:17Enjoy that stage.
00:57:19You've got the gift.
00:57:20Thank you, Lionel.
00:57:24Chris, you have a great voice, but you also have a great vibe.
00:57:27And the way that you transformed the song, it was like, okay, I'm getting a Chris version of this song.
00:57:32And I think for me, I want to hear more of you to really get into that vibe of what
00:57:36makes Chris Chris.
00:57:37And so to Lionel's point, I want to see you get more comfortable.
00:57:39I want to see you get relaxed.
00:57:41I want to come into your world because I know that there's a lot there.
00:57:44Thank you, Kiki.
00:57:45Good job.
00:57:46Rosanna Wood?
00:57:47I love your voice so much.
00:57:50Like, you just have this gorgeous, like, laid-back vibrato.
00:57:55It doesn't sound like anybody else.
00:57:58One little thing, and I don't mean this weird, but you've got this mysterious sexy vibe going.
00:58:05And I feel like you need to know that.
00:58:08I like what you look sad.
00:58:10I thought I was the only one with the mysterious sexy vibe going.
00:58:13Oh, no, no.
00:58:15Come on, Luke.
00:58:16I mean this as a compliment.
00:58:18It's like one of your kind of, like, superpowers.
00:58:20And if you own that, I feel like they will just eat it up.
00:58:24I agree.
00:58:25Sorry if that was weird.
00:58:27You did work.
00:58:28I'm sorry.
00:58:28I love my husband.
00:58:29Yes.
00:58:31I'm just saying.
00:58:33Man, I want to hear that power you got.
00:58:35I want to, I want you to partner that voice with that sexy stuff that Carrie's bringing up.
00:58:42Which, I mean, hey, you know, I see it, dog.
00:58:44I see it.
00:58:47I know what she's talking about.
00:58:49Am I rambling, Ryan?
00:58:50Am I rambling?
00:58:51Look, he's making you nervous.
00:58:52He's so cute.
00:58:53I understand.
00:58:54But the main thing that's really important is I see you getting right up to the edge and just, man,
00:59:01just set yourself free and start singing.
00:59:03Let it go.
00:59:04There you go.

00:59:52He just did a beautiful rendition of your song, bro.
00:59:55I can't wait to hear.
00:59:56I was hearing a little bit of the warm-up earlier today.
00:59:58Ryan sent me a video.
00:59:59Oh, my word.
01:00:00Thank you so much.
01:00:01I appreciate you so much.
01:00:02I mean, this guy's a legend.
01:00:04Legend, right?
01:00:05Love you so much.
01:00:06Appreciate you.
01:00:07Peace.
01:00:08Mahalo.
01:00:10Awesome.
01:00:10Thanks, bro.
01:00:11Hit you later.
01:00:11Miss you.
01:00:11Bye-bye.
01:00:12That's freaking crazy.
01:00:14Oh, my word.
01:00:23Welcome back to American Idol from Aulani at Disney Resort and Spa in Koalina, Hawaii.
01:00:28And of our insanely talented finalists are lighting up the stage for your votes tonight.
01:00:32And earlier this week, they also had the pleasure of kicking back to enjoy some of their own
01:00:37Aulani time, right?
01:00:38Watch this.
01:00:40I always dreamed that my voice would bring me to places like this.
01:00:45And it happened.
01:00:49Being here in Hawaii has been so different from being back home.
01:00:52Just to see this part of the world, it is different.
01:00:55It doesn't matter how your heart is grieving, if you keep on believing, a dream that's
01:01:00This is the only one, it'll be my first only one ever.
01:01:05We're best buds now.
01:01:07It's just been so fun.
01:01:08The memories that we're making is just all unforgettable.
01:01:11This is really a dream come true.
01:01:18Look at how you just saw Ruby Rake cruising on the catamaran.
01:01:21And here she is now, coming face-to-face with Brad Paisley and Kiki.
01:01:27Watch.
01:01:31Being here has been great.
01:01:32I mean, I think I've definitely had some time to relax and soak up the sun.
01:01:36I've gotten to do some really cool things around the resort with my family.
01:01:39The Mickey waffles are like my favorite things ever.
01:01:42Cheers!
01:01:44There's characters everywhere.
01:01:46We saw Goofy and then Chip and Dale.
01:01:48It feels absolutely insane to make Top 20.
01:01:50I'm just, like, really excited and proud to be here.
01:01:53Hey!
01:01:53Hi there!
01:01:54What's up, Ruby Rake?
01:01:55For the beach round, I'm going to be singing Drag Me Down by One Direction.
01:01:58Why this song?
01:01:59I chose this song as kind of a thank you to my three older brothers because they were my biggest
01:02:04supporters when I was dealing with some mean girls back in middle school.
01:02:09I decided when I was 11 that it would be a fun idea to shave my head.
01:02:14So I had a buzz cut.
01:02:15I have some photos.
01:02:16Please show us.
01:02:17That's cool.
01:02:18Wow.
01:02:18I ended up, like, losing a lot of my friends because of it.
01:02:21Because of that?
01:02:22Yes.
01:02:22So my brothers, they had my back.
01:02:24And so this is, like, a thank you.
01:02:25Nobody can drag me down with their love.
01:02:27Okay.
01:02:28Oh, I love that.
01:02:30All my life you stood by me.
01:02:33It's an amazing thing that one of the most formative events of her life was a bullying for a really
01:02:39trivial thing.
01:02:39I think that's actually going to serve her.
01:02:42Use that experience to really grab this audience.
01:02:45It's certainly a song that embodies the hope and the struggle and that's great.
01:02:51Use that.
01:02:51This song does come from kind of a sad place, but I want to just stand strong and still, like,
01:02:56give a fun performance to watch.
01:03:08I'm not scared of the dark.
01:03:10You never seen it look so easy.
01:03:13I got a river for souls.
01:03:16And baby, you're a boat.
01:03:18Baby, you're my only reason.
01:03:20If I didn't have you, there would be nothing left.
01:03:23The shell of a man could never be his best.
01:03:26If I didn't have you, I'd never see the sun.
01:03:30You taught me how to be someone.
01:03:33Hey, all my life you stood by me when no one else was ever behind me.
01:03:41All these lights, they can't light me.
01:03:45With your love, nobody can drag me.
01:03:48All my life you stood by me when no one else was ever behind me.
01:03:55All these lights, they can't light me.
01:03:59With your love, nobody can drag me down.
01:04:04Nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody can drag me down.
01:04:11Nobody, nobody, nobody can drag me down.
01:04:16All these lights, they can't light me.
01:04:26With your love, nobody, nobody, nobody can drag me down.
01:04:39Nobody, nobody can drag me down.
01:04:46All these lights, they can't light me up.
01:04:56Nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody can drag me down.
01:05:10Way to go, the judges are on their feet after that.
01:05:14You are such a ray of sunshine.
01:05:17You're always got this gazillion watt smile,
01:05:19and like you can't help but smile watching you.
01:05:21I want to challenge you a little bit to like get,
01:05:24like find your sassy side.
01:05:26When you're singing, nobody can drag me down, you know.
01:05:29Gotta have a little sass in there.
01:05:30So I just want to challenge you to find that side of yourself
01:05:33and show it, bring it.
01:05:34All right. Let's go.
01:05:35So I thought for a moment when she started,
01:05:38I said she's going to run out of air because she's moving.
01:05:41I can hear her breathing.
01:05:43And then she hit that note and held it all evening.
01:05:46I know you were thinking.
01:05:47You were overthinking.
01:05:48Don't do it.
01:05:49You've got the goods.
01:05:50That was amazing that you kind of pulled that one out.
01:05:53I'm telling you.
01:05:53Yeah, thank you.
01:05:54It's 16, right?
01:05:55Yeah.
01:05:56That's disgusting.
01:05:58That's just disgusting.
01:05:59Yeah, first of all, it's incredible
01:06:01that you have a voice on you like that.
01:06:02The only thing that I would have wanted
01:06:03was to know that you were able to take your time with it
01:06:06and, you know, let the band catch up to you
01:06:08instead of you being a little bit in front of them.
01:06:10But these are small things that will go towards you
01:06:12in this competition just to make your performance better.
01:06:16And incredible job.
01:06:17Thank you so much.
01:06:17Yeah.
01:06:18Yeah.
01:06:19Yeah.
01:06:21Yeah, it's hard to get out of, like,
01:06:22a 16-year-old mentality, but you do have a great voice.
01:06:26It was really like a 16-year-old performance
01:06:29for the first time that we've seen out of you,
01:06:31which is, what is it, Lionel?
01:06:33It's disgusting.
01:06:34It's just disgusting.
01:06:35But you need to work on this.
01:06:37Like, you know, get in that mentality of, like,
01:06:39I'm going to get out here and, like,
01:06:41almost create a little alter ego
01:06:42where you got a little more angst in there.
01:06:45But I love your voice, and we know
01:06:47you've got all the goods in there.
01:06:49So thank you.
01:06:50Thank you so much.
01:06:51It's all good feedback.
01:06:53And every time you're up on the stage,
01:06:54you'll get better and better at all of that.
01:06:55Lots of thing about some good stuff there.

01:07:15beachside performances heading your way,

01:07:33Welcome back to American Idol.
01:07:35Keep those votes coming in for all your favorites
01:07:37online, via text, and on social media.
01:07:39Their lives in the competition depend on it.
01:07:42And JuliƔn Calero wants to stick around for a while.
01:07:45Here's his mentor meetup with Brad and Kiki.
01:07:49I was here two summers ago.
01:07:51My family and I were big Hawaii fans.
01:07:54We're also big Disney fans.
01:07:55And my favorite character is Stitch.
01:07:57Stitch!
01:07:59What's going on, buddy?
01:08:00I just think he's a little troublemaker.
01:08:02I love his voice.
01:08:03Ohana means family.
01:08:05Family means nobody gets left behind.
01:08:07So be back here at Disney's Aulani Resort.
01:08:10Feels like a blessing.
01:08:12There is just no such thing as a bad day in Hawaii.
01:08:17Hi.
01:08:17Hi, JuliƔn.
01:08:18For this round, I'm choosing a song called Tourniquet by Zach Bryan.
01:08:22There's a ways on the plains out of Eastern Montana
01:08:25where you told me you were leaving for a while.
01:08:27It means a lot to me.
01:08:28So why is that?
01:08:29Tourniquet to me means picking someone else up when they're hurting
01:08:33and always telling someone, I have your back.
01:08:35Well, if you need a tourniquet or if you want a tourniquet,
01:08:38know that I'll be by your side.
01:08:41What always heals my heart is thinking about the people
01:08:44that I have in my life.
01:08:45And what motivates me even more is hoping that whoever's listening
01:08:49gets that feeling that I understand, I see you.
01:08:52It felt very authentic.
01:08:53And so I think you're getting a real sense
01:08:55of who he is as an artist.
01:08:57You know, that's magic being this close.
01:08:59Great voice.
01:09:00You know, it's really captivating.
01:09:03Your prowess on the guitar shows.
01:09:05Your voice is perfect.
01:09:07Thank you so much.
01:09:08You're suited for that song.
01:09:09Sometimes when you're in a competition,
01:09:10it's like you're thinking about what's gonna do my voice the best.
01:09:13But if you just sing what's true to you,
01:09:14it somehow is most perfect.
01:09:17Music can feel like a hug.
01:09:18Music can feel like a hand on your back
01:09:20that tells you you're not alone.
01:09:22And that's what I'm trying to replicate with my performance.
01:09:42As it lays on the plains out of Eastern Montana,
01:09:45where you told me you were leaving from.
01:09:48You've been stabbed in the back in the rest of your body.
01:09:52Won't you tell me where you're bleeding from?
01:09:55Well, if you need a tourniquet or if you want to turn it quick,
01:09:58I know that I'll be by your side.
01:10:01Pledge your whole soul into things you can't control
01:10:04in a world you'll never satisfy.
01:10:08But I'll bandage up your body, your bones, and your bad days, too.
01:10:14Take care of the blood that your love runs through.
01:10:19I know all the damage some days in this dark world does.
01:10:25But you have been last eating something I dreamed of.
01:10:31Come on!
01:10:45I'll bandage up your body, your bones, and your bad days, too.
01:10:52Take care of the blood that your love runs through.
01:10:56oh and I know all the damage some days in this dark world but you left the last
01:11:05evening something I dreamed of, dreamed of there's delays on the plains out of
01:11:15Eastern Montana where you told me you were leaving from you've been stabbed in
01:11:21the back and the rest of your body won't you tell me where you're bleeding from
01:11:26won't you tell me where you're bleeding from
01:11:31yeah man
01:11:37yeah man
01:11:39Kulian!
01:11:40Well just listen to that
01:11:44Thank you
01:11:45What did you connect with in that song, what message?
01:11:48Well to me I wanted to, whenever I listen to a song like this I think of unconditional love
01:11:53whether it be for a friend, for someone you love and it just means that you're never going to leave
01:11:58their side
01:11:58their worst days and their best days I wanted it to feel like a hand on your back a hand
01:12:04you know that you can hold a hug just you know letting you know that you're never alone no matter
01:12:09how down you are
01:12:13I love you, that's all I'm going to say
01:12:15I love you

01:12:32up

01:12:35but you're delivering that hope when you look up during the performance and you flash us that smile

01:15:12Drew
01:15:13It's been fun having Drew here
01:15:14He has been by my side every step of the way
01:15:18Unfortunately, my son couldn't be here for this performance
01:15:20Because he had to go back to school
01:15:22Maybe on my next voyage I can meet him
01:15:23Okay, yes, for sure
01:15:27How you doing?
01:15:29Huge fan
01:15:30I'm a big fan of Kiki
01:15:31To see myself in front of her
01:15:32I was like, Mama, I made it
01:15:34I love that
01:15:35Well, Keela, I'm so excited
01:15:36What are you going to be singing?
01:15:37With a little help with my friend
01:15:38All right
01:15:39What drew you to this song?
01:15:41There was a time when I didn't feel like I was good enough
01:15:44You know, I didn't know where I was going
01:15:45I was confused
01:15:46God had to place friends around me
01:15:47I had that really helped me
01:15:48They were destiny helpers to me
01:15:50Helped me to my purpose and they pushed me
01:15:53What would you do if I sang?
01:15:56Hearing her sing, I didn't know what to expect
01:15:58And when her voice came out, it was just awesome
01:16:03It felt so truthful
01:16:04I'm a little help with my friends
01:16:08She seemed like, oh, this is a perfect singer
01:16:11Yeah, yeah, yeah
01:16:24Oh, that was a lot
01:16:26Oh, no, oh, no
01:16:27Don't do it to me
01:16:32That's first
01:16:32Such a special voice
01:16:36Such a special voice
01:16:47Wow
01:16:47That voice was ancestral, girl
01:16:50What you're doing is more than just singing
01:16:52You're embodying spirit through song
01:16:55That's beautiful
01:16:56Seriously
01:16:57Thank you
01:16:57It blew my mind when I sang for the mentors
01:17:00I'm humble and I'm grateful
01:17:01Because that just lets me know that
01:17:03No matter what I sang
01:17:04Somebody's gonna feel it
01:17:06And I want somebody to feel it
01:17:19What would you do if I sang out a tune?
01:17:25Would you stand up and walk out on me?
01:17:29Lend me away
01:17:31Oh, when I sang you a song
01:17:34And I would try
01:17:35Not to sing it out of key

01:19:35Oh, that was Partners.
01:19:51Wow.
01:19:55Wow.
01:19:58People have come out on their balconies at the hotel.
01:20:02Marine life is pop...
01:20:03Sea turtles are popping out up there going, what is...
01:20:06The fishes are going, what's happening up there on that stage?
01:20:10Oh, my God.
01:20:11What did just happen, Lionel?
01:20:13What was that?
01:20:14I have never...
01:20:16Running on the stage.
01:20:16I have never, ever, I've been on American Idol since I was that big.
01:20:27I have never had any contestant walk out on this stage and tear the place up.
01:20:35The place got blown up.
01:20:38Thank you, Lionel.
01:20:39That Janis Joplin sounding, Tina Turner sounding, I don't know who you are.
01:20:47But that right there was the greatest performance I have ever seen on this stage.
01:20:57That's ridiculous.
01:20:59Lionel had to bring me back to life, Tina.
01:21:01You know what I'm saying.
01:21:03He had to resuscitate me up in the place.
01:21:07Yes, ma'am.
01:21:07But the last time I've seen somebody make me feel like this and get people turned up like
01:21:11this, her name was Fantasia Burrito.
01:21:13Watch out.
01:21:14Watch out.
01:21:14Watch out.
01:21:15And she won American Idol.
01:21:17And I'ma just leave that there and tell America there's a lot of favorites and y'all need to
01:21:22vote.
01:21:22Vote.
01:21:23Vote, y'all.
01:21:24Because, Kila, what you just did right there, girl, you a bad girl and I'm not touching you.
01:21:29Thank you, Kiki.
01:21:30Bless you.
01:21:31I ain't never seen this before.
01:21:33Lionel.
01:21:35The thing that I love about you is I feel like you don't think about what you're doing as
01:21:43it's happening.
01:21:44Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.
01:21:44Like it just flows out of you.
01:21:47You were in the moment.
01:21:48You were having fun with the audience.
01:21:50Like it was like just pouring out.
01:21:52It was like from the heavens to Kila and then out to us.
01:21:56Thank you, Kari.
01:21:57Thank you so much, Kari.
01:22:01And who?
01:22:04I don't know.
01:22:07Do you remember when I kind of gave you a couple of little singing lessons in the audition?
01:22:12I do.
01:22:13I do.
01:22:14Why did you let me do that to you?
01:22:18You were just being kind to me.
01:22:20Yes, yes.
01:22:21Yes, yes.
01:22:21Thank you for allowing me that time.
01:22:24But I hereby relinquish my vocal lessons to you.
01:22:28Oh, my God.
01:22:28I don't need to even say nothing to you.
01:22:31Nothing.
01:22:31You got Lionel.
01:22:32He done wore a trench in the run.
01:22:34I ain't never seen nothing like that before.
01:22:36Ever.
