American Idol - Season 24 - Episode 06: Hollywood Week In Music City 2
Transcript
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
00:01:29Brayden
00:01:32Chris
00:01:38and Chloe
00:01:44This is something we are charged with doing, so
00:01:50Front Row
00:01:50Front Row
00:01:52You should be very proud of how far you've come.
00:01:57But for now, your journey
00:02:02is not over yet.
00:02:05You're going through to the next round.
00:02:08Back Row, thank you so much for your talent.
00:02:15So five more hopefuls can celebrate in the all-new Golden Room.
00:02:19Holy crap.
00:02:21How 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.
00:02:37It 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, and six feet's never found so far.
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, 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.
00:03:26I 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.
00:04:16Don't try to change my mind.
00:04:21I'm being cruel to be kind.
00:04:24I can't love you in the dark.
00:04:34It feels like we're oceans apart.
00:04:41Oh, there's so much space between us.
00:04:48Baby, we're already defeated.
00:04:52Hey, hey, 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 word to me that you are in my life.
00:05:16I want to live and not to survive.
00:05:27That's why I can't love you in the dark
00:06:08There's so many things I want to say that I was trying to kick you out of the room because
00:06:12I'm so jealous of you
00:06:13but your first note Carrie started drawing hearts everywhere
00:06:19and what a pro dynamic of singing and 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
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
00:06:49Usually when I take the stage it takes a couple songs for me to get comfortable
00:06:52so it's such a challenge this week because you only have one shot to really be authentic to who you
00:06:58are
00:06:59I grew up in Indianapolis, Indiana
00:07:01My mom sang worship in the church and we would sing together
00:07:06so that's kind of like where my love for music came from is my mom
00:07:09I moved almost eight years ago to Nashville
00:07:12I actually came to Belmont
00:07:14came here for maybe 60 days
00:07:17but we are still alumni as if we're here for 60 days
00:07:20This week I'm singing Human by The Killers
00:07:25The song is a little bit more lively
00:07:28I'm not gonna have a guitar in my hand so it's not really in my comfort zone
00:07:32Um, how are you feeling?
00:07:34A little nervy
00:07:35You nervous?
00:07:35But I get that a little bit
00:07:36But this is a really great opportunity for me to really show
00:07:41I can also be free-spirited and fun and joyful in my performance
00:07:47So I'm ready to step out on that stage
00:07:51Okay
00:07:56I did my best to notice
00:07:59When the call came down to one
00:08:02Up to the platform of surrender
00:08:07I was broad but I was kind
00:08:10Sometimes I get nervous
00:08:14When I see an open door
00:08:17Close your eyes
00:08:20Clear your heart
00:08:23Cut the cord
00:08:26Are we here?
00:08:30Or are we dancers?
00:08:54Will your sister be alright?
00:08:59Will you help me down at night?
00:09:02Or are we dancers?
00:09:02There's no message we're receiving
00:09:05Don't you know it's in your heart beating
00:09:11Are we human?
00:09:14Are we dancers?
00:09:19My sight is vital
00:09:22My hands are cold
00:09:24And the Almighty is looking for the answer
00:09:32Are we human?
00:09:35Or are we dancers?
00:09:39Are we human?
00:09:43Or are we dancers?
00:09:55You got such a cool voice, Kendall.
00:09:58Thank you so much.
00:09:59And I love how at this time you switched it up
00:10:01And you kind of gave us this pop rock vibe
00:10:03That you know it was a lot more energetic
00:10:06And you felt comfortable in both spaces
00:10:08So I think you should be really proud of that
00:10:11Thank you so much.
00:10:13I love her.
00:10:14I love her.
00:10:15I love her.
00:10:15That voice she got.
00:10:16Oh my God.
00:10:17I love her.
00:10:17It's cool and she's comfortable.
00:10:18She's so comfortable.
00:10:21I can.
00:10:22I'm going to cry.
00:10:23Because.
00:10:25I'm going to cry.
00:10:26Because 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 to survive the first round of cuts.
00:10:41Would the following people please step forward?
00:10:45Jessie.
00:10:47Kendall.
00:10:50You are still in the running to become the next American Idol.
00:10:53Come on.
00:10:56Come on.
00:10:58Come on.
00:10:59Come on.
00:11:00Come on.
00:11:02Come on.
00:11:03Come on.
00:11:03Come on.
00:11:03Tonight has just been the best night of my life.
00:11:07So proud of you man.
00:11:08I just can't believe it.
00:11:10I'm so excited.
00:11:11I am so excited.
00:11:13And I'm so grateful that this just happened right now.
00:11:20Tonight, the Hollywood Week Music City Takeover comes to a close.
00:11:25Music City.
00:11:26What'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.
00:11:35I 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.
00:11:55We have some sing-offs.
00:12:01Carrie, how is Hollywood Week in Music City going?
00:12:05Hollywood Week in Music City is exciting and it's drama and it's stressful.
00:12:09It's very difficult because we gotta 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, so 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.
00:12:39Kind of left everything behind.
00:12:40And so I want to stay really bad.
00:12:49I 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 run out of my hands.
00:13:03Well, girl, I couldn't have been more right.
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.
00:13:21Yeah, I knew you'd be pissed off over me.
00:13:24And I'd just be hung over you.
00:13:28And I didn't need to take them off.
00:13:31No.
00:13:31I woke up in my booze this morning.
00:13:41Thank you, thank you.
00:13:43I 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.
00:13:51Like, getting ready to, like, bust out of the cage.
00:13:53Easy, easy, easy.
00:13:54It was easy.
00:13:55Slow down, slow down, slow down.
00:13:56It was good.
00:13:57It was good.
00:13:59Thank y'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.
00:14:16I'm going to be singing I Can't Make You Love Me by Bonnie Raitt.
00:14:19Good song.
00:14:20And I want to be the next American Idol
00:14:21because I want to show that your story, your pain,
00:14:25can 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.
00:14:57And 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.
00:15:14I'm really pushing myself with this one.
00:15:17It 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.
00:15:32But 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. Turn down the bed. Turn down these voices inside my head.
00:15:53Lay down with me. Tell me no lies. Just hold me close. Don't patronize me.
00:16:08Don't patronize. Don't patronize me.
00:16:15Cause I can make you love me if you don't.
00:16:23And you can make your heart feel something in love.
00:16:31Here in the dark.
00:16:35In these final hours.
00:16:39I will lay down my heart.
00:16:43And I'll feel the power.
00:16:47But you won't.
00:16:50No, you won't.
00:16:52Don't patronize me.
00:16:54Cause I can make you love me.
00:17:01If you don't.
00:17:05If you don't.
00:17:08If you don't.
00:17:21Thank you so much.
00:17:24You've got to 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.
00:18:15I 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.
00:18:24And I'm not ready to go home, not at all.
00:18:28Why am I so nervous?
00:18:29I know, right?
00:18:31Not easy.
00:18:33Cutter.
00:18:36Julian.
00:18:37Julian.
00:18:39You are still chasing that American Idol dream.
00:18:50Is it a whirlwind for you?
00:18:52It's more than a whirlwind.
00:18:54It's magic.
00:18:54It's actual magic.
00:18:55I don't think my heart's ever been this full in my entire life.
00:19:03Welcome back to American Idol where Professor Kerry'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.
00:19:19And then I was hearing some that I was like, what's happening right now?
00:19:23So I'm kind of like, I'm it.
00:19:27I heard it too.
00:19:29I heard it too.
00:19:30I heard it too.
00:19:30I'm just not sure that was the right song.
00:19:31She only won this.
00:19:32She knows.
00:19:33You're not included in the discussion.
00:19:39But Mr. Bryan seems to have been given a whole pass.
00:19:43It was a little shaky to start.
00:19:44I think make sure you do songs that really showcase that grit that you have.
00:19:49Thank you so much.
00:19:52Why don't they boo you?
00:19:53You know, I'm trying to get booed.
00:19:56Ask him.
00:19:56You're not going to boo him?
00:19:59You're not going to boo Luke?
00:20:04I'm getting used to it.
00:20:06I'm getting used to it.
00:20:08Hoping to get on Kerry's good side by living up to his name.
00:20:15Is 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.
00:20:26And 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.
00:20:33It shows my personality and how I like to move around and perform.
00:20:37It's more about being true instead of being 100%.
00:20:40Well, go have some fun.
00:20:41Be you.
00:20:42And let's get it done.
00:20:43Come on, y'all.
00:20:49Something's going wrong.
00:20:51Someone's on the phone line.
00:20:53Three o'clock in the morning.
00:20:56Yeah, yeah.
00:20:59Talking 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.
00:21:11Make you do it right.
00:21:13Yeah.
00:21:15Love can make you do it wrong.
00:21:19Yeah.
00:21:20More for love, I said.
00:21:21Woo!
00:21:23All right.
00:21:25All I have to say is
00:21:27Love and Happiness
00:21:29Come on!
00:21:32Love and Happiness
00:21:37Love and Happiness
00:21:39Love and Happiness
00:21:49Woo!
00:21:59Hallelujah!
00:22:06Well, your name is True the Star.
00:22:10Yes, it was.
00:22:10And you get a band
00:22:11and then you start getting choreography
00:22:13and swagger.
00:22:17But the song didn't necessarily show everybody
00:22:20how great and dynamic your voice is,
00:22:23but it showed us
00:22:24how dynamic you are
00:22:26as an artist.
00:22:28Keep being yourself.
00:22:29Yeah!
00:22:33The adrenaline is pumping right now.
00:22:35I've had a breath.
00:22:37But it was good.
00:22:38The song just kind of...
00:22:40No, it's the wrong song.
00:22:41Yeah.
00:22:43While True waits to see
00:22:44if his authenticity
00:22:45keeps him at the top of the class,
00:22:47the pressure is on for Sheldon
00:22:49who hopes to do the same.
00:22:51The new thing I've discovered about Idol
00:22:53is that it's really stripping me
00:22:55right back to basics.
00:22:57I've done a lot of TV shows
00:22:59and I've always completely covered up
00:23:00in a mask and it's avant-garde.
00:23:02There's crystals and diamonds,
00:23:03sequins, big gowns, big dresses.
00:23:05This is the most stripped-back, vulnerable version
00:23:09of myself ever.
00:23:12For this round, I'll be singing
00:23:14Good Luck Babe by Chapel Run.
00:23:16The vocal in this performance
00:23:18is 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
00:23:28and it cracked bad, real bad.
00:23:32Am I freaking out about it?
00:23:34Yeah, it's definitely in my head.
00:23:36Just take a break.
00:23:37Take a breath.
00:23:38Just relax.
00:23:39Trust that you know
00:23:40what you're doing up there.
00:23:42Beating myself up a little bit over it.
00:23:43Maybe it's because
00:23:44I don't have everything on.
00:23:46Maybe it's because
00:23:46I'm doing something completely different,
00:23:48but I've come a long way.
00:23:50This is like the side of me
00:23:52that I've kept away from a lot of people.
00:23:54I'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,
00:24:17but you know the truth
00:24:19and guess I'm the fool.
00:24:24With your arms out like an angel
00:24:26through the chorus on you.
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.

00:26:28I mean, I've done this a lot of times
00:26:29And of all the shows I've been on
00:26:30This is the biggest 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 gonna have to sweat it out
00:26:50In the golden room
00:26:51For a little longer
00:26:57True
00:27:01You'll be joining them all, sir
00:27:13My heart's going crazy
00:27:15American Idol
00:27:16Have the best of the best

00:27:17With the best of the best
00:27:19I feel like this is destiny
00:27:20This is all I'll make to be
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
00:27:24Until the wheels fall off
00:27:30Audience on your feet
00:27:32Make some noise for Jason
00:27:34Back in our city auditions
00:27:37Jason's team helped him
00:27:38Knock it out of the park
00:27:40I'm here with the Texas Tailgaters
00:27:42Which is entertainment baseball
00:27:43Ow!
00:27:45I got into it actually as a singer
00:27:46Going forward
00:27:47It's just taking this part of you seriously
00:27:51And now in Hollywood Week
00:27:53He must prove himself on his own
00:27:55If you're calling back
00:27:57My heart is still yours
00:28:00I should have listened to it a little more
00:28:03On those choruses
00:28:04Make sure you enunciate through them
00:28:07On those big notes
00:28:08The devil's in the details
00:28:10And I still love you
00:28:16Jason
00:28:16This is the end of your American Idol journey
00:28:20I think my buddies would be more than proud of me
00:28:22I gave everything I had
00:28:25That's all I can do
00:28:26And for so many others
00:28:27Giving 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
00:28:42Like 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 rock to our lives
00:28:50But maybe I didn't
00:28:51My body language didn't say it
00:28:53You know, I tried my hardest
00:28:55But it wasn't enough
00:29:05But for Julianne, she ends her journey with a risk that didn't pay off
00:29:11Performing her original song
00:29:13And I'm close to the end
00:29:14Julianne, I am sorry to tell you that your American Idol journey ends right now
00:29:20Pick 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 gonna keep writing music and this has inspired me and I hope that my song could inspire other people
00:29:35I wanna 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
00:29:45When you're on a stage like this
00:29:47Is when you sing a song that somebody's just been waiting to hear
00:29:52A song that somebody loves
00:29:53And you crush it
00:29:55Make some noise here, 22-year-old
00:29:58Moor!
00:30:01Moor!
00:30:02Moor!
00:30:03What's up, everybody?
00:30:04I'm Moor
00:30:05I'm gonna 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 Moor in the past
00:30:15I'm a songwriter at heart
00:30:16And my audition was nothing short of a blessing
00:30:22You were taken from me years ago
00:30:25Someone I never got to know
00:30:27I was able to sing my original song
00:30:30And that meant a lot to me
00:30:32That writing was very cool
00:30:34Thank you so much
00:30:35Very, very cool
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
00:30:39Because music has healed me
00:30:40There's definitely moments where I have doubts
00:30:42Whether this is the right choice or not
00:30:43Head on up
00:30:44Yes
00:30:45Especially a song that you wrote that no one knows
00:30:47He's no band?
00:30:48No band
00:30:48It's original
00:30:49It puts a lot of weight on the performance itself
00:30:53This song's called How to Love You
00:31:00I thought I knew what I was doing
00:31:05When I met you
00:31:10I thought I knew where I was headed
00:31:14We were here today
00:31:19You're saying words but they won't reach my end
00:31:27Can't fix it now
00:31:31When you're already picturing the end
00:31:39And I'm lost on how to love you
00:31:48Oh, I'm lost on how to love you
00:31:56It's good though
00:31:57Oh, and I can't go on without you
00:32:07And I'm wondering when I'll find you
00:32:11Will I find myself
00:32:18Cause I'm lost on how to love you
00:32:30Thank you guys so much
00:32:33Oh my gosh
00:32:34I feel you guys are gonna boo me
00:32:37You're gonna boo me
00:32:38It's coming
00:32:40Just bring it on
00:32:41I love it
00:32:44Your booze are feeding me
00:32:48In a room like this
00:32:49For you to bring an original song
00:32:51With that incredible band sitting behind you
00:32:54Like twiddling their thumbs
00:32:55I feel like it was just a missed opportunity
00:32:57And I love your voice
00:33:00Thank you
00:33:01I love you
00:33:01I understand
00:33:02I understand
00:33:03Thank you though

00:33:06Being in an intimate room with you
00:33:09Like that
00:33:09And listening to
00:33:10You know
00:33:11You tell your story
00:33:13I feel like you took a risk here
00:33:15And
00:33:21It paid off
00:33:22Thank you
00:33:25I don't forget my decision
00:33:27I love being able to do that song
00:33:28For all those people

00:41:59come on girl
00:42:01you know what's driving me nuts

00:42:13all of these lines across my face
00:42:18tell you the stories of who I am
00:42:23so many stories of where I've been
00:42:27and I know 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've come to cross the mountains

00:43:00I've crossed all the lines and I'm your father
00:43:05and I've broken them up
00:43:07maybe I've broken them all for you
00:43:10maybe I broke them all for you
00:43:16maybe I broke them all for you
00:43:21Oh
00:43:53Well, you had this energy around you that you just feel like you want to be on stage like owning
00:43:59the moment and
00:44:00You should be very very happy. Good job
00:44:08Oh my god, I was so cool
00:44:11They set up let's go. Her voice is like
00:44:15Got that rock kind of yes, she was clear good
00:44:19I feel like I won luke over a little bit. I feel really good about that and my nail just
00:44:24popped off perfect timing
00:44:29Next and hoping her dreams will take flight is belmont student jackie bluebird from the quad to hollywood week
00:44:35Just like that i'm so fast every thought about auditioning for american idol
00:44:41Yes, yes, I would love to you have class. I do but like this is more
00:44:45important to me a week ago if you told me I was doing american idol
00:44:48I wouldn't have believed you because I didn't even know I was auditioning, but I'm just grateful to be here
00:44:53in the first place
00:44:54Did you forget about me?
00:44:56I will be singing you ought to know by Alanis Morrison. I hope the judges see my potential as an
00:45:01artist and a performer
00:45:03I'm just so excited to show them where I have some more preparation than my audition with them initially
00:45:08Now i'm here to remind you of the mess you left when you went away
00:45:17Its not fair to deny me
00:45:22Its not fair
00:45:23It's not fair to deny me
00:45:26Its not fair to deny me
00:45:27Its not fair to deny me
00:45:28I don't know
00:45:33of the mess that you left when you went away
00:45:37Its not fair
00:45:39Is not fair to deny me
00:45:55There's a lot of really great performers, so I'm just glad that I went out there and did my best
00:46:00Way to own your moment. Just remember make sure you land the vocals all the way, but you should be
00:46:06very very proud. Good job
00:46:15As the night goes on the judges are feeling the weight of some tough decisions
00:46:21I
00:46:23Thread the band-aid off
00:46:31Genevieve and Jason
00:46:36You're still in the mix
00:46:40Jackie you're not going through
00:46:45The fact that I made it this far i'm really grateful and yeah, I had a great time
00:46:53I'm a little bit in disbelief right now. I hope this will give you this top 30 because there are
00:46:58so many good people
00:47:02Stay tuned as more early favorites take the stage a voice that will become so recognizable
00:47:09In years to come as we get even closer to naming our top 30
00:47:14Some of us are going home
00:47:16It's hard. There are people that are really good that we are having to send home
00:47:21We got more bloodshed coming. We have some singles
00:47:28Welcome back to idol where the night's final group of hopefuls are taking the stage
00:47:32Feeling nervous
00:47:36Feeling nervous
00:47:37Aren't you bored
00:47:38With your quiet voice
00:47:41Wow

00:47:55You
00:47:57Let
00:47:58Let
00:47:59Watch
00:47:59I got it going
00:48:04And into the voice of the man
00:48:12It's your star then
00:48:25I'm seeing authenticity, I'm seeing style, I'm seeing uniqueness and that's what it takes to do well in this competition.
00:48:34That was solid, solid.
00:48:37Up next and here to inspire others is Mississippi voice teacher Daniel Stallworth.
00:48:45Music City, what's up Nashville?
00:48:48To make the top 30 will mean a lot to me.
00:48:50It will help me keep pushing the narrative to never stop believing.
00:48:53I'm doing this for my students to let them know that you can reach your goals, never give up.
00:48:58How lucky are the kids to have you?
00:49:00That's exactly right.
00:49:02I didn't really expect them to react the way that they did.
00:49:05It made me feel like, yes, I can believe that I'm a star.
00:49:08All right, make sure you can hear yourself down there, check those wages out and then we'll go.
00:49:11On Hollywood week I'm going to perform Stand By Me.
00:49:18I'm not used to performing on a stage this big, going straight in, diving in head first.
00:49:24I'm going to definitely keep the energy and sing like I'll never sing again.
00:49:28Y'all clap your hands, come on.
00:49:32When the night has come
00:49:37And the land is dark
00:49:40And the moon is the only light we'll see

00:51:20While Daniel will have to stand by
00:51:23For results
00:51:24Brooks hopes he can do enough to stand out
00:51:28I've never performed on a stage
00:51:30I've never performed in front of anyone besides friends and family
00:51:33So I'm very excited
00:51:35But I'm also still very nervous
00:51:38I come from a musical family
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
00:51:52I was very shy
00:51:54Awkward
00:51:58I started playing soccer around age six
00:52:00That kind of led to making friends
00:52:03And from that point on
00:52:05Soccer was my life
00:52:07My dream for soccer was always to go pro
00:52:09To 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
00:52:27In 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 in what he loved
00:52:41And 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
00:52:56Well stop doing that
00:53:00I just want to hear more
00:53:02I've never been willing to take chances and opportunities
00:53:05But this holds the future that I want
00:53:08All right
00:53:09Let's see what they think about him
00:53:11All right
00:53:12Here we go
00:53:31I will find myself walking down the road alone
00:53:40Just like a rolling stone
00:53:47There's this hope that is burning in my soul
00:53:52And 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
00:54:13Well this wind stirs up the hurricane
00:54:20And it keeps on pouring down tears of pain
00:54:28Cause I am lost amongst these north country stars
00:54:34Where you find me and lead me on home
00:54:42There's this pain that is coursing through my veins
00:54:48The pain is the hurt I've had since I left of you
00:54:53And 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
00:55:49And to be some of the first ears to ever hear it
00:55:53Is pretty special
00:55:55When you have this unique voice
00:55:58Paired with these songs that are gonna happen in your life
00:56:01It's gonna 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
00:56:15It felt good
00:56:17Our judges now have to decide
00:56:20Who in this final group of the original
00:56:22127 singers in Hollywood Week
00:56:25Will make it to the golden room
00:56:26And the chance to move on to the top 30
00:56:31Bricks
00:56:38Bricks
00:56:39You're going through to the next round
00:56:41And I know for us to go
00:56:47We gotta lick
00:56:48Bella
00:56:50Daniel Stallworth
00:56:52You're
00:56:54Defining your own
00:56:57As long as you know
00:56:58You'll be joining them also
00:57:00I hope you learn
00:57:02If I roll your heart
00:57:03Wherever you touch
00:57:05Your team's gonna fall
00:57:07Just don't let you pick your life
00:57:10I just got a yes
00:57:11That's crazy
00:57:12What is it?
00:57:15What is it?
00:57:15What is it?
00:57:16What is it?
00:57:16What is it?
00:57:18I'm overjoyed
00:57:19I'm overjoyed
00:57:20I mean I had my doubts
00:57:21But
00:57:23I guess they liked me enough
00:57:24So
00:57:25Good job
00:57:26You're so good
00:57:27Thank you
00:57:28Thank you
00:57:29Thank you so much
00:57:31My fans
00:57:38How are we doing gang?
00:57:39What's up?
00:57:40Hey
00:57:42What's happening?
00:57:43Give yourselves a round of applause
00:57:44For those great performances out there
00:57:48There are 60 of you here in this room
00:57:51And the judges said
00:57:52Only 30 of you
00:57:54Will go on to that next round
00:57:55Right now
00:57:57They're actually deliberating
00:57:59With the task of having to cut so many hopefuls
00:58:02The judges review the performances to pare it down to just 30
00:58:06It's hard
00:58:07There are people that are really good that we are having to send home
00:58:11Soon you'll be called back into the theater
00:58:14So when you are called back in
00:58:16Just be aware anything can happen
00:58:19Everyone's fighting for their lives in here
00:58:21It's chaos
00:58:21I 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
00:58:38As the judges decide who will make it through to the top 30
00:58:43It's so hard having to cut this menu y'all
00:58:46It's a big cut
00:58:47Hopefully we are making the right decisions
00:58:50Well I feel like I'm going to throw up
00:58:52Who knows I might puke
00:58:53I 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
00:58:58With the judges decisions made
00:59:00The singers return to the theater
00:59:02To 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
00:59:13And it's nothing that we take lightly
00:59:18I mean you're all here for a reason
00:59:20It's because you're really good
00:59:21And if a couple of you kind of occupied the same space
00:59:25We definitely had to look at that
00:59:27So we have some sing-offs
00:59:30Oh
00:59:31That we're going to ask you to do
00:59:33And I'm going to deliver
00:59:35The 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
00:59:50Where's the Garner
00:59:51Where's the Garner's
00:59:52Jason
00:59:54Michael
00:59:54The two Garner's
00:59:55You're in a sing-off together
00:59:57So we got a slot
00:59:59One of you will have it
01:00:00You are dismissed
01:00:01So you can go work on your song
01:00:03That 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
01:00:22And Chloe Lauren
01:00:24Alright, so it'll be you guys
01:00:26Y'all are in the sing-off
01:00:27Alright
01:00:28Go work on your songs
01:00:30Bring your A-game
01:00:32While the sing-off duos leave to prepare
01:00:35The remaining finalists
01:00:36Will now be called up in groups to find out
01:00:39Who has earned their place in the top 30

01:01:16I mean, it means everything
01:01:19Whatever you do
01:01:21Do not give up on your dreams
01:01:23But I can see
01:01:25Especially the dreams
01:01:26Behind your eyes
01:01:27Of becoming an American Idol
01:01:30Because
01:01:32You're still with us
01:01:34You're in the top 30
01:01:35All your beautiful colors

01:01:55Jacob
01:01:57To be in the top 30, you know, that's what's going to get me to that next level.
01:02:01Zaya.
01:02:02I mean, that is everything I could ever dream of.
01:02:05Trace.
01:02:06It would change my life.
01:02:08Moral.
01:02:09I'm a little nervous because this is the big moment.
01:02:11Julia.
01:02:13It 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 going to 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 it this far, I did everything I could.
01:02:36I hate to admit I still care about you.
01:02:39A little disappointed, but I'll be back.
01:02:43Love you, Gary.
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.
01:02:50And you 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.
01:03:05Something about him can't seem to let go.
01:03:08Brooks.
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.
01:03:23And 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.
01:03:52Wake up.
01:03:53You're an American Idol.
01:03:55Top 30.
01:03:57Lonnie.
01:04:00I want to make it to the top 30 more than absolutely anything.
01:04:04Royale.
01:04:06I don't know how the judges are going to 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 a bad.
01:04:14Drew the star.
01:04:16I definitely would love to be the next American Idol for sure.
01:04:20You feel 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 going to 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.
01:04:48I 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.
01:05:03Wherever I go.
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.
01:05:19I would love nothing more than to be a part of those 30 singers that make it.
01:05:24Let's just hope.
01:05:25Hope and pray.
01:05:26Hannah.
01:05:29Ruby Ray.
01:05:31I really want to.
01:05:32I really want to make it.
01:05:33That would be like the ultimate dream come true.
01:05:36Jackie Lee.
01:05:38Brenna 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.
01:06:02But.
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'm feeling all of the feelings.
01:06:15I'm so excited.
01:06:16I'm so ready for this journey.
01:06:19Wow.
01:06:20Speechless.
01:06:22I'm moving on.
01:06:23I'm so excited.
01:06:24Top 30.
01:06:26I'm top 30.
01:06:27It's great news for the 28 who have survived Hollywood week.
01:06:32But four hopefuls remain to fight for the last two spots of our top 30.
01:06:37Well, you know, you always told me you do well 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 going to be in this thing off my journal and it automatically shot up
01:06:48and I was like, I got this.
01:06:50You feel good?
01:06:51Yeah.
01:06:51Feel confident?
01:06:52No, no.
01:06:58Welcome back to Hollywood week.
01:07:00We got 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.
01:07:12We're very similar, not only with our tones, but also personalities.
01:07:18So I'm kind of just like, dang.
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.
01:07:29I'm Jason Garner.
01:07:30Do you know him?
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 going to give you a shot.
01:07:49What you do with your voice is definitely beyond 16.
01:07:53Like I look at you and I see my son and I would not throw him in the middle of
01:08:01it.
01:08:01It's a yes for me.
01:08:04Miss Carrie, I just want to say, I'm going to 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.
01:08:15You 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.
01:08:30Take your vocals and your performances really serious at this point.
01:08:34And in Hollywood week, he made a believer out of caring.
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, boy.
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.
01:08:57Just 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?
01:09:05No, no.
01:09:05I'm pretty sure.
01:09:06I'm pretty sure.
01:09:06You gotta sing for their life.
01:09:08Let's bring them out.
01:09:09Yeah, let's get them in here.
