The competition keeps getting hotter on AMERICAN IDOL XIV! Last night, host Ryan Seacrest revealed the Top Four finalists - Clark Beckham, Nick Fradiani, Jax and Rayvon Owen - who will move one note closer to winning the competition. Tyanna Jones from Jacksonville, FL, was eliminated.

Also this evening on IDOL, country legend Martina McBride turned up the heat, performing her hit single "Over the Rainbow." McBride mentored the ladies this week, while Jay DeMarcus from Rascal Flatts mentored the guys. Additionally, former IDOL judge and rock 'n' roll legend, Steven Tyler, stopped by the iconic Blackbird Studios in Nashville, TN, to give the contestants some advice. Plus, stepping out from behind the judges' table, Harry Connick, Jr. took center stage and performed "City Beneath the Sea."

Next week, with the stakes higher than ever, the finalists will perform three songs each - one a judges' pick, one Scott Borchetta's pick and the third is the contestant's own pick to sing as a tribute to his or her hometown. Tune in Wednesday, May 6 (8:00-10:00 PM ET live/PT tape-delayed) to see the Top Four return to their hometowns for the iconic IDOL homecoming, as well as which finalists make it to the Top Three and are heading to the finale.
