Elise Testone Videos

America gave viewers the shocker of the season when voters put Jessica Sanchez, Joshua Ledet, and Elise Testone into the bottom three.

On Thursday we found out that '80s night didn't turn out to be so awesome for DeAndre Brackensick, as the judges once again chose to not use their one save of the season on a contestant in jeopardy.

Erika Van Pelt was eliminated last night on AMERICAN IDOL after she received the fewest votes among the finalists. After her final performance, the three judges declined the opportunity to use their 'save' to keep Van Pelt on the show.

The Top 11 is now the Top 10 on Fox's AMERICAN IDOL. Following one of the most brutal cuts of the entire season - the one that determines who's going on the summer tour - 'hot, humid, and happening' teenager Shannon Magrane was sent home on Thursday night.

On last night's episode of Fox's AMERICAN IDOL, finalist Elise Testone chose to sing the classic Al Green song 'Let's Stay Together', a tune that President Obama recently sang at a fundraising event at Harlem's famed Apollo Theater. The show's producers decided to show a split-screen duet featuring the 28-year old New Jersey contestant and the President crooning the number.

On last night's episode of AMERICAN IDOL, viewer's votes and the Idol judges chose the Top 13 contestants who will remain in the competition.

On last night's episode of Fox's AMERICAN IDOL, it was the ladies turn to strut their stuff. Chelsea Sorrell, Erika Van Pelt, Jennifer Hirsh, Brielle Von Hugel, Hallie Day, Skylar Laine, Baylie Brown, Hollie Cavanagh, Haley Johnsen, Shannon Magrane, Jessica Sanchez, and Elise Testone all performed live for America's vote.

As last night's AMERICAN IDOL concluded last night, host Ryan Seacrest introduced America to the Top 24 finalists. As the credits began to roll, judge Steven Tyler decided he wanted to take a dip, and went on to strip down and dive into the pool!

The AMERICAN IDOL auditions came to a spectacular conclusion last night as the judges' remaining picks for the semi-finalists were revealed. Jennifer, Randy and Steven have chosen their top contestants and will turn the power over to America when the LIVE shows and voting begin next week.

Last night, the AMERICAN IDOL judges announced the 14 semifinalists who have secured a coveted spot in this season's Top 24.
