Remember: The American Idol 13 final performance airs TUESDAY MAY 20 at 8 pm and is only 1 hour long. The finale airs WEDNESDAY May 21 at 8pm!
Caleb Johnson and Jena Irene will face off for the crown! I’m hearing that Jena WON the post-show cointoss. I believe it’s safe to assume she chose to perform 2nd. Nope! According to a caption attached to this OFFICIAL FOX production still, Jena elected to go first.
Idol producers outdid themselves, booking a slew of hot artists to perform on the finale. During Wednesday’s two hour extravaganza LIVE from the NOKIA theater, Caleb is set to duet with KISS, Jena will sing with Paramore and 3rd place finisher, Alex Preston, will join forces with Jason Mraz. Demi Lovato will perform with the girls of the Top 13.
Other Top 13 pairings include: Jessica Meuse and Jennifer Nettles. Malaya Watson and John Legend, CJ Harris, Dexter Roberts with Darius Rucker and Sam Woolf and Phillip Phillips. Lady Antebellum and Aloe Blacc are also set to perform!
