American Idol 2022: Hollywood Duet Pairings Revealed! What’s Next?

American Idol 2022 - HUNTERGIRL, JAY, KENEDI ANDERSON
(ABC/Eric McCandless) – HUNTERGIRL, JAY, KENEDI ANDERSON

American Idol Hollywood Week continues on Sunday (April 3) and Monday (April 4), and here’s what to expect. ABC has not posted photos of the duets on their press site yet. However, the show gave contestants permission to reveal their partners on social media. The below list MAY not be entirely complete. The teases came mostly from contestants whose performances will air on the show. A few singers posted photos, adding that they won’t be on TV (ALAS!)

The duets were put together by judges Lionel Richie, Katy Perry and Luke Bryan. However, another perk of being one of three Platinum Ticket holders: HunterGirl, Jay Copeland and Kenedi Anderson handpicked their own partners. The three teased their duets, but didn’t reveal their partners. Also, there were a few golden ticket holders who ALSO teased duets but didn’t reveal a partner…

Showstopper/Final Judgement

The singers who survive the Duets Challenge move on to the Showstopper/Final Judgement round. Sixty-nine contestants performed in front of the judges and studio audience. Because there were witnesses, we have SPOILERS. For folks who love results ahead of time click here for that. But, this post is a SPOILER FREE ZONE. No spoiler talk in comments THANK YOU.

A mega 3 hour Top 20 episode follows the Top 24, LIVE shows begin April 18

The Top 24 rounds, filmed at Disney Aulani Resort in Hawaii air next Sunday and Monday (April 10 and 11) (Spoilers for THAT TOO). A three hour Top 20 episode airs Sunday April 17, followed by a Top 14 LIVE Reveal show on Monday April 18, then a Top 14 LIVE Performance show airs on Sunday April 24.

It’s not clear if Idol is airing a show on Monday April 25. But, OnCameraAudience has a taping scheduled that day. So, stay tuned. Tapings are scheduled for April 11 and 12. More SPOILERS are coming our way, most likely. We’re updating the scheduling page as episode dates become available
