American Idol 2022 Spoilers: Top 20 Contestant List (Results)

American Idol’s Top 24 performance episodes became rather chaotic when frontrunner Kenedi Anderson quit the show after she taped her performance at the Disney Aulani Resort in Hawaii earlier this year. While the show aired her performance of Christina Perri’s “Human,” a clip of Ryan Seacrest explaining that she left the competition aired right afterward. Kenedi confirmed her departure soon after.

American Idol 2022: Full Season 20 Schedule (Updated 4/15)

A viewer vote followed each night’s performances. The plan was to send two home from each set of 12 contestants. But because Kenedi from Night 2, self-eliminated, only one singer from the second set of Top 24 contestants went home. Somebody caught a huge break and a second chance. Two singers were eliminated from night 1.

POLL RESULTS

More than 25% of respondents felt former college football player and country singer Dan Marshall was headed home. I actually disagreed. Being a cute southern country crooner will buy Dan some time. But maybe not much. Unless he steps up his game, there is a good chance he’ll be cut before the Top 14.
