After a dramatic “Songs of Faith” night, American Idol is gearing up for one of its most intense episodes yet—and fans won’t want to miss what’s coming next.
When to Watch
Episode 11, featuring the ’90s Judges’ Song Contest, will air on Monday, April 6 at 8 p.m. ET on ABC.
If you miss it live, you can stream the episode the next day on Hulu.
What to Expect This Week
Last week’s episode narrowed the competition from the Top 20 down to 14 contestants. However, in an unexpected twist, two planned eliminations were delayed due to an overwhelming number of viewer votes.
Now, those results will finally be revealed at the start of this week’s episode—meaning the tension will be high from the very first moment.
Here’s how the night is expected to unfold:
- Two contestants eliminated at the beginning (delayed results from last week)
- The remaining singers perform iconic ’90s hits in the Judges’ Song Contest
- One more contestant eliminated at the end of the show
By the end of the night, the competition will shrink from Top 14 to Top 11.
Who Went Home Last Week?
Six contestants were eliminated during the “Songs of Faith” episode:
- Ruby Rae
- Madison Moon
- Genevieve Heyward
- Abayomi
- Kutter Bradley
- Makiyah
Who’s at Risk?
Based on current voting trends, Daniel Stallworth, Jesse Findling, and Lucas Leon are currently landing in the bottom three—making them the most vulnerable heading into this intense episode.
Why This Episode Matters
With multiple eliminations and live voting in play, this episode could completely reshape the competition. Emotions are high, stakes are rising, and every performance counts more than ever.
One thing’s certain—by the end of the night, American Idol will look very different.
