‘American Idol’: Abi Carter’s ‘Goodbye Yellow Brick Road’ named top performance on ‘Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Night,’ but who will be eliminated? [POLL RESULTS]
The Top 12 were revealed in a live two-hour broadcast of “American Idol” Sunday night. Host Ryan Seacrest called the Top 14 to the stage to perform on “Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Night,” mentored by Gene Simmons. In a poll conducted just after the episode, we asked, “Which contestant gave the best performance of the night?” For the second week in a row Abi Carter came out on top, this time with her rendition of “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road” by Elton John. Watch her full performance above.
“It’s always been you,” Katy Perry gushed following Abi’s performance. Luke Bryan complimented the singer for holding the whole room “like a pro” and Lionel Richie applauded everyone in “this class” for a superb episode of television.
After thousands of votes were recorded, Abi ended up with 31% of the tally, followed by Triston Harper (“Heartbreak Hotel”) with 16%, Will Moseley (“Night Moves”) with 9%, Julia Gagnon (“Run to You”) with 8% and Jack Blocker (“Don’t Think Twice, It’s Alright”) with 6%.

Landing in the middle of the pack were Emmy Russell (“I Can’t Make You Love Me”), Kaibrienne (“I Hate Myself for Loving You”) and Roman Collins (“You’re All I Need to Get By”).
If our online poll is accurate, that means the four artists most in danger of leaving tonight are Kayko (“High & Dry”), Jayna Elise (“I Have Nothing”), McKenna Faith Breinholt (“Hard to Say I’m Sorry”) and Mia Matthews (“Those Memories of You”). Will two of them be on the chopping block tonight? Or are we in for a shocking surprise?
On Monday, April 22 the Top 12 will be mentored by Meghan Trainor on “Billboard #1 Hits Night” before two more are eliminated, leaving just 10 singers vying for the 2024 title.
