Two more contestants have been eliminated from “American Idol” Season 23.
During the Sunday, May 4, episode, the Top 10 contestants needed to sing songs from iconic women in music, and country singer Miranda Lambert mentored them.
A lot of the singers selected songs by Adele or Carrie Underwood with some performing Fleetwood Mac, Bonnie Raitt, Reba McEntire, Miranda Lambert and Beyoncé. Season 22 winner Abi Carter also stopped by to perform her newest song “burned.”
On Monday, May 5, the Top 8 will need to perform songs selected by Luke Bryan, Lionel Richie or Carrie Underwood for the “Judge’s Song Contest.” Jelly Roll also offers advice as the artist in residence and America will vote for the Top 6.
There will also be a twist where judges can save one contestant to compete in the Top 7.
