American Idol Recap, Who Went Home?

Last night's show was overshadowed by the drama surrounding Jeremaine Jones' criminal past, and the Idol producers deciding to publicly shame him.  Anything for ratings, FOX? We're surprised there wasn't a stoning with all current and former Idol contestants just to amp it up to 11. Ugh.

There were some good performances, but I wasn't surprised by who ended up in the bottom.

After performances by Demi Lovato and Idol's own Daughtry, we got down to nitty gritty. Now Jimmy Iovine didn't appreciate (but we did!) that the judges told Elise that she shouldn't be listening to him, he liked her performance but she was still in the bottom. Also with the least votes were Erika Van Pelt and Shannon Magrane, Jennifer was none too happy about this.

Buh-bye, Shannon.

It was revealed that Shannon had the least votes, and she would have to sing for her life. She chose her song from last night again, "One Sweet Day," but the fact that she was so emotional didn't really help her. The judges didn't use their one save and Shannon was sent home.

On a happier note, legendary soul singer Percy Sledge sent a personal message to Joshua, telling him he did a great job with his performance. We also got a look at the shows new stylist Tommy Hilfiger. No wonder the contestants looked so much better last night than they did the first official show.

So, here is the Top 10, which we got to quicker than I expected, they'll be the lucky ones touring this Summer. Joshua Ledet, Phillip Phillips, Skylar Laine, Jessica Sanchez, Colton Dixon, DeAndre Brackensick, Hollie Cavanagh, Heejun Han, Elise Testone and Erika Van Pelt.
