Hollie Cavanagh Makes "American Idol" Top 4

Thursday May 3, 2012

After a stellar performance last night, Hollie Cavanagh advanced to the Top 4 finalists on FOX's American Idol. An amazing 60 million votes were cast last night. Hollie performed "River Deep, Mountain High" for her 60s tune and "Bleeding Love," by Leona Lewis for her British-inspired song.

The judges loved both of Hollie's performances. "You were two for two," Randy Jackson said. Obviously Idol viewers loved them too.

Dim the Lights. Here are the Results.

First Ryan Seacrest singled out Joshua Ledet and told him that he was safe.

Then Phillip Phillips and Hollie Cavanagh were brought to the center of the stage. Hollie was told that she is in the Bottom 2. Phillips was safe. (I check the volume on my TV to make sure I heard that right).

  • Jessica Sanchez and Sklyar Laine were the last two contestants remaining. Sanchez was safe and Laine took a seat in the Bottom 2 with Cavanagh.

The Bottom 2:
Hollie Cavanagh was in the bottom 2 along with Skylar Laine. Skylar has been Hollie's roommate and bestie throughout the competition. Unfortunately, it was the end of road for Skylar Laine. But congratulations to Hollie, who will be back again to perform next week in the Top 4!

Don't miss the performance show Wednesday on FOX 4.

Phil, Phil, Phil
I'm a little surprised that Skylar went home tonight -- but not entirely disappointed. I thought she was a little screamy and too rambunctious for my taste. However, I really thought it was Phil Phillips' week to go home. I'm still having a problem with his wardrobe. He dresses like a college boy who scooped up 3 pieces of clothing off his dorm room floor and ran to the studio. Layered tees and flannel shirts have their place in a person's wardrobee -- but wait until you are a rock star to dress like one. Idol's picking up the tab for your wardrobe so venture out and shop somewhere other than Old Navy. (And no offense to Old Navy because I totally love them). Buy rock star clothes while you're still on their tab.
