On tonight's episode, we saw the number of contestants drastically cut in half! America's votes have been tallied and the Top 10 were revealed. The judges surprised everyone when they decided to use their one save of the season to keep an additional contestant,16 year old Makayla Phillips.

The 11 hopefuls that made it through then sang songs that reminded them of home. Celebrity guest mentors Darius Rucker and Stevie Wonder remotely dropped by to offer some helpful advice and insight.

Due to the Coronavirus pandemic, American Idol had to rethink how to execute the remainder of its season.On tonight's groundbreaking episode we saw something that has never been done before, the Top 20 contestants performed remotely from each of their homes. Ryan Seacrest hosted the show from his house, and the judges gave their critiques from their living rooms.

This innovative, never before seen format highlighted many of the Idol hopeful's talents, but unfortunately the remote filming did not showcase others' voices as well.

America's votes on tonight's performances will decide the Top 10 contestants, which will be revealed next week.
