‘Idol’ Results: Burnell Taylor Eliminated And Top 6 Are Revealed

By The Huffington Post News Editors

The “Idol” results are in and Burnell Taylor is going home.

Burnell and Janelle Arthur were in the Bottom 2. He was one of two remaining guys in the competition and sang India Arie’s “Ready For Love” for the save. The performance had Candice Glover in tears and Mariah Carey got choked up as well. But it wasn’t enough for the judges: Randy Jackson announced they wouldn’t use their one save of the season for Burnell as tears filled Mariah and Nicki Minaj‘s eyes.

Rock week was certainly a success for Candice, Kree Harrison, Janelle Arthur and Amber Holcomb, but slighltly rocky for others, Burnell included. He kicked off the night with Bon Jovi’s “You’ve Give Love A Bad Name” and was very out of his element. All of the judges applauded Burnell’s effort to step into some studded duds, but judge Keith Urban said he thought Burnell needed to make the song his own.

‘Idols’ Results: Devin Velez Eliminated And Top 7 Are Revealed

By The Huffington Post News Editors

This week’s “Idol” results are in and Devin Velez is going home.

He sang Perry Como’s “It’s Impossible” in both English and Spanish, bringing Mariah Carey to tears. Carey, Randy Jackson and Keith Urban were on their feet. However, the judges decided not to keep Devin around, despite the audience chanting, “Save! Save! Save!”

Unsurprisingly, the three remaining men — Velez, Lazaro Arbos and Burnell Taylor — wound up in the Bottom 3. After Wednesday night’s Detroit-themed performances, many believed the trio of guys would wind up in the bottom. The judges, Nicki Minaj in particular, annihilated their take on The Four Tops “Can’t Help Myself.” Angie Miller also fell slightly out of the judges’ favor with her solo performance of guest mentor Smokey Robinson’s “Shop Around.”

By The Huffington Post News Editors

Juliana Chahayed may have been eliminated on Wednesday’s “sudden death” episode of American Idol, but the 15-year-old’s performance of “Skyscraper” was still one of the most memorable.

Juliana, who is high school sophomore from California, was the only female contestant who opted to play the guitar while singing, and her soft and airy rendition of Demi Lovato‘s powerful single stood out as the most unique vocal showings of the evening. Though she was criticized for being a little “pitchy” by Keith Urban, Mariah Carey described her voice as “angelic.”

Watch Juliana’s “Skyscraper” cover in the video above, and tell us: Do you think she did Demi’s song justice? Sound off in the comments below or tweet @huffpostteen!
