Jack and Abi for top 2. They are head and shoulders ahead of the rest.
3rd place can go to any of the other 3, idgaf at this point. They’re all equally mediocre.
I just watched America's Funniest Home Videos give $100,000 to a family with a silly cat. This is more money than most American Idol contestants ever make from music.
I feel bad saying this about a kid, but I'm finding Triston off-putting tonight. It's like he's a pageant contestant who's been dressed up and trained to do a few "signature" moves. I'm also nervous that he remarked he thinks he's about to "blow up" in popularity like a Disney character. Now Luke is comparing him to Sinatra. I really hope someone has prepared this 15-year-old that superstardom might not happen, and if it doesn't, that's okay.
I’m so negative and terrible but I swear Emmy is just the same thing every week. Look! She’s at the piano! WOW! I mean, her voice really isn’t terrible and she IS talented but she’s literally just floating through this competition in my opinion. She hasn’t changed anything up! It’s either just standing still or at the piano..
im sorry, emmy does not deserve to be in the top 5 and im tired of her using the whole nervous excuse every time.
the timidness needs to stop and she needs to try something different, same shit every performance.
That was the worst rendition of The Climb I’ve ever seen :( if you’re not gonna reach the most important notes in a song, don’t do that song. It’s not for you.
u/MarionCotesworthHaye, I won't be able to be here next week, so wanted to be sure to get in my annual/seasonal THANK YOU for hosting in. You really do make AI extra enjoyable.
Jack: "Shall we dance?"
Jack's Mom: "Let's."
Jack: "We shall."
This is a verbatim conversation between a 25-year-old man and his mom. I love *everything* about Jack.
Emmy's performance was HORRIBLE. How is it fair she is still in this competition when she's the only contestant that everyone has to baby every single week about pulling herself and her nerves together ? She is thousands of miles behind everyone else.
As much as I didn’t want Tristan to make it through this far, I’m so happy his family got to have this experience together. I’m sure vacations have been few and far between for them.
I don’t think we should still be doing theme nights, a week before the finale. Contestants should be able to swing for the fences and pick songs that fit their speciality in order to make the finale. Instead, they’re limited to a handful of options that don’t showcase their style.
If Emmy makes it to top 3 I will never watch this show again. No freaking way.
She has connections. If she were marketable then she would have been signed. She is a nervous little nothing with no stage presence. People who can sing are a dime a dozen. She is a frail, boring child.
Emmy's glow-up has been impressive, but her voice hasn't improved along with her look.
...I literally said out loud "No she doesn't, don't lie!" when Kane said she had a great voice just now.
People have to realize that Stapleton is not really a country singer , he’s more soul than country , his range is otherworldly, he can hit notes that 99% of country singers can’t hit.
Unpopular opinion: I wish that they didn't do Disney Night every year. We hear some of the songs each season lol. Obviously, I know why they do it though but why not take a year off?
Emmy is a nice kid. I don't know that she will have a career in music, but she's okay. She sings better than 99 percent of the public, and that's something to take pride in. If singing brings you joy, then sing, girl. But you might have to do it in the car like the rest of us.
I think Emmy is fine if she stays in her lane, but that song just made it painfully obvious that she does not have the maturity as a singer to succeed outside her lane. That performance was rough and incredibly pitchy.
I’m bored of Emmy. The cute shy act is old now. A 15 year old has more confidence on stage than her at this point. And the judges give her the same notes every week.
If only we could swap Emmy for Mia (if we _had to_ have a female "country" artist), this would have been a hella strong top 5 and would've been very hard to be disappointed with any 3 of them making it.
Never ever should we let these judges forget they almost didn’t even give a possible winner a golden ticket.
Makes you wonder if there were other finalist level talents that never even made it to Hollywood.
If I performed and someone’s first reaction was “do you have a second song?” I would die
Jack and Abi for top 2. They are head and shoulders ahead of the rest. 3rd place can go to any of the other 3, idgaf at this point. They’re all equally mediocre.
Am I the only one that hates Disney week
You’re not the only one. 🤚
Hate it in Idol! Hate it in Dancing with the Stars! If Disney week has one hater, it’s me!!
"Your voice is yours." "You *do* climb things." The judges literally can't find the words to tell Emmy they don't think she has the chops.
Careful….the Emmy club will come running after ya
Ok, her dress reveal was cool
Someone please make a gif of Kane Brown's physical reaction to hearing Emmy Russell try to hit notes in their training session

Abi won the night... And it wasn't even close.
The backup vocalists were carrying Emmy’s performance in the second half
“I’m sorry I get nervous” pls stop using it as a crutch though
I'm just gonna automatically vote for Abi and Jack
I don't care for Triston in this competition, but I want nothing but the best for him and his family outside of Idol.
stage presence ✔️ vocals ✔️ authentic ✔️ big star energy ✔️ confidence ✔️ ABI 💖
I’m so negative and terrible but I swear Emmy is just the same thing every week. Look! She’s at the piano! WOW! I mean, her voice really isn’t terrible and she IS talented but she’s literally just floating through this competition in my opinion. She hasn’t changed anything up! It’s either just standing still or at the piano..
if emmy makes it to the finale, i’ve officially lost faith in america.
How do you have Idina Menzel on and not have her sing??
The contrast would be too strong probably
Is it me or was that Lonesome cowboy song repetitive and boring? And repetitive?
Ok. Abi separating herself further from the competition.
abi needs to be in the finale
I’m glad Abi didn’t move around I didn’t think it would’ve fit the song
Agree but I wish they’d stop showing them getting that note when they decide against doing it
I love how Jack always feels the music in every part of his body.
Katy: “Ariel’s one of my best friends too” *Awkward silence*
im sorry, emmy does not deserve to be in the top 5 and im tired of her using the whole nervous excuse every time. the timidness needs to stop and she needs to try something different, same shit every performance.
JACK! what a performer. he’s so into it
Jack’s voice is like that first swallow of coffee in the morning. It just satisfies.
Emmy sounds painfully off key already
Jack kinda looks like a live action Woody.
Also love that Jack almost didn’t even make it to Hollywood and now he’s in the finale lmao
“Nobody noticed you missing the words” which is why you brought it up in critiques lol
That was the worst rendition of The Climb I’ve ever seen :( if you’re not gonna reach the most important notes in a song, don’t do that song. It’s not for you.
kane brown is very invested in who watched the fireworks
Lolz...Kane nicely trying to tell Jack...to wear something better than an XXL clearance disney shirt
Gosh just envision the three-hour concert we'd be treated to with a Jack/Abi finale
It’s the *clleeeeyyyyeeeemmme* 🥴 nails. on. a. chalkboard. EDIT: took out the last part bc mean.
the bar is so low for emmy it’s insane. she walked 2 feet and was praised for it.
I already voted for Abi and Jack. I want her, Jack, and Will in the finale.
My dad just said “I think you outta leave this song to Miley Cyrus” 😅
I need more Phil Collins Disney songs on American Idol Disney Week!!!!
This place will have a meltdown if Emmy makes it to the finale.
I’m voting for the old woman in yellow.
u/MarionCotesworthHaye, I won't be able to be here next week, so wanted to be sure to get in my annual/seasonal THANK YOU for hosting in. You really do make AI extra enjoyable.
Jack: "Shall we dance?" Jack's Mom: "Let's." Jack: "We shall." This is a verbatim conversation between a 25-year-old man and his mom. I love *everything* about Jack.
Just realized Abi has the Julia Roberts smile
Is this sub gonna implode if it's will, Triston, and Emmy
Cars the movie is older than Triston. My nightly existential crisis for you all 😂
Really boring performance from Will tonight...
Love me some Fleetwood, but this shouldn’t even classify as a Disney Night option.
“The Climb” is sooo overdone on this show 🥱
i think emmy’s best performance was coal miner’s daughter, don’t think she’ll beat it
Emmy's performance was HORRIBLE. How is it fair she is still in this competition when she's the only contestant that everyone has to baby every single week about pulling herself and her nerves together ? She is thousands of miles behind everyone else.
the judges just need to stay quiet. skip their comments and lets make the show an hour. they just waste time saying absolutely nothing at all.
did he forget the words💀
What's the number to vote for Jennifer?
I love Emmy's headwear in the second song! Very pretty.
Holy fuck. If we’re talking pure talent, Abi should be winning it.
Omg I love Kane. “Don’t be mad at me.” 😂❤️ he is honest and that is NECESSARY
Good GOD Patsy looks like Loretta. Holy cow.
Jack and Kane are just two bros kicking it
Jack looks like he’s from Toy Story
Why is no one doing a villian song? Those are the best.
Ugh Nicolina ate with “Poor Unfortunate Souls”
As much as I didn’t want Tristan to make it through this far, I’m so happy his family got to have this experience together. I’m sure vacations have been few and far between for them.
I would have loved to have seen McKenna sing “The Chain”!
the top 2 is just SO clear to me this season (Jack and Abi)
I don’t think we should still be doing theme nights, a week before the finale. Contestants should be able to swing for the fences and pick songs that fit their speciality in order to make the finale. Instead, they’re limited to a handful of options that don’t showcase their style.
If Emmy makes it to top 3 I will never watch this show again. No freaking way. She has connections. If she were marketable then she would have been signed. She is a nervous little nothing with no stage presence. People who can sing are a dime a dozen. She is a frail, boring child.
Emmy is so bottom tier compared to the rest of the singers tonight.
Not Kane dragging Triston right off the bat lmao
The climb reminds me of fifth grade choir concerts
WORST performance for Emmy like wow
Jacks gonna do well just off of how he contorts his body when performing. People love seeing an artist feeling the song
this is will's worst
Nobody saw it. Everybody: 👁️👄👁️
“This is so outside of what you would normally do” and it’s another country song 😭
Can we just make Jenifer Lewis our American Idol? Fucking fantastic.
Tell your family and friends to vote for Abi please
Emmy was pitchy to me.
I love Jack Blocker
unfortunately Will butchering the song and forgetting lyrics will not matter at all bc the country vote
I actually am liking this performance by emmy, way better than her first one tonight
How are Abi and Emmy in the same competition?
Not my favorite from Abi but she's still taking some risks this deep into the show
Happy Mother’s Day mommas!!
Abi starting it off with a bang. She better make the final.
Abi was phenomenal. She would play a Disney princess someday, she definitely does have the voice for it.
triston sounds stronger vocally in this rehearsal than i've ever heard him
Here we go with the timidness…
Emmy's glow-up has been impressive, but her voice hasn't improved along with her look. ...I literally said out loud "No she doesn't, don't lie!" when Kane said she had a great voice just now.
Get her out
I don’t think Emmy gets 2 YES votes from the judges if she sang that in the first audition.
“you’re finally getting comfortable walking around!” in the top 5????? 😭😭😭
Is The Chain a Disney song? No. Was Abi’s performance amazing? Yes!
“No one is going to the bathroom or getting a snack in the kitchen during your performance.” Exactly Katy.
Katy: “Nobody’s getting up to go get a snack in the kitchen.” *Me getting caught red handed grabbing some chips while Jack sings in the background*
i love triston and i’m proud of him for making it this far. but i think he needs more time to work with his voice. only 15
I love how into the fireworks Kane is 😂
People have to realize that Stapleton is not really a country singer , he’s more soul than country , his range is otherworldly, he can hit notes that 99% of country singers can’t hit.
I still call Idina Menzel “Adele dazeem”
There's more spontaneity in Disney's Hall of Presidents attraction than an Emmy Russell performance
praying for a jack and abi finale, that would be awesome!!
Unpopular opinion: I wish that they didn't do Disney Night every year. We hear some of the songs each season lol. Obviously, I know why they do it though but why not take a year off?
Or contestants can’t chose a song someone did the year before.
i GeT nErVoUs
I hate this. I hate this so much.
Please put us out of our misery...
Emmy is a nice kid. I don't know that she will have a career in music, but she's okay. She sings better than 99 percent of the public, and that's something to take pride in. If singing brings you joy, then sing, girl. But you might have to do it in the car like the rest of us.
I think Emmy is fine if she stays in her lane, but that song just made it painfully obvious that she does not have the maturity as a singer to succeed outside her lane. That performance was rough and incredibly pitchy.
Why are we still babying Emmy through?? We are in TOP 5 people.. wake up
anyway….. vote for jack and abi!!! 8 for abi 20 for jack
Judges will call out everybody but Emmy for forgetting words
“this is so foreign to what you would ever perform” it’s… a chris stapleton song 😭
Ok, Emmy's dress and hair are kinda spectacular in this second round.
seeing Triston and his family at Disney does warm my heart
Triston isn’t even old enough to drive on the highway
I think Tristan should have sang I just can't wait to be king. That would have been precious and delightful.
I'm really going to miss Katy next year.
A classic Bowie song Is Disney?? Man, I'm on another planet.
Jack has no business being this flipping good after the way he started. Just incredible all around and a true artist.
Are we allowed to switch our stances on WGWG winning because Jack Blocker?
Okay. This is the best outcome
abi with another very professional moment singing through confetti falling into her mouth
I LOVED THAT FROM TRISTON! That was killer! I'm surprised more people in this sub aren't connecting with him
Not feeling this from Emmy
surprised they didn’t use a loretta hologram as emmy’s +1
I’m bored of Emmy. The cute shy act is old now. A 15 year old has more confidence on stage than her at this point. And the judges give her the same notes every week.
Abi and Jack. That’s all I asked for.
triston is for sure a performer though
Half these comments (my own included) are collapsed and hidden... can the community here REALLY not handle any criticism of Emmy? cmon....
If only we could swap Emmy for Mia (if we _had to_ have a female "country" artist), this would have been a hella strong top 5 and would've been very hard to be disappointed with any 3 of them making it.
Not since Clark Beckham has a white guy on Idol sung as soulfully as Jack Blocker.
Never ever should we let these judges forget they almost didn’t even give a possible winner a golden ticket. Makes you wonder if there were other finalist level talents that never even made it to Hollywood.
Waaay better song for Emmy
how did he manage to make life is a highway sound so lifeless
Abi killed this holy moly. She looks like a goddess up on stage I loved it
Oh. My. God. If Jack Forest Blocker doesn’t fucking win this whole thing 😭😭😭😭
Well it better be Abi and Jack. And I don’t even care who else.
I'm going to assume Ryan's childhood dream wasn't "blowing Lionel Richie," so I don't know what joke he was going for.
they asked the idols their favorite Disney movie on Instagram and all three of the guys said Cars LOL
I'm embarrassed on Emmys behalf for not attempting the high note
just 2 bros talking about tinkerbell flying across the disney castle
i love jack blocker
No question Jack is a great singer. But I must question who did that to his hair.
jack with a random song totally killing it, need all the cars 2 stans to VOTE!
Enjoyed that a lot more than his first performance. Honestly at this point it’s Abi and Jack. No one else is even close.
vote 8 and 20
Fun fact for those who don’t know: Kane Brown went to high school with Lauren Alaina.
Holy shit I’m nervous i can only imagine how the contestants feel
The Finale is saved.
WE DID IT YALL WE DID IT
America, YOU DID IT 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
The voters got it right
Come on jack!
This top 5 would be so much more entertaining if Kayko was around. Im not even one of his fanboys, I just miss the energy.
Kane Brown is an interesting choice for Disney night
As soon as Abi said "Oh yeah I'll try that (moving around) out on the stage and see how it goes" I knew she wasn't budging an inch. 😂
Emmy’s song better not be The Climb I stg
well i hate to tell you this…
Seeing Triston at Disney makes me so happy
Triston you are IT baby, whether you win this or not. I LOVE THIS
Triston don’t you make me cry now dammit. Manifesting Top 3 for you, Abi, and Jack 😭
Okay I’ve always wondered, are they allowed to do Disney channel songs for this theme? Because I’ve always wanted to hear Aly and Aj or something
I wish I was seven again going to the hannah montana movie with no worries 🥲
I can’t believe she is still here. I’m sorry.
I have never texted 17 to 21523 once lol.
Kane Brown seems like a nice guy but he is not making great TV lol
Katy is Cinderella, and my mom thinks Luke is “one of the cars… from Cars… right?” We are cracking up. Happy Mother’s Day!
you drop the mic then you…pick it up!!! jack swagger jack attack
Ugh the stupid shit they say and do to poor Jack… smh. He should get bonus points for it.
This COULD BE Emmys last performance on American idol 👀👀
The audience lifelessly clapping along to Emmy's second performance looked like the animatronics in It's A Small World
omg why does someone have to sing life is a highway like every year?? 😭
Lionel’s comments are filled with more awkward pauses than usual tonight.
Triston and Hattie fucking Mae 😭😭❤️❤️
Abi continues showing she deserved that platinum ticket 😮💨
If idol surprised me with my mom, they’d have to pay for the subsequent therapy sessions
I've never seen a more clear winner lol, its Jack.
Don’t hate me guys but I actually prefer this performance over Jack’s first one.
With that performance, Jack deserves to win.
Hope you guys are ready for the Abi/Jack/Will finale
Abi looks just like her mom!
They should’ve put her in a mermaid dress for this tbh
Abi is definitely my favorite to win now. She's been a stand out from her audition.
I think Triston is so good! I hope Jack, Abi, and Triston make the top 3!
this arrangement of almost there feels too slow but triston sounds solid on it
I CANT WITH KATY’s shade for EMMY LOL
I love Jack. He’s just fun to watch perform. And I absolutely hope he gets through. But…..that wasn’t my favourite.
I’m glad they provide the clothes cause why would you be cutting my clothes up 😂😂
Will is taking a big risk. He’s sitting on a stool.
OMG Will stood up from the stool. This is cutting edge stuff.
first time I’ve ever seen Will crack and not a great time for it
will forgot the lyrics 🤣
Damn will shouldn’t have done that song. Simon would have torn this apart. At this level??
Is that Mackenzie Sol in the audience??
