The competition on American Idol is heating up each week as the finale looms closer and the contestants either survive another round of evictions or go back home dejected. Hosted by Ryan Seacrest, the 23rd season of the popular singing reality series has finally found its top fourteen artists.
For the unversed, the choice was to be made from the top 20 contestants. The 10 chosen by the audience based on the most votes were sent straight to the top 14. The remaining 10 were in the danger zone and had to impress judges Carrie Underwood, Lionel Richie, and Luke Bryan to be picked as the four picks instead of the six artists chosen for elimination.
