Filipino–American, Malaya Watson, is among the Top 7 on American Idol. Sam Woolf was eliminated but saved by the judges on American Idol, during the Top 8 showdown last Thursday, April 3, 2014.
The Bottom 3 American Idol contestants were:
Sam Woolf
Malaya Watson
CJ Harris
Malaya and CJ were announced safe, and Sam Woolf had to sing to be saved. The American Idol judges: Jennifer Lopez, Harry Connick Jr., and Keith Urban have decided to save him, so the contestants went back to being Top 8 again.
Sam Woolf’s being at the Bottom 3 was a surprise because most people thought he would get most of the girls’ votes.
The Top 8 American Idol contestants who remain to be contenders are:
- Malaya Watson
- Caleb Johnson
- Sam Woolf
- C J Harris
- Jena Irene Ascuitto
- Alex Preston
- Jessica Meuse
- Dexter Roberts
On top of the list is rocker Caleb Johnson, whom Harry Connick Jr. likened to Journey’s lead singer, Arnel Pineda. Would he be the next American Idol?
