Here's the first shocker of the American Idol season: Lilly Scott is out!
Lilly, who had been a judges favorite, was eliminated on Thursday night. The talented singer didn't even make it to the Top 12.
"I put my heart into every performance," she said after her elimination. "It's surprising. A lot of incredible talent is going home tonight...I don't know what America wants to hear. I just know that there's an audience out there for me."
Lilly Scott wasn't the only contestant who got voted off American Idol after almost making it to the Top 12. This week's other eliminated contestants are Katelyn Epperly, Todrick Hall, and Alex Lambert.
Katelyn Epperly was the first contestant to be eliminated. "It was definitely a great experience," she said. "I've learned a ton and I'm not stopping now. It's just a push actually for me to go do more stuff."
After Todrick Hall learned he was going home, he said, "This has been an awesome experience. I came here to prove that I'm not just a dancer. I can also sing. I think that I've done that." And he proved it once again by giving a performance that earned a standing ovation from Randy, Ellen, and Kara.
Alex Lambert also delivered a strong goodbye performance, but the lovable singer was overcome with emotion after his elimination. "I wish I had not been so nervous on stage," he said. "There's a lot of things that America hasn't seen me do yet...I wish I could have just broken out of my shell."
Thoughts: What do you think of this week's eliminations? Are you shocked that Lilly Scott went home? Sound off in the comments!

Michael Lynche aka Big Mike became the American Idol contestant to beat on Wednesday night after he shook up the competition with a performance of Maxwell's "This Woman's Work."
The moving performance earned tears from Kara and high praise from all four judges. Randy thought it was "dope." Ellen said "You are the one to beat now." Kara, who cried during her comments, said "It's amazing, you were amazing...Brought me to tears."
Simon, while comforting a still emotional Kara, remarked that Michael's version of "This Woman's Work" was the "best performance of all the live shows this season."
High praise indeed.
Big Mike's almost flawless delivery plus the song's beautiful lyrics were the perfect combination for a memorable performance.

It's time for America's Next Top Model Cycle 14!
Cycle 14 premieres tonight with a new group of ladies who are in the running toward becoming America's Next Model -- and new judge Andre Leon Talley, who will help decide who makes the cut.
I know what you might be thinking...another new face at the judges table? First Janice said goodbye. Then Twiggy hit the road. Then Paulina was fired. And now Andre Leon Talley, who is the editor at large for Vogue magazine, is suddenly on the panel. We'll have to wait and see if Andre sticks around for more than two seasons.
But even though the judges seem to have their own reality competition going on, it was all about the contestants as cycle 14 got off to a start on Wednesday night. After the top 32 finalists tried their best to make it into the top 13, only these ladies remained as the new faces of America's Next Top Model Cycle 14.
What did you think of the new contestants. Is the new cast hot or not? Share your thoughts in the comments.
