American Idol Top 24 (Part 1)

A very emotional episode of American Idol aired last night. The contestants performed Beatles songs in Vegas for the first hour. Cuts ensued, and in the second hour, the judges began selecting the top 24 contestants.

Five contestants have made it to the top 24 so far. But, of course, more cuts had to be made. Jennifer Lopez had a really tough time dismissing a few contestants and was close to tears on several occasions. After the episode’s final elimination, Jennifer broke down crying. It was definitely a heart-wrenching moment.

In case you missed it, here’s a recap of the episode:
