American Idol Top 5 Results, April 28: Who Was Eliminated?

Idol producers decided to change it up a bit. “Who is in and who is out? You may be surprised,” Ryan said. When Ryan said that, I immediately thought “OMG, Casey is out!” Unfortunately, I was proven to be right. Shocking? Not really.

Casey is not the normal Idol contestant. He is the jazzy/bluesy musician with a beard. Ryan called contestants to the center of the stage, while Jimmy Iovine provided some good comments and great critiques à la Simon Cowell.

Ryan announced the results would be announced randomly, which means we got a fictitious bottom 3. Jacob Lusk, Scotty McCreery and Casey Abrams were put in the spot. Jacob was safe. I cannot believe how Jacob still manages to survive in this competition. Next week…

Anyhow, Casey was eliminated. This is just a TV show. Casey did well, but he had no chance of winning the title. He said goodbye to the competition with a rendition of “I Put A Spell on You” and he sang “because you’re mine” to his rumored girlfriend, Haley Reinhart. Sweet moment.
