It was a night of high emotions and even higher stakes last night at “American Idol.” Because of the disqualification of Jermaine Jones, the field was being cut from 11 to the Top 10, which means one contestant would go home, while the rest will all go on tour when “Idol’s” finished. Based on America’s votes, Shannon Magrane was the one who didn’t make the cut, and the judges chose not to use their save tonight. FOX All Access was backstage after the show and spoke to Jennifer Lopez, who talked about the Top 10 finalists, having to say goodbye to Magrane, and what it will take to win the “Idol” crown this year. Although “American Idol” is based in Hollywood, the Top 10 contestants will be in a “New York State of Mind” next week, as they tackle the Grammy-winning catalog of the “Piano Man,” Billy Joel. Who will be able to handle the “Pressure,” and who will be “Movin’ Out”? Only the good move on, so watch the performances next Wednesday at 8/7 central, and then find out who advances on the “American Idol” results show, Thursday night on Check us out on the web: foxallaccess.blogs.fox.com Follow us on Twitter twitter.com Follow us on Facebook: www.facebook.com
“American Idol” said goodbye to contestant Shannon Magrane tonight, and FOX All Access was backstage to speak with the judges afterward. Steven Tyler thinks things are only going to get tougher for the remaining 10 contestants, because he says they’ve been improving and raising the bar every week since they made it to the live performance round. And since the 10 remaining singers will be going on the “American Idols Live” tour this summer, we reminisced with Tyler about his first Aerosmith tour. And even though that tour took place four decades ago, Tyler told us the band’s been working on new music, and they’re on an incredible creative roll right now Check us out on the web: foxallaccess.blogs.fox.com Follow us on Twitter twitter.com Follow us on Facebook: www.facebook.com
