The Top 8 were revealed in a live two-hour broadcast of “American Idol” Sunday night. Host Ryan Seacrest called the Top 10 to the stage to perform on “Birth Year Night,” mentored by Shania Twain. In a poll conducted just after the episode, we asked, “Which contestant gave the best performance of the night?” Fifteen-year-old Triston Harper came out on top with his rendition of “She’s Country” by Jason Aldean. Watch his full performance above.
After his performance, Katy Perry thanked him for “being a student of this game.” Luke Bryan asked, “You trying to out-gyrate me?” Lionel questioned, “Did I just see the Triston strut?” They were eating this performance up and apparently so were viewers at home.

Landing in the middle of the pack were Julia Gagnon (“Here I Am”) and Jack Blocker (“Believe”). Does this mean they’ll be safe on Monday? Not necessarily, because votes are cast live once again tonight based on that night’s performances.
If our online poll is accurate, that means the two artists most in danger of leaving Monday are McKenna Faith Breinholt (“Iris”) and Emmy Rusell (“All the Small Things”). Will one of them be on the chopping block? Or are we in for a shocking surprise? Previously, Kayko topped our poll but was still sent packing alongside country singer Mia Matthews.
On Monday, April 29 the Top 8 perform one of three songs secretly selected by Luke, Katy and Lionel, who are each competing for most songs chosen. America votes live for the Top 6, and the judges make a save for the Top 7; plus, a special tribute to Idol alum Mandisa.
