Although the performances will be pre-filmed, the voting results are suppose to air live, which means that we will be revealing contestants’ fates before they themselves officially learn. We have done so before on only a few occasions, such as with the judges’ 10 rehearsal-based eliminations during season 13’s semi-finals, which we received backlash for, including from the parent of one eliminated contestant. Due to the rarity and controversial nature of such spoilers, we are waiting until after the contestants have filmed their performances. 8 hours ago, Idol Maniac said: To clarify, we did not release and then remove the spoilers.

Will we only get to see the Top 10 air? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm actually not mad about it this time around... since there's such a drastic cut the first week, I think it'll be nice to have one more get another chance (even though they'll probably choose someone who SHOULD go home, knowing their track record). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redwood79 Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 So will it be a Top 11 instead of Top 10 if they use their save? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine it's like the previous seasons and the save doesn't work for the semi-finalist cuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just think it's worded funny since the Top 10 results are happening the same night the Top 20 results. Typically any saves doled out when the finalists are being built is referred to as a wildcard.

holinessss Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 (edited) they'll probably use it for the T10 to T5 cut for a T6 to get another girl in the finals Edited April 30, 2020 by holinessss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same as the last two years. It airs live at the same time in all time zones (so it'll be on at 2PM in Hawaii, for instance) and you vote throughout the show. At the end of the show, they announce the contestants leaving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The performances probably would have been live had the coronavirus not forced the show to use remote settings. But the performances have to be be filmed via remote settings and that requires pre-filming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
