The Monday, April 22 live episode of “American Idol” Season 22 proved to be the end of the road for two fan-fave singers: Jayna Elise and Roman Collins. They were the only artists in the Top 12 that failed to earn enough votes from viewers to make it into next week’s all-important Top 10. Host Ryan Seacrest delivered the unfortunate news in front of judges Katy Perry, Luke Bryan and Lionel Richie. The guest mentor for “Billboard #1 Hits” night was Meghan Trainor.
Throughout the competition, Jayna sang tunes like “The Climb” (Auditions round), “It’s All Coming Back to Me Now” (Showstopper round), “Confident” (Top 24 round), “My All”, “All I Wanted”, “I Have Nothing” (Top 14 round) and “Diamonds” (Top 12 round). The 22-year-old performer from Washington, D.C. actually began her journey last year on “Idol,” but was eliminated prior to the Season 21 live shows. The good news is that she made it much further this time around.

It’s time for the Duets Challenge on American Idol Season 21 Episode 8. This part of Hollywood Week is always extra stressful for contestants and puts their teamwork skills and patience to the test. Adding to the pressure this year is the twist that everyone picks their own duet partner instead of the judges picking for them. Plus, the four platinum ticket winners — Elijah McCormick, Tyson Venegas, Kaylin Hedges, and Cam Amen — are back in the game, so there’s even more tough competition.
Following Sara Beth’s exit last night, more contestants considered leaving the competition. Here’s what you missed on Duets night.
