We had over 29 million votes.
Great work. Thank you very much.
So let's hear it for ourjudges. Say hi to randy jackson.
Paula abdul.
And simon cowell.
And we have a very special guest with us tonight.
Ladies and gentlemen, mR. Jim carrey is here.
Hey, guys!
How are you tonight, jim?
How you doing, buddy?
Good. Good to see you, ryan.
Good to see you, guys. Great to be here!
What's with the costume?
You know, when I get into a part, I immerse myself in it generally.
Sometimes it sticks with me for a while.
I thinned down a lot.
This wouldn't be a fox film, would it be?
Busted.
You like to point out the elephant in the room, don't you?
Yeah. It is a bit of a cross promotion.
When you do a movie with fox,
you are obligated to do a certain amount of.
Thats to day. I'm happy.
I want to be here to tell you guys I love the show.
I love the contestants.
All of them deserve stars upon theirs.
Everybody down on the spec loves you, toO.
Take a shot of the feet. Those are randy's shoes.
Exactly.
Nice.
I might need a shovel over here, by the way.
Jim carrey, ladies and gentlemen!
Thank you.
Don't pay any attention to me.
I'll be on a rampage.
We had so many calls and e-mails that we are changing next week's theme.
We will do more from the lennon-mccartney songbook.
Here with a tribute to john and paul, america, your top 12.
Welcome back to "american idol. "
It is wednesday night.
Which means we are looking down the barrel of another dramatic elimination.
Before we get there, here is a recap of last night's incredible show.
Take a look.
It's been a hard day's night for our top 12.
Six girls.
Six guys performing songs from the most definitive collection of all time.
The lennon-mccartney songbook.
Chikezie smashed it!
Move around on this stage.
Feel it, baby! Feel it, huh?
This is a big deal. Top 12.
You are soaking wet, my maN.
Soaking wet!
This reminds me six years ago, exactly the same week, kelly clarkson.
Exactly.
Tonight, if I'm being honest with you,
it was all a little bit student in a bedroom at midnight.
My advice to you is when the sun goes down, leave that student's room.
Run for cover.
Ryan?
Yes.
Careful.
Why?
Just be careful.
Because you have nothing clever to say right now.
That's right.
You gave a very heartfelt performance.
I love that, man.
I'm a fan.
You sounded like dolly parton on heliuM.
Oh, stop.
Paula, would you say simon gave her bad advice?
You are being really, really obnoxious.
Hand it back to the contestant, ryan.
In a second, I will.
When you become host, you can work this out.
Forgetting the lyrics, it gets a little tougH.
You can never let it show on your face.
Never let it show on your face, my dear.
This is like the best competition, the best season of talenT.
I'm blown away.
Blown away by you.
If this show remains a talent competition, rather than a popularity competition,
you actually could win this entire show.
Who will get the ticket to ride?
Your votes are in. And it is time for the results.
Er in fantastic.
Your top 12.
These people are really going through it.
Let's get to it.
I'm looking for three people with the lowest number of votes.
Your bottom three.
Down go the lightS.
Here we go. Good luck to all of yoU.
Would carly, michael, jason, and syesha please stand uP.

Would you come down here and join me on the stage, please.
Syesha mercado, ladies and gentlemen.
Now, there is a chance that she leaves us tonight.
Randy, would that be the wrong choice?
Yeah. That would be the wrong choice, ryan. Definitely.
Paula?
Without question. The wrong choice.
Simon, does she deserve to be in the bottom three tonight?
Yeah.
Okay.
With that uncomfortable moment...
Yeah, reallY.
We will ask if you would sing one more time.
Could be your last time on the stage. We will find out soon.
Ladies and gentlemen, syesha mercado.
Syesha.
That has to be one of the toughest things to do.
Be standing in that moment and then have to sing live on national television.
She could be in trouble tonight, america.
Two more people will be joining her.
We will find out who that is and what goes down live after the break.

Now back to the results.
Syesha is the first into the bottom three and could face elimination within this houR.
Trust me.
No one up here wants to leave the show.
Idol has touched these contestants in a lot of different ways.
Watch this tape.
It is crazy how much your life changes through all of this.
One day you are going to school.
Now you are here doing photo shoots and interviews and singing.
I remember myself this time last year.
You know, thinking, man, I want to be that guy.
Next year.
Yeah, baby.
It is like I'm living my dream right now.
I am living my dreaM.
That is a beautiful thing.
It's been a huge change for me.
I'm going from such a small life to this huge world that
I never would have been introduced to unless it was american idol.
It is really insane.
Now people know my name.
Hey, chikezie.
My life is nothing like it was a month ago.
Instead of, you know, me being in charge and taking control of things,
I'm just kind of following whoever tells me what to do because I'm lost.
Yeah!
All right.
We will give you a chance to pick up the phone and talk to these contestants in just a bit.
First, let's get back to the results.
I need two more people to join syesha in the bottom three.

Let's do that song. All right
Kristy lee cook, ladies and gentlemen.
