UPDATE:  If you missed the show, I’m embedded the performances below.

The Dove Awards, celebrating the best in Christian music, air Tuesday night.

And we just might get to see four former American Idol contestants perform together.

Mandisa was among the Dove Award nominees and performed at the event with Ruben Studdard, Phil Stacey and Danny Gokey.

The awards show was filmed last Thursday in Atlanta and will air at 8 and 10 p.m. Tuesday on the Gospel Music Channel.

Spoiler alert: If you plan to watch the show, and don’t want to know how Mandisa did, stop reading here.

Mandisa was nominated as female artist of the year and for pop/contemporary album of the year for “What If We Were Real.”

“Blessings” by Laura Story won the latter award; Natalie Grant won the former.

But Mandisa was one of 24 artists featured on “The Story,” which won for special event album of the year.

Mandisa finished ninth on Idol back in Season 5, but has released three successful Christian albums since then.

“What If We Were Real” reached number two on Billboard’s Christian albums chart and produced a number one single in “Stronger.”

The performances

Phil Stacey, Danny Gokey: “Lean on Me”

Mandisa: “Stronger”

Ruben Studdard: “I Need an Angel”
