Idol Chatter & Voice Views

Well, that’s a first.

For the first time since the American Idol Season 15 finals began, La’Porsha Renae did not turn in the week’s most popular performance based on YouTube views.

In fact, the Season 15 front-runner finished second and fourth on this week’s most popular list.

Trent Harmon landed at number one with his performance of Sia’s “Chandelier.” In fact, one could argue he had the strongest week of any contestant on American Idol.

And it’s no surprise that Dalton Rapattoni’s show-closing performance of “Bird Set Free” was also very popular. He landed at number three.

Will it be enough to land him a spot on next week’s Top 3 show.

We’ll find out soon. The Top 4 take the stage at 8 p.m.

Check back then. I’ll be live blogging with song by song grades.
