The finals are set on American Idol.
Next Monday night, Hannah Harper, Keyla Richardson and Jordan McCullough will square off for the Season 24 American Idol crown.
They advanced following a Monday night show that included duets with members of Season 5 of American Idol, mentoring by original judge Randy Jackson and guest judging by original judge Paula Abdul.
Hannah has been a favorite to make the show since her viral audition with an original song called “String Cheese.”
Keyla and Jordan have been consistently outstanding on the show, but Chris Tungeth and Braden Rumfelt were coming on strong and performed well again Monday night.
Idol host Ryan Seacrest announced Hannah as a finalist first, then Keyla, leaving Jordan standing center stage with Chris and Braden.
He wound up getting the last spot in next week’s three-hour season finale.
Here’s a photo gallery from Monday’s show.
