Idol Chatter & Voice Views

The Top 24 will take the stage Sunday and Monday on American Idol, with 12 performances each night.

Fan voting also begins during those performances. And by April 21 — just 11 days away — Idol will be revealing its Top 14 for Seson 23.

That means another major cut is coming.

So lets look at who’s entering the next two weeks with the largest fan bases.

Drew Ryn is far and away the leader in terms of followers on Instagram and TikTok. I was a bit surprised at how many followers MKY, Mattie Pruitt and Jamal Roberts already have on TikTok.

I was not surprised by the growing fan base for Slater Nalley and Baylee Littrell, both of whom seem to be gaining traction as fan favorites.

Here are the number of Instagram and TikTok followers for each member of the Top 24 as of just after midnight Thursday.
