The focus will be on the Top 3 Sunday night when American Idol hosts its three-hour season finale.

Each finalist — Leah Marlene, HunterGirl and Noah Thompson — will sing original songs released a week ago.

And each will perform a Bruce Springsteen cover.

But this is an American Idol finale, which means a number of guest stars will be on hand too.

And most of them will be performing alongside standouts from the show’s Season 20 cast.

American Idol has been slowly leaking information about Sunday’s performances all week.

The rundown appears below.
