Melissa McGhee forgot the words to her song on Tuesday‘s “American Idol” — on Wednesday she paid the price. McGhee, who stumbled with some of the lyrics in an otherwise smooth rendition of Stevie Wonder ‘s “Lately,” became the first of the final dozen to be voted off the top-rated Fox show.
“In my opinion, this was your best performance so far,” Cowell said on Tuesday‘s program.
Just barely escaping viewer-elimination were Ace Young and Lisa Tucker, who had the next lowest vote tallies.
Young, who looks the part with long locks and blue eyes, drew sympathy from judge Paula Abdul , who shook her head about the vote count, saying, “I don‘t get it.”
Wednesday‘s elimination show featured a performance by Wonder, who sang a single, “My Love is on Fire,” from his new record, “A Time to Love.” In Tuesday‘s sing-off, contestants performed Wonder‘s hits in a tribute to the Grammy-winning artist.
Host Ryan Seacrest said on Wednesday‘s program that viewers called in more than 32 million votes to determine the top hopefuls.
The final Idol will be named May 24.
