American Idol 2024 Top 24 POLL Results and Your Predictions
American Idol 2024 is moving quickly: the Top 24 performances aired across two nights, and a three-hour episode on Sunday, April 14 will reveal the Top 20. In the format this season, America’s vote will determine which two singers are eliminated from each night’s performances. While viewers await the official results, the polls posted after each show give a snapshot of fan sentiment and predictions.
Note: the Top 20 reveal was filmed on Wednesday night (April 10), so spoilers are already circulating. If you don’t want the outcome spoiled, please avoid reading comments that discuss results and be courteous to other fans who want to stay surprised.
A dedicated spoilers discussion will be published for those who want to compare predictions to the actual eliminations — save that conversation for spoiler-friendly threads so everyone can enjoy the live reveals.
Lauren Spencer-Smith returns to American Idol
Sunday’s episode will feature a return performance by Season 18 Top 24 contestant Lauren Spencer-Smith. Lauren originally competed on the 2020 season, when COVID-19 restrictions forced contestants to film remotely for later rounds. Although she didn’t progress further on the show, Lauren went on to sign with a major label and build a substantial social media following. Her songs such as “Fingers Crossed” and “Flowers” have achieved widespread streaming success.
Also scheduled to perform are singer-songwriters Paul Russell and the soulful favorite often covered by vocal competitors, Teddy Swims.

The live shows launch Monday, April 15, when the Top 14 will be revealed. All members of the Top 20 will perform again on the live stage — some celebrating a spot in the Top 10, others competing for one of four wildcards. America will vote again to determine the contestants who advance into the next round, so every live performance is critical.
