Elise Testone Eliminated from American Idol; It's Down to Five

After a season-high 58 million votes cast Wednesday night, American Idol viewers cast the fewest for Elise Testone, who was eliminated on last night's show. 

The program also featured Katy Perry who performed “Part of Me,” and an appearance by Idol Season 10 finalist Stefano Langone who sang his new single, “I’m On A Roll,” featuring Ben J of New Boyz. In addition, the official touring Queen tribute, The Queen Extravaganza, performed Queen’s classic smash hit “Somebody To Love,” with original Queen members Brian May and Roger Taylor.
