IDOL's Top 9 Finalists to Sing Songs of Lennox and McCartney on April 6 Episode

Finalist Didi Benami was eliminated tonight on AMERICAN IDOL after she received the fewest of America's votes. On Tuesday's performance show, the Top 10 performed R&B/Soul songs, and Benami, 23, from Knoxville, TN, sang "What Becomes of the Broken Hearted." In addition, this week's mentor, Usher, performed "OMG" with Will.i.am, Diddy and Dirty Money had the audience on its feet with "Hello, Good Morning" and Ruben Studdard sang his latest hit, "Don't Make ‘Em Like U No More."

On Tuesday, April 6 (8:00-10:00 PM ET live/PT tape-delayed), the Top 9 finalists -Crystal Bowersox, Lee Dewyze, Andrew Garcia, Casey James, Aaron Kelly, Michael Lynche, Siobhan Magnus, Katie Stevens and Tim Urban - will perform selections from the legendary songbook of John Lennon and Paul McCartney.

Tune in the following night, Wednesday, April 7 (9:00-10:00 PM ET live/PT tape-delayed), to see Rihanna perform her hit "Te Amo" and to find out who receives enough votes to stay in the competition.
