Tonight's episode featured performances by punk legend and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee Iggy Pop and Season Four IDOL finalist Constantine Maroulis.
On Wednesday, April 13 (8:00-9:30 PM ET live/PT tape-delayed), the Top 8 finalists - Casey Abrams, Lauren Alaina, James Durbin, Stefano Langone, Jacob Lusk, Scotty McCreery, Paul McDonald and Haley Reinhart - return to the IDOL stage to perform songs from the movies.
Tune in the following night, Thursday, April 14 (8:00-9:00 PM ET live/PT tape-delayed), to the live results show to find out who receives enough votes to stay in the competition and who is sent home. In addition, Grammy Award-winning pop icon Rihanna will take the stage and Season One IDOL winner Kelly Clarkson and country music superstar Jason Aldean will perform their duet, "Don't You Wanna Stay."
