American Idol 2012 Top 3 Results Night: Joshua Ledet Eliminated!

Joshua Ledet got the boot on American Idol 2012 Top 3 Results Show (Elimination Night) May 17 (May 18 in Manila). 

Joshua joined the ranks of Haley Reinhart, Syesha Mercado, Elliot Yamin, Melinda Doolittle, Jasmine Trias and other Idol Top 3 finalist who missed out the opportunity to be a member of American Idol Top 2 and the chance to compete in the finale.

Joshua Ledet failed to make it to the finale and has just been voted out of American Idol Season 11

The American Idol Season 11 Top 2 spots were snatched by Jessica Sanchez and Phillip Phillips, who will battle it all out for next week's finale (May 22 performance and May 23 results show).

Before Joshua made his final vow on the American Idol stage, Idol alumnus and Season 8 runner-up Adam Lambert performed his new song, Never Close Our Eyes (from his sophomore album "Trespassing" which dropped May 15) while Lisa Marie Presley sang You Ain’t Seen Nothin’ Yet, her latest single from her new album “Storm & Grace.” 

Joshua Ledet is one of the favorites to make it in the finale and his performances last night earned rave reviews from the judges, who again gave Joshua a standing ovation for his performance of Etta James' classic, I'd Rather Go Blind which was picked for him by Randy Jackson. He also tackled John Lennon's Imagine and Mary J. Blige's No More Drama to a great extent.

Now that we have our American Idol 2012 Top 2 in the person of Jessica Sanchez and Phillip Phillips, it's time to set our minds for the finale on May 22nd and 23rd. 

American Idol Season 11 Top 2 - Jessica Sanchez and Phillip Phillips

Who will be crowned as the 11th American Idol winner? Well, it's up to America on who they want to win. I'm just hoping that whoever wins this thing, all the eliminated talented contestants will be given their own spots in the music industry.

(Honestly, been hoping for a girl to win this season and now keeping my fingers crossed for Jessica's victory.)
