The voters got it right for the fourth consecutive week. Well done, voters. Heejun Han is Heejun Gone. Hollie Cavanagh and Skylar Laine also landed in the bottom three; one of them an indicator of a contestant nearing the end of her run (Hollie), the other an indicator of a contestant’s fanbase falling asleep (Skylar).

6: Skylar- Shocked that she wasn’t safe this week

4: Joshua- Bottom three getting harder to avoid as they pare down

3: Jessica- Momentum seems to be flattening out, needs to kill an uptempo song

2: Colton- Young cute boys always get a pass from the judges

1: Phil- He ain’t Johnny Lang, but Lang ain’t walking through that door
