American Idol Results: And then there were 12!

America voted and the bottom girl and guy were revealed; the judges then had the final word on who would be the first Season 11 finalist to be eliminated this evening!

The night opened with a group performance of Stevie Wonder’s, “I’ll Be Loving You Always” and last night’s mentor, Mary J. Blige, as well as Season 10’s runner-up, Lauren Alaina came out to play on the Idol stage!

Jennifer Lopez looked simply amazing in a pale pink, plunging-neck leather dress and super high and spiked-up Louboutin heels!
