American Idol returns tonight as our Top 7 take the stage. It will be the same group as last week after the judges saved Jessica Sanchez.

Left in the competition are: Hollie Cavanagh; Elise Testone; Phillip Phillips; Skylar Laine; Joshua Ledet; Colton Dixon and Jessica Sanchez. My favorite performer from last week was Colton Dion. You can check out his performance from last week here!

This week each contestant will be on the American Idol stage twice, the theme for this week is Now and Then. The “singers” have to pick a #1 hit song from 2000-2012 and then sing an older soul song.

Who are you excited to see perform tonight? Who are your rooting for? Sound out in the comments and let us know!

Thursday night’s results show will feature performances by LMFAO singing their hit “Sorry for Party Rocking,” and Season 8 winner Kris Allen performing his new single, “The Vision of Love.”

We will be live blogging ‘The Performance Show’ with all the up-to-the-minute details at 8 PM EST so make sure to come back to this spot and watch the show with us.
