LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: On 'American Idol' Season 21, some of the most popular contestants were bid an emotional adieu in the Showstopper round. While Kaeyra, Warren Peay, Nutsa and other aspiring singers made it to the Top 24, other contestants' Idol journeys ended.

Among the singers who returned home was Adin Boyer, who uses music to overcome his sensory problems caused by autism. Already during the Hollywood week, Adin had difficulty finding a partner. But this time Adin failed to impress the judges Katy Perry, Lionel Richie and Luke Bryan. However, social media users said that the jury made the wrong decision to eliminate Adin.

Adin Boyer delivered a stunning performance on 'Viva La Vida' by Coldplay. While Lionel was hugely impressed with Adin's stage presence, he found his vocals aren't strong enough for Top 24. But Lionel also assured Adin that it's not the end of his career, it's just the beginning. Lionel noted that Adin has a definite place in show business. 'American Idol' judge later urged Adin to begin songwriting and producing as Lionel noted, "I want to write a song with you."

Your journey with #AmericanIdol may end, but this is just the beginning for you @Adinboyer."

A Twitter user noted, "Adin not making top 24 is a HORRIBLE decision." Another viewer said, "@AdinBoyer deserves to be in over Nutsa!
