'The recently aired episode of 'American Idol' left a lot of fans fuming. After the Top 14 performers gave their performance, the audience were given a small window of time to vote for the contestants they believed deserved to be on the Top 11 list.

The show's host Ryan Seacrest finally announced the results towards the end of the episode and revealed that Ava Maybee, Allegra Miles, and Dan Marshall had been voted out, while the remaining 11 contestants made the cut to the Top 11 round. Fans were annoyed when they realized that Noah Thompson and Mike Parker managed to get through, while talented performers like Allegra and Ava were shown the door.
