On Sunday night, 'American Idol' season 17 kicked off with their Hollywood Week. In this boot camp, the hopefuls that were given a ticket to Hollywood were filtered down as judges Lionel Richie, Katy Perry, and Luke Bryan brutally cut out contestants they thought needed more practice to compete for the title. 

Throughout the episode, apart from impeccable singing, and heartwarming performances, there were also a lot of emotions and crying that happened not just among the contestants, but the judges as well. For the first round of Hollywood week, the contestants were divided into groups of ten and gave solo performances. After their performances, they were told if they were to remain in the competition or be eliminated.
