'American Idol' fans are furious Colby Swift got sent home in episode 7, request judges to bring singer back
Even though fans and viewers are happy most of their favorites have made it through, some were not happy country singer Colby Swift was sent home for a silly mistake
'American Idol' season 17 recently premiered on ABC. Hundreds of hopeful contestants auditioned hoping to make it through and compete for this season's title. But sadly, not all could make it. During the auditions, a total of 175 contestants were selected and sent to Hollywood.
On Sunday and Monday, we witnessed Hollywood week where the 175 contestants competed for a place in the next round. Through the Hollywood week episodes, we witnessed real good talent from contestants, there were quite a number of contestants who also performed their original songs, and others covered songs in a style that made it look like it's their own. These contestants left the judges shocked, which made it harder for them when it came to sending someone home.
