The fans of ‘American Idol’ were left fuming after singer Kelsie Dolin got evicted from the show in the latest episode of Season 20. Titled as the ‘Showstoppers’, the latest episode saw contestants battling for the Top 24 spot a day after they showed their exceptional singing skills in the duets round.
 
Kelsie Dolin, who became a fan favorite after she revealed how nervous she has been all her life over performing on stage, failed to leave a lasting impression on the judges namely Katy Perry, Luke Bryan, and Lionel Richie. The trio felt she was not prepared enough to grab a coveted spot on the Top 24 list. This left social media users furious as they logged into Twitter and claimed that Kelsie was clearly robbed. Her duet partner Betty Maxwell too got eliminated from the show.
