LOS ANGELES, CALIFORIA: Quintavious Johnson, despite his previous performances, has yet to secure his spot in the Top 14 of 'American Idol' Season 22. To ensure his continuation in the competition, he then now performed 'Make It Happen' by Mariah Carey. As a worship pastor, Quintavious brought his unique vocal style and passion to the stage, hoping to impress the judges and win over the audience. His rendition of this iconic song was his chance to prove his worth and secure his place in the next round of the competition.

Howevr, fans of the show were taken aback by what they perceived as Ryan Seacrest's rudeness towards Quintavious. Initially, Seacrest called out Quintavious's name first to announce the Top 14, leading many to believe that he had secured a spot. However, Seacrest then informed Quintavious that he hadn't made it to the list, catching him and the audience off guard.

Adding to the discomfort, Seacrest immediately asked Quintavious to sing on stage after delivering the disappointing news. This sequence of events left many fans feeling sympathetic towards Quintavious and critical of Seacrest's handling of the situation. "Well, that was kind of rude. Ryan called his name first, then said he didn't make the Top 14 and makes him sing immediately! After all that, #Quintavious was amazing!," said a user. Others were simply pissed that the gospel singer didnt make it to the safe zone. "Abi Carter in the top 14 but Quintavious isn’t??? Make it make sense." "Such BS that #Quintavious had to sing for his life @AmericanIdol, he's amazing!" said another user.
