'American Idol' 2023 hopefuls stunned the judges with their thrilling and electrifying performances with the band during round one of Showstopper. However, the band performance will continue in the upcoming episode.

The judges will cut down the singers from the top 55 directly to the Top 24 as the hopefuls performed live in front of an audience at the Los Angeles Theater. Only the best singers will make it to the Top 24 and advance to two nights of performances in Hawaii.

Pjae: Pjae stunned the judges with his soulful falsetto on 'I Want You' by Luke James.

Malik Heard:  Malik performed 'Can We Talk' by Tevin Campbell but wasn't the first choice to Top 24. But later the judges changed their mind and decided to advance Malik to 'America's vote'.
