Sunday Night marks the first time that The Top14 of “American Idol” will hit the stage that as host Ryan Seacrest puts it, “the stage that created Superstars.”  That phrase could very well come true tonight as the Idol hopefuls sing for America’s vote. 

The Idol set is all-new with a catwalk and a roof that opens and closes to set the mood for a ballad or fun energetic performance to match whatever the contestants sing. 

After solo and celebrity duet performances with the top 24 contestants, the judges narrowed down the field to the top 14 finalists. Now the judges are handing over the reigns to America to start voting on who they want to crown the next Idol.  

Their fate is in your hands! 🗳 ☑️ #AmericanIdol
