American Idol‘s staple Top 24 has become the Top 26 in the latest season, with the final Top 10 recently revealed.
Judges Katy Perry, Lionel Richie, and Luke Bryan sent Lucy Love and fan-favorite Nutsa home in the previous episode, much to their surprise. Now ten of the Top 26, the judges, and host Ryan Seacrest are in the final throws of the competition following “Rock and Roll Hall of Fame” night.
There are plenty of contestants this season, many with their own social media following. Could some online popularity be the deciding factor in giving contestants an edge over the ones with less social media presence?
We can only wait and see if their endurance matches their social media numbers. Using their official American Idol YouTube performance videos, we rank the most likely contestant to win Season 21.
Scroll down below to see the contestants ranked from least to most probable to win as of this week. Remember that these rankings may change as social media metrics constantly fluctuate.
