On Wednesday, April 20 (8:00-9:30 PM ET live/PT tape-delayed), the Top 7 finalists - Casey Abrams, Lauren Alaina, James Durbin, Stefano Langone, Jacob Lusk, Scotty McCreery and Haley Reinhart - return to the IDOL stage to perform songs from the 21st century.

Tune in the following night, Thursday, April 21 (8:00-9:00 PM ET live/PT tape-delayed), to the live results show to find out who receives enough votes to stay in the competition and who is sent home. In addition, Season Seven IDOL winner David Cook will perform his latest hit, "The Last Goodbye," and pop sensation Katy Perry will perform "E.T.," the fourth No. 1 single off her Grammy-nominated album "Teenage Dream."
