Season 24 of American Idol is getting serious.

With live shows underway, here is who is left on America's most popular singing reality show.

  • Luke Bryan, Carrie Underwood and Lionel Richie returned as judges for Season 24 of American Idol.
  • New episodes air on Monday nights at 8PM ET on ABC.
  • Jamal Roberts won Season 23 of American Idol.

The ages of the finalists range from 15 (Abayomi) to 29 years old (Kyndal Inskeep and Keyla Richardson). It's a pretty well-mixed group representing a strong collection of genres and backgrounds.

However, this mix is thinning weekly.

Tennessee, Florida and California are three states with two Top 20 finalists apiece, but Baltimore may be the single most-represented city. Both Brooks and Rae hail from the area.

As far as country goes, Lucas Leon seems most committed to the genre, but that could change with each new round. Sometimes an artist waits to reveal his/her true influences.

Who Went Home on American Idol?

Monday's (March 30) episode of American Idol sent 30 percent of the group home early, with another two finalists expected to be eliminated before the credits. However, host Ryan Seacrest threw a wrench in that.

At the start of the episode, six singers were eliminated based on Hawaii votes. They were:

Makiyah
Genevieve Howard
Kutter Bradley
Abayomi
Madison Moon
Ruby Rae

Everyone expected live voting to cost two more singers a spot, but Seacrest told the crowd that because there were so many votes, they needed more time to tabulate.

So, fans, judges and contestants will learn the Top 12 at the start of next week's episode of American Idol.
