American Idol 2018 Week 3 Recap: Watch Auditions & Group Performances from Hollywood Week
American Idol 2018 auditions finally came to a close this week, but not before some exciting new additions had their opportunity to perform for judges Katy Perry, Luke Bryan and Lionel Richie. Once again, the search for American Idol 2018 contestants took the judges across the country where they saw a variety of talented performers from all walks of life and with unique styles and sounds. From there, it was finally time to begin Hollywood Week, where the contestants would really be put to the test. First up, the Line of Ten performances where they'd finally get to see what the competition looked like and the judges began the tough job of deciding who could stay and who was headed home. Then came the notoriously difficult group performances where contestants had one night to pull together and both work together as a group and still stand out on their own. There were definitely some struggles, and some tough eliminations, and here are some of the highlights you won't want to miss.
