Jennifer Hudson - Think Like a Man Ft. Ne-yo AMERICAN IDOL Top 7 Result show.FLV video free download

Amazing performance from Jennifer Hudson and Ne-yo during The American Idol Top 7 Result show

Did You Notice the History of the Save?

It's an event that has only happened 4 times in American Idol history -- the judges' save! On Thursday, April 12th the judges saved Jessica Sanchez from elimination, but did you notice a Jennifer Hudson coincidence?

Season 3 superstar Jennifer Hudson has been a guest performer on American Idol three times. EACH of those three times that she was at the show, the judges used the save: Season 8 Top 7 (Matt Giraud), Season 10 Top 11 (Casey Abrams), and Season 11 Top 7 (Jessica Sanchez). The other save went to Michael Lynche during Top 9 week of Season 9. When Ryan Seacrest, first introduced the save in 2009, he said the save was inspired by a few past favorites who went home early, including Jennifer. During Season 3, Jennifer was shockingly eliminated this week -- at the Top 7 mark -- but she persevered and became the first Idol to win both an Academy Award and a Grammy Award.

Did you notice that Jessica became the first girl to be saved by the judges? And did you notice that the save has always been used by Top 7 week?

What will happen next? All we know is to expect the unexpected, and now that the save has been used, it's all up to you America! Be sure to vote every Wednesday night to try and save your fave.
