That signifies the fate of the contestants is now on you! To become the next American Idol, contestants will have to do their absolute best to win America’s hearts.

The judges, Lionel Richie, Luke Bryan, and Katy Perry are done and dusted after selecting the top 24. Now, America gets to decide by “voting” for their favorite contestants. The voting for the esteemed show started on April 10th, 2022.

Here’s everything that you need to know about American Idol 2022 and its voting process.
