Auditions
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States, the Idol Across America virtual auditions program returned from last season. The remote auditions took place from August 5 to October 28, 2021, as well as a number of open-call auditions, and from these, the producers selected the contestants who can then audition in front of the judges.[5]
American Idol introduced the "platinum ticket" during the audition round in celebration of the show's twentieth season. A total of three platinum tickets were awarded and gave the recipients the opportunity to advance directly to the second round of Hollywood Week and choose their partners for that week's Duet Challenge before the remaining contestants were paired. The platinum ticket recipients were HunterGirl, Kenedi Anderson, and Jay.[6][7]

Hollywood Week
Hollywood Week was filmed December 6–9, 2021, at the Orpheum Theatre in Los Angeles, California. The Genre and Duet Challenges from the last two seasons return. In the Genre Challenge, contestants chose groups based on a specific genre and were mentored by a former Idol alum: season 10 runner-up Lauren Alaina (Country), season 2 winner Ruben Studdard (R&B), season 9 winner Lee DeWyze (Indie folk), season 10 finalist Haley Reinhart (Soul), season 7 winner David Cook (Rock), and season 6 winner Jordin Sparks (Pop). After all the contestants in their respective groups performed, the judges brought them to the stage and made their decisions. Those who advanced moved onto the Duet Challenge. After the platinum ticket holders chose their duet partners, the judges paired the remaining contestants.[8] The duets were given twelve hours to rehearse, which included a consultation with a vocal coach, a stage rehearsal, and a session for advice from one of the judges. Those who passed the Duet Challenge advanced to the Showstopper Round.
Showstopper Round
The Showstopper Round aired on April 4, featuring the top fifty-nine (thirty-three aired) performing for the judges and a live audience at the Orpheum Theatre. The following day, the judges narrowed the number of contestants down to twenty-four in the Final Judgment. The following is a list of the contestants who performed, the song they performed at the Showstopper, and if they advanced or not.
