Michael Lynche eliminated from American Idol after Free Willy song

"American Idol" Songs from the Cinema night did its deed, and now there are only three.

After the Top 4 watch a montage of former "Idol" contestants getting the VIP treatment in their hometowns and Fantasia Barrino's performance of "Bittersweet," Ryan Seacrest begins with his weekly drawn-out torture.First person safe: Casey James. We can't say we're surprised, but really, America?

After a killer Daughtry performance, we then learn that Lee Dewyze is sticking around. So, the Bottom Two are Michael Lynche and Crystal Bowersox. Hmm, we kinda know who it's going to be. (Oh, and totally unrelated, but we loved she was wearing a t-shirt with two penguins hold hands, er, flippers.)

But first, a Bon Jovi performance. It's no "Livin' on a Prayer," but fine.

So, Ryan finally puts us out of our misery. Big Mike is taking the big hike home.

Crystal joins Lee and Casey in the Top 3.
