Idol's Danny Gokey: "Dream" Scream May Have Been My Downfall

Idol Finals Forecast: Which Two Will Be Left Standing?

And then there were four.

Following a "cruel" twist and without a Judges Save to pull him from the ashes a second time, Matt Giraud got sent home this week. That sets up American Idol Season 8's final four as follows: Adam Lambert, Allison Iraheta, Danny Gokey and Kris Allen.
