Tonight, 3 wonderful VFTW contenders emerged: Brielle Von Hugel who was shitting on the dock of the bay, Baylie Brown who couldn't find the correct notes if her life depended on it, and Haley Johnsen who added so many weird notes to her song it was almost unrecognizable. And in the end, weird won out, as VFTW encourages you to support Haley. Her number is 1-866-436-5709, or text VOTE to 5709, or vote at AmericanIdol.com. Heck, do all 3. Haley is an IBW so she's going to need all the help she can get to move on. Though if Baylie or Brielle made it too, we wouldn't complain!
Fun fact: VFTW loves our Haleys! This is the 3rd Haley we've voted for after a teenage country singer and a sassy Chicagoan.
The Idol Pad has its first top 24 spoilers out for the season, so here are some of the people who made it to the point that you'll be able to vote for them. There will also apparently be a fill top 24 list released tonight after the special Sunday show.

1. Baylie Brown (from AI season 6)
2. Shannon Magrane (the tall 15 year old)

4. Haley Johnsen (we haven't seen her yet)
The males that are in the top 24 so far:
