American Idol 2020 Hollywood Week wrapped up Monday night as the judges heard the final solo rounds and decided which 40 contestants would be heading to sing in Hawaii for the showcase round.
Once again, the performances were edited down, and some standouts weren’t even shown, so we can’t really do a legitimate recap, so let’s just take a look at the 40 contestants we will see perform in Hawaii.

Did any of your favorites not make the cut? It was sad to see Margie Mays and Jonny West get split up, but Margie says she will be rooting for her boyfriend all the way.
