What happened to the sisters on American Idol? When 17-year-old Taryn Coccia auditioned in front of Katy Perry, Lionel Richie, and Luke Bryan, she brought along her big sister Payton Taylor, 20, to play guitar for her. But Taryn also caught the judges' eyes and she was allowed to audition as well, and even though both sisters have very different styles and voices, their individual talents earned them each a golden ticket to Hollywood. But fans won't be seeing Taryn or Payton advance in the competition and they both took to Instagram on Sunday, April 1 to explain why. "I’m so sorry to disappoint. You won’t be seeing [Payton] and I on [American Idol] tonight," Taryn wrote on Instagram. "Although we received our golden tickets to Hollywood, we decided that we want to drive our own careers in the direction we want." A post shared by Taryn Coccia (@taryncoccia) on Apr 1, 2018 at 5:...

“American Idol” contestant Britney Holmes may have been told “no” by the judges on Monday night’s episode, but thanks to a twist, she’s back on the show. Earlier this year Holmes was one of three eliminated contestants who were spotlighted during ABC’s airing of the American Music Awards. Audiences got to vote for which artist they wanted to see go through to Hollywood, and Britney received the most votes. Thus, even though Katy Perry, Lionel Richie and Luke Bryan sent her home on Monday night, audiences will be seeing her again.

In his recap of Monday’s audition, our live-blogger Denton Davidson wrote, “Britney Holmes is a vocal coach who is inspired by her father and ’90s-era singers like Whitney Houston. She’s taking on ‘I Have Nothing,’ a song that has humiliated countless singing competition castoffs. Britney’s version was just okay.

Remember that episode of Full House where D.J. auditions for a cereal commercial, only to have it inadvertently stolen out from under her by Stephanie?
That’s the situation American Idol nearly found itself in on Monday when Katy Perry and Lionel Richie asked 20-year-old Payton Taylor — who only attended the auditions to play back-up guitar for her sister, 18-year-old Taryn Coccia — to step up to the spotlight and take her own shot at stardom.
Fortunately, Idol‘s version of this story ended with both sisters getting golden tickets, but methinks the drama is far from over. I’ve...
