‘American Idol’ Season 21 airs duets week on April 3, 2023

It’s time for duets week in American Idol 2023, as Hollywood week began on April 2, 2023. According to the ABC description, “contestants form dynamic duos and hit the Hollywood stage for the Duets Challenge. Platinum ticket winners handpick their duet partners and rejoin the competition in hopes of making it through to the next round.”

Viewers might’ve been missing the platinum ticket winners so far this week. Seventeen-year-old Tyson Venegas was the first to receive a platinum ticket in Las Vegas, Nevada. The judges then gave the Nashville, Tennessee platinum ticket to 15-year-old Kaylin Hedges. Cam Amen was the third platinum ticket winner. The 27-year-old brought the judges to tears with his version of Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah.”

Finally, the last platinum ticket went to 21-year-old Elijah McCormick. He won America’s Platinum Ticket during the American Music Awards 2022 — a first for the competition show.
