American Idol 2025 Top 7 RANKED. How would you rate the contestants? Plus Facebook numbers!
American Idol 2025 continues broadcasting LIVE COAST TO COAST. On Sunday (May 11) and Monday (May 12). Both nights are a celebration of Disney songs. The Top 7 song spoilers are out now. By the end of the episode, a Top 5 will be revealed. Then on Monday, it’s back to Disneyland and more Disney songs. The Top 5 will each perform two songs. Lin-Manuel Miranda will serve as mentor both nights. Season 21 winner, Iam Tongi will perform “Hawaiian Roller Coaster Ride” from Disney’s new movie, Lilo & Stitch on Monday. By the end of the episode, the Top 3 heading to the May 18 finale will be revealed!
In the meantime, let’s rank the Top 7. The ranking below represents the “power” each contestant brings into the upcoming shows based on past performances and results. How would you rank the Top 7?
American Idol Top 8 & 7 Performances Facebook Rankings
But first, let’s take a look at Facebook Views. Posted below are numbers from both the Top 10 (Top 8 revealed)show from last Sunday and last Monday’s Top 8 episode (Top 7 revealed).
John Foster, the young country singer, is running away with the Facebook views. He doubles or nearly doubles the views of the second most viewed contestant, Jamal Roberts. Breanna Nix moved up into 3rd place for both episodes. She had been slipping a few weeks prior. Note that Gabby Samone came in 7th place after last Sunday’s show, but that climbed back up to 4th place after Monday’s show.
Once again, it’s worth noting that Josh King and Mattie Pruitt both ranked low views for Sunday night’s show, and then ended up in the bottom 2 on Monday’s show. That seems to be a trend. Josh was bound to go home no matter who was in the bottom 2 with him. The judges saved him once at the Top 14, they weren’t going to save him again.
Note that Thunderstorm Artis and Slater Nalley had the lowest number of views from Monday night’s show. Will they leave the competition on Sunday? I would not be surprised. Thunderstorm’s Sunday views improved after several weeks of low views. Slater also struggles week to week. At this point a John-Jamal-Breanna-Gabby-Mattie Top 5 seems reasonable. However, Slater or Thunderstorm could sneak in there instead of Mattie (she had to be saved last week, after all). John-Jamal-Breanna could very well be the Top 3 going into the May 18 finale.

American Idol 2025 Top 7 Rankings
7. Mattie Pruitt
Mattie holds the number 7 spot after the judges needed to save her last Monday. She may advance to the Top 5 anyway. That Top 5 spot is going to come down to either her, Thunderstorm or Slater. It depends on performances, performance order, etc. Mattie’s Top 7 song pick is Remember Me from Coco. It’s an emotional ballad, and if she connects to the audience–a thing she struggles to do at times–she could advance to the next round.
6. Thunderstorm Artis
As previously mentioned, Thunderstorm is either in the middle or bottom when it comes to Facebook views. His song choice for Top 7 is Colors of the Wind from Pocahontas. It’s a boring song choice. But Thunderstorm does have a knack for putting his own spin on songs. The judges seem to love him and may keep hyping him to advance.
5. Slater Nalley
Can You Feel the Love Tonight, from The Lion King, is Slater’s song choice. I’m trying to imagine the song all twanged up, and the image is failing me. A better choice would have been a Randy Newman cover like You’ve Got A Friend in Me. But John is already covering a Randy Newman song.
4. Gabby Samone
Gabby’s Top 7 song pick, How Far I’ll Go from Mulan has been covered a bunch on Idol, but it’s a good song pick for her. She’ll have no trouble breathing new life into the song. If she’s eliminated on Sunday, that will certainly be a shock boot. She’s been consistently terrific all season.
3. Breanna Nix
Breanna’s Top 7 song pick, Reflection from Mulan, has the potential to serve as a huge showstopper for the big voiced singer. She has pipes so sturdy and rangy she rarely falters. She’s Top 5 for sure.
2. Jamal Roberts
Could Jamal win it all? Never say never. John probably has this, but Jamal is the best all round talent left in the competition. He can sing, dance, deliver an emotional ballad. He can do it ALL. He’s my pick to win. This week, he swings for the fences with I Can Go the Distance from Hercules. All of his performances tend to be “moments” but Sunday could be huge.
1. John Foster
At this point, the competition is John’s to lose. He’s so popular, it probably doesn’t matter what he sings. His Top 7 song pick, Almost There from The Princess and the Frog will probably not be a huge moment for the singer. But it has the potential to show off John’s irresistible charm.
American Idol airs Sunday and Monday on ABC at 8 pm, streaming next day on HULU
