Julia's run on American Idol has come to an end

It was "Adele Night" on American Idol, with a chance to make it to the Top 5. On paper, this would seem to be a no-brainer, since Julia Gagnon crushed an Adele song earlier in the competition, but when the votes were cast at the end of the show, her name was not called, after her impressive cover of "Set Fire To The Rain"

Throughout this incredible streak, Julia has gained a ton of fans, and they took the news pretty hard

Julia, it was an incredible night watching you deliver two solid performances. YOU ARE OUR MAINE IDOL and I look forward to seeing you on tour with your American Idol family. Thank "you" for taking us along on this journey, and I am so looking forward to watching your singing career continue to blossom!
