Another made a more direct request, exclaiming, “Fire katy! we want alanis!”

Since this season of “American Idol” is reaching its conclusion, each contestant performed twice – one solo song and one duet. To celebrate the guest judges, every song was either by Morisette or Ed Sheeran, who filled in for Richie.
