X Factor Final 16: Jillian Jensen Cut By Demi Lovato, Both Cry After Elimination [Video]
The X-Factor episode which saw the judges choosing the top 16 was rebroadcasted in its entirety on Tuesday, Oct.23.
After Fox threw the hit reality singing competition show a curveball by showing only half of Episode 11 last week, fans were able to see the broadcast in full to learn which of their favorite acts made the final 16.
Episode 11 featured the big reveal at the judges' homes for their respective categories - Britney Spears' Teens, L.A. Reid's Over 25s, Demi Lovato's Young Adults, and Simon Cowell's Groups.
The show's biggest highlight was the shocking elimination of bully victim Jillian Jensen. Because of her emotional audition and story, Lovato took Jensen to another room separately to deliver the news.
"I'm so sorry," said Lovato who then wiped the tears off her own face. "It sucks," she added. One of Lovato's four picks that made the cut, Jennel Garcia, had eavesdropped on Lovato's private meeting until she heard Jillian's sobs. "I'm almost positive that's a good cry," Garcia told the cameras.
"You did everything you could, okay?" Garcia told Jensen as she consoled her. Jensen then met with another one of Lovato's contestants that didn't make the cut, Nick Youngerman. A new report revealed that Jensen and Youngerman are now dating.
The Top 16 will move forward to the Live Shows where viewers will have the chance to vote for their favorite.
The Live Shows begin Nov. 1, with new co-hosts Khloe Kardashian and Mario Lopez.
The following is a list of the Top 16 acts that made the final cut by their respective categories,
