American Idol Cuts First 4

The carnage begins as FOX's "American Idol" dumps the first 4 out of 24 contestants. Plus Paula Abdul's new video premieres. Check it out, after the jump.


Garrett Haley, Amy Davis, Colton Berry and Joanne Borgella were the 4 contestants who lasted only a single week of the semifinals.



Haley and Berry were 2 of the 4 teenagers in this year's somewhat younger group of male contestants.



Simon was particularly nasty to the 18-year old self-proclaimed Ellen Degeneres lookalike Berry to whom he said:

Finally, here is Paula Abdul's new video which premiered during last night's show, "Dance Like There's No Tomorrow".
