White, who also sang Neil Diamond's "I Am, I Said," was alternately praised and criticized by the judges in recent weeks, culminating with a resounding thud when Simon called her rendition of "I'm a Believer" "a nightmare." In the bottom two with Brooke was Syesha Mercado, the only remaining female contestant and now one of the final four. After Brooke's elimination was announced, Brooke couldn't contain her tears, but told fans that she was in "that happy, grateful mood," and added, "I just want to say 'thank you.'"

Neil Diamond and Natasha Bedingfield rocked the "Idol" stage last night as guest performers.
