The final two contestants were Lady K and Tristen Gressett — and after Perry and Bryan briefly discussed, they chose Lady K to move on to the next round. "He's a rock and roller," Perry continued of Gressett's performance of "You Can't Always Get What You Want." "And it's really challenging for that genre sometimes to get really far, because it's not about who's the best singer — you have to check a little bit of a lot of boxes. If the contestant chose to perform their song they would get a point — and after a quick comeback by Perry, 37, she and Bryan, 45, ended up with a tie and total of four votes each.

'American Idol': Katy Perry Needs 'Extra Therapy' After Awkward ... (Showbiz Cheat Sheet)

Things got a bit awkward during 'American Idol' on Monday night when a contestant sang a song by John Mayer, Katy Perry's ex.

Perry then threw herself under the judge’s table for a few moments before joking that Lionel Richie and Luke Bryan sabotaged her. Thankfully, there seems to be no animosity between Perry and Mayer, at least on Mayer’s side of things. Perry is now happily married to Orlando Bloom, and the two share a daughter. However, she still felt uncomfortable when Mayer came up in conversation during American Idol on Monday. The judges had been playing Judge’s Song Contest, where each judge anonymously submitted songs for the Top 11 Idol contestants to choose from. Perry and Mayer’s on-off relationship began in 2012, not long after she divorced actor Russel Brand. The two were frequently spotted out together over the course of the next year and a half. John Mayer is still a bit of a sore spot for Katy Perry, as American Idol fans learned on Monday, April 25.
