Hollie Cavanagh is less than 'Perfect' on 'American Idol'

Hollie Cavanagh performed "Perfect" on Wednesday, and while it was better than last week, she was still the least successful this round.
On a night where the “American Idol” judges were again inclined to be kind, the trio of Randy Jackson, Jennifer Lopez and Steven Tyler sent a message to the audience at home: “Do we really need to bring Hollie Cavanagh back next week?”
First of all, kudos to “Idol” for making it easy for the contestants to succeed this week. The theme was songs from the current decade, so everyone sang something that had been released in the past three years. It sure beats hearing them take on songs from a generation or two ago and try to make them relevant.
Hollie was looking to send a message by choosing to perform Pink's "Perfect," and while she may never feel like she’s less than perfect, the reaction from the judges was tepid at best. J.Lo told her she sang beautifully but “we'll see how it all pans out,” which is hardly a ringing endorsement. And she was the most positive of the three.
