The two
hour Idol final took a familiar performance pattern, as one or more
contestants would begin singing a famous song from an established
artist, and then part way through it they would be joined by that
artist. The drill saw the Bee Gees take the stage to collaborate with
Siobhan Magnus and Aaron Kelly, while Michael Lynche was joined by the
Doobie Brothers’ Michael McDonald in a case of dueling Michaels. Later,
an ensemble of female contestants was joined by Christina Aguilera, who
then performed solo, and the male contestants were joined by Daryl Hall
and John Oates.
