Jen Hirsch first into 'American Idol' top 24

Forty-two contestants get chopped to the top 24 on "American Idol" starting tonight -- there are spoiler lists out there, but hopefully you've managed to avoid them; where's the fun in finding out like that?!

Jen Hirsch starts us out, says "the cuts have become about the little details, this isn't just about being a good singer anymore." True dat. I think she'll make it through, but I don't feel strongly either way though.

Judges have her near tears with their fake negativity as she sits in front of them; then they tell her she's through to the next round -- "one of the best singers this year," says Randy Jackson.
