Top 5 American Idol finalist Caleb Kennedy will no longer compete on the show after a controversial old video of the 16-year-old singer surfaced on social media.
According to the LA Times, Sunday’s episode of the singing competition will “feature the Top 4 with one contestant elimination.”
The news comes after a video of Kennedy sitting next to someone dressed like a member of the Ku Klux Klan attracted more than 100,000 views on Twitter.
Although ABC and American Idol have not issued a public statement, the singer’s appearances have been removed from the show’s official YouTube channel, Instagram and Twitter.
