The X Factor USA Season 2: First Live Shows, First Elimination

Last night, after a very incredible first live shows, was the toughest decisions the judges had to make. Each judge had to eliminate one act from their team. First, the mentor chose the two people from their team that would go straight to live shows. After, the two that weren't picked would have a final showdown and sing. Then, the mentor had to make a decision of who to go through live shows and who went home.
