'Idol': Haley Reinhart with Tony Bennett, plus Scotty McCreery with Tim McGraw

Haley Reinhart gets a great duet partner, too -- Tony Bennett, for a rendition of Steppin' Out With My Baby. She's swinging, and she's loving it. During the piano and guitar solos, the two wrap their arms around each other and step forward to dance together.
Next, Jennifer Lopez gets her own video segment, which features lots of auditioning contestants sucking up to her. And Casey Abrams kissing her.
Next performance slot goes to the surviving members of TLC and rapper Lil Jon (guess he's the new "L") for a medley that includes No Scrubs and Waterfalls, during which they're joined by the women of the Top 13.
After that, Scotty gets his moment in the spotlight, singing Live Like You Were Dying with Tim McGraw. Scotty steps up his game, vocally, in Tim's presence, and we get a real sense of what his performances could look at.
