"The Final 13 contestants in this year&amp;#039;s American Idol have been revealed. After last night&amp;#039;s &amp;#039;Wild Card&amp;#039; round, the judges chose to save 16-year-old high school student Jasmine Murray, single mother Megan Corkrey and 23-year-old soul singer Matt Giraud. Tatiana Del Toro got on her knees and begged the judges for a final spot after her performance of Whitney Houston&amp;#039;s &amp;#039;Saving All My Love For You&amp;#039;, but was snubbed by the panel. The trio join Lil Rounds, Scott MacIntyre, Jorge Nunez , Adam Lambert, Allison Iraheta, Alexis Grace, Danny Gokey, Kris Allen and Michael Sarver, who were picked for the live finals via public vote. However, in a final twist on last night&amp;#039;s live show, Simon Cowell also announced an unprecedented 13th spot in the final. &amp;quot;We decided - recently - we&amp;#039;re going to make this a top 13,&amp;quot; he said. The judge&amp;#039;s then revealed 22-year-old Anoop Desai as their fourth &amp;#039;Wild Card&amp;#039; pick. The Top 13 will start competing on Tuesday, with one singer voted off each Wednesday. Last night&amp;#039;s &amp;#039;Wild Card&amp;#039; show will air on ITV2 at 10pm tonight. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
