Screaming fans clutched signs for their favorites. As the show progressed, phone cameras flickered throughout the venue and audience members cheered when they saw their images projected onto the side overhead screens.

Didi Benami began the show with "Lay It on Me" (The Rescues), and picked up her guitar for "Terrified" (Katharine McPhee). She wore a long, white, sparkly sweater over leggings, high-heeled tan boots and loopy earrings.
