Fox's American Idol voted out the fifth of its twelve finalists during last night's results show, with Nadia Turner, a 28-year-old from Miami, FL, being eliminated from the reality talent competition as a result of receiving the fewest audience votes.

Nadia had entertained the audience by singing the 1977 hit "When I Dream" during Tuesday's American Idol 4 performance show, after which viewers cast over 34 million votes -- the most votes ever cast for a non-finale episode of the hit series.

Joining Nadia in the week's bottom three vote-getters were Bo Bice, a 29-year-old from Helena, AL, and Scott Savol, a 28-year-old Shaker Heights, OH resident who made headlines two weeks ago due to the discovery of a previous domestic assault incident in his background.

With his departure, Nadia becomes the fourth female Idol 4 finalist to be eliminated. Nadia joins Nikko Smith (Week 4), Jessica Sierra (Week 3), Mikalah Gordon (Week 2), and Lindsey Cardinale (Week 1) as American Idol 4's eliminated finalists.

Next week will see another of Idol's finalists eliminated, with the seven remaining contestants once again taking the stage during Tuesday's 8-9PM ET/PT performance show and later learning their fate during Wednesday's 9:00-9:30PM ET/PT live results show.
