Canadian Idol contestants performed music of the Fab Four as the CTV program pared down to the Final Four hopefuls.

Toronto’s Mookie Morris was the latest competitor to be eliminated as voters
judged them on singing Beatles songs.

After making Idol history last week by being the Torontonian to advance the furthest in the program’s six seasons, the popular 18-year-old received the fewest votes.

Those moving on are: Mitch MacDonald, 22, of Port Hood, N.S.; EarlStevenson, 23, of Lloydminster, Alta.; Theo Tams, 23, of Lethbridge, Alta.; and Drew Wright, 28, of Collingwood, Ont.

Next week, the Final Four will be mentored by legendary songstress Anne Murray who performs in Tuesday’s results episode.

The American Idol winner from 2007 and former plus-size model Jordin Sparks will perform on the program as well.
