Miranda Lambert Lights Up ‘American Idol’ Stage With Fiery ‘Kerosene’ Performance

Miranda Lambert lit up the 'American Idol' stage on Sunday (May 4) with a fiery performance of her 2005 hit 'Kerosene' as the top 10 were cut to 8.

They clearly got along like old friends, with country gentleman Foster even taking off his cowboy hat in deference to Lambert, who counseled him to work the stage a bit as they did an impromptu duet on Bonnie Raitt’s “Something to Talk About.” Lambert wasn’t done singing, though, as she had her own spotlight moment later in the show when she took the stage to perform her breakthrough 2005 hit single, “Kerosene,” which peaked at No. Fellow country stars and Idol judges Carrie Underwood and Luke Bryan clapped and bopped their heads to the song’s driving beat and gospel-flecked keyboards.
