American Idol's Naima Adedapo: Being with My Family Again Is 'Beautiful'

After a mostly impressive evening of Elton John covers, 55 million votes were cast this week on American Idol. But inevitably, after Casey Abrams received the only save of the season last week, two singers were sent packing.

Naima Adedapo, who converted "I'm Still Standing" into a reggae tune and got lukewarm reviews, and
Thia Megia were called out by Ryan Seacrest as the contestants with the lowest number of votes.

Adedapo spoke to PEOPLE about reuniting with her family, her best friend on the show, Jacob Lusk, and what she'll miss most – shopping!

Steven Tyler had quite a soft spot for you. How did it feel to have him in your corner?
That was really amazing and touching for me. I just respect how much he is who he is. He doesn't care and that's what I love about him. He's real. It's touching to have someone of that magnitude really believe in you and really route for you.

Have you been reunited with your family yet?
I have. I actually reunited with them after the show last night, which was beautiful. I just hugged my children and laughed with them and kissed them. It felt so good. I missed them a lot. It was really good to see my motivation. They are that for me.
