We have a potential spoiler alert for Thursday’s American Idol wild card round.

The wild card round, which brings back contestants who have been voted off, takes place Thursday, March 5. According to an Idol spokesperson each judge can pick two contestants from the top 36 — from which everyone is eligible — and those eight singers will perform a song on the one-hour March 5 show, with three advancing into the top 12.

If you don’t want to know who may be competing in American Idol‘s wild card round, then STOP right here and don’t read any further.

A recent photo shows a few of the top 36 who were previously voted off back in Los Angeles for some reason, leaving us to speculate that they will be part of the wild card round.

Check out the photo below of a group of Idol contestants at The Grove after leaving a movie.

Could this mean the Giraud, Braddy and Desai will be competing in Thursday’s wild card round?
