Casey Abrams finished his performance Wednesday night on American Idol by kissing Jennifer Lopez on the cheek. Steven Tyler squirmed: “Casey! You did what I have been trying to do for four months!” Casey looked proud of himself and Jennifer said, “Casey is not playing fair…Casey got soft lips!”

Casey sang Maroon 5’s Harder to Breathe! And both him and Jennifer had a hard time breathing after that surprise kiss!

J.Lo said, “I Loved it! The performance! The performance! The performance was great. You brought all your Casey’isms to it. You took a pop song and took it all the way rock. It was really great.”

Randy Jackson wasn’t kissed but gushed over Casey anyway: “What I love about Casey is that it’s always surprise, surprise, surprise. I enjoyed it….I loved that you came here and kissed[ J.Lo.]. Amazing job. Keep taking chances, I love it. I can’t wait to see what you do every time.”

Steven Tyler forgot Idol is a family show and called Casey a “cult hero” and said there are “millions of people in America that are really angry because you piss them off you’re so fucking good. You’ve changed so many fucking people’s minds. You’re that kind of artist. I gotta tell you, I love you man.” Of course the F bombs were muted by Fox, but you could read Steven’s lips clear as day. Funny thing, Steven did not even realize what he had done, until Randy told him. “Darn good!” corrected Randy.  Me: I LOVE YOU STEVEN!

Watch Casey perform and kiss the most beautiful woman in the world:
