American Idol contestant Shawn Robinson teamed up with Elle King (Exs & Ohs) in a Top 20 all-star duet on the singing competition show Sunday and their Proud Mary wasnt exactly rollin.

Whether it was due to a missed cue, a forgotten lyric or something else, the performance turned awkward in a hurry.
