"American Idol" judge Katy Perry tapped into her evangelical upbringing to rebuke Satan on national TV after Buffalo, New York-based singer Ethan Fingold, a "mystic death creature vocalist known as VoKillz," targeted her with his dark enchantment during his audition.

ABC's new season of "American Idol" premiered last Sunday night and before he faced the judges Fingold howled at the camera and declared: "It's time to summon the dark energy!"

Perry asked, "Did you put a spell on this?"
