Because of this, when they both faced Lionel, Katy, and Luke in their performance - she bowed out the competition emotionally.
"She's so talented and so incredible and we bonded so much, but I realized I wasn't able to give 100 percent, so I have decided to not perform, but Fire is going to perform and I'm really grateful that I got to be here."
The judges were stunned by her decision, but when Perry asked for a clarification of Kaya's decision, she said that her "not performing" meant that she would no longer be in the competition, she said as she emotionally ran off the stage.
