On Thursday, ABC’s “Boy Band” eliminated another fan favorite before the season finale. Illinois’ native Devin Hayes gracefully exited the show with gratitude for the opportunity to appear on the series. He even shared a series of upbeat Instagram clips following his last episode to prove there were no hard feelings for his elimination.

Check out a couple of his posts below:

“On Friday, Devin shared this message via Instagram about his tenure on “Boy Band”: “This journey has been amazing. I am so incredibly thankful and humbled to be able to be on such an amazing show. It had such an impact on me and it changed my life. Boy Band has shaped me not only into a better artist, but a better person as well. The confidence I started the show with was close to NONE. I’m happy to say I’m leaving the show with the GREATEST confidence in myself and with a positive and bright spirit. I’m never going to stop being myself. I’m never going to stop smiling. 😊 I won’t ever let someone try and tell me that I need to change who I am as a person. I aim to continue to inspire people and spread positivity. The support I’ve had through this competition is UNREAL. You guys are my everything. I love you Hayzers. Forever and always💪🏼❤️ On to the next chapter”

I was looking forward to Devin, Jaden, Marcus, Sergio and Drew scoring spots in the band. So, Thursday’s show was somewhat upsetting with Devin and Sergio facing off for elimination. I still hope the other guys make it in the band.

All the best to Devin Hayes!
