Former American Idol star Clay Aiken couldn’t defeat Rep. Renee Ellmers (R-NC) in the 2014 election, but he merrily sent her on her way Tuesday night after she was lost her Republican primary.

Aiken tweeted Tuesday night “It’s official! Goodbye @RepReneeEllmers You won’t be missed. #walkawayrenee.”

He included a photo montage of Ellmers with “Walk Way Renee” playing in the background.
