@LuckyL:

ITAWU. American did not want a gay idol so they rather pick the less talented straight singer. I think that most people voted for Kris because he is “adorable adn cute” and straight and not because he is talented. Cause whether you like Adam or not he is the most talented of the two.

I think that Adam is going to be great and I bet he already have a contract signed. He will be bigger than Kris

Now I have no reason to watch Idol now

DON’T WORRY*

LOL I REMEMBER STERN ALSO SAYING “AMERICA WILL FEEL MORE MASCULINE VOTING FOR A BIG BLACK GUY THEN SOME SKINNY WHITE GUY WHO CAN SING”

NO WORRIES–PEOPLE JUST FELT MORE COMFORTABLE

I was shocked that Kris won, I thought that Adam would win by a landslide, but i have to give credit to Kris he was the favorite and Adam was next and couldn’t do enough to win. Kris verison of heartless by Kayne West was the best. I think that’s what won hin American Idol.
Who well sell the most records Adam ro Kris?

UNBELIEVEABLE!! We all know Adam should have won.. BUT WE CAN YOU EXPECT FROM A COUNTRY THAT VOTED FOR BUSH TWICE!!!

Kris should’ve won and he did! Adam just sounds the same is every preformance.

I just about cried when I heard that Kris won, and not in a good way. I love them both but honestly, Adam deserved it. He definately made an impact on AI.

I’m going to be the first to buy his album!

yes! so happy! he may not have had the best voice, but he sang with alot of heart and passion. oh, and didnt scream every time….and all this bull about America being judgemental, if that were the case Adam wouldnt have made it this far. duh! damn I just made a fact.

Adam - you was robbed!!!

Adam is overrated and Kris is a better singer.

@isabel:

true dat

This isn’t about looks guys. Its about TALENT! Adam had the talent. Kris did not either way it doesn’t matter who won we all know Adam will be more famous than Kris.

Hey, if you didn’t like Kris you should have voted for Adam more!!

Kris did and awesome job and grew so much vocally throughout the competition! Go Kris!!!

yessss woo hoo kris allen!

WTF!? America chose a “clean cut” singer. BS!!!! Lambert should have won….awesome friggin’ voice…period.

After Kelly Clarkson and Carrie Underwood won AI……I stopped watching.

AI…til next year? hahhaha yeh right

It does not matter that Kris won - Adam will still make more $$$ and have a more promising career.

okay guys
seriosuly

kris is like the same voice we hear on the radio 10000000000

he’s justin timberlake

adam was different voiced in music

kris i can barely hear himn

america is retarded

He won because he’s guy-next-door cute - not because he’s the more talented of the 2!

I’m glad Kris won and Adam probably is too. Adam will be fine..trust me. He is going to make it on his own without the AI name hovering over him for life!

EXACTLY

Adam was already pulling covers. His Entertainment cover? F****** about sold out in my local Barnes and Noble–in the major city of Boston. And when I heard all this buzz about this guy named Adam, he was the ONLY reason I tuned in! And I haven’t watched in YEARS!

They may have only kept Adam around to use him for numbers!! He was 90 PERCENT of the reason why people were tuning in in the last few weeks! I’m laughing over here!

omg! Im so happy Kris won! yes!

and if Adam has all this talent and is meant to be a huge star and more famous then any of the others, he wouldve been already. get over it. he didnt win. Kris did.

i’m not fan or hater of any of them but HONESTLY adam deserved to win, kris too, but adam SO deserved it…

this is like when clay lost, american idol made a BIG mistake…Adam was by far the better singer….im shocked, its kind of like miss usa, the winner won but nobody will be talking about them, they will all be talking about the runner up…in this case adam. There is noway adam lost fairly, i think the producers didnt want him to win cuz he is gay…

Please there hasn’t been and ADAM on the show ever and will never be… To me he was exciting to watch. there are so many artists out there that sound and look like Kris. I liked him too, but not enough for him to win!! ADAM WAS ROBBED..

They were so different from each other so it was really anyone’s game! They are both great in their own ways. Adam will do FINE, I think Kris needed the title more :)

@MissyQ:

How is it rigged? EVERYONE, aka the judges included, were all rooting for Adam. Kris Allen winning was a complete shock, a wonderfully pleasant and delectable shock!

Woo Kris Allen FTW!
