Kris says Adam deserved to win, he doesn't know what to say.

Seacrest presents him with the American Idol trophy. The previous winners were all presented with their trophies earlier this year at Disneyland.

Now Kris has to gather himself to sing Kara's horrible song again, LOL!!

In the audience, Kris' brother and wife hold on to his mom--she might fall down. They're all shocked.

Fireworks and confetti rain down on the stage.

Carrie Underwood in the audience.

The Top 13 gather on the mini stage behind the judges. Kris' wife jumps up there to hug him. He cries on her shoulder.

And that's all folks.

FINAL TIVO WARNING: The show runs over by 7 minutes. 10:07pm

Thanks, Jonny. I was so engrossed in Pattton that I missed most of the show.

I’m glad Kris won. He was versatile. Tonight when Adam just sang, I did think wow he does have an amazing voice, then he goes and screams. If he would just sing it straight more often I would like him so much better!!!!

Great thread once again jonny. :) You are the best....silent one you are.

Thank you so much for all your work and hilarious graphics for this season’s thread, Jonny. I will miss it.

I am actually angry at tonight’s win. I really like Kris and voted for him several weeks. (We are allowed 3 votes each in our household and I chose him several times)

However, Adam was truly, clearly better than Kris and Kris would be the first one to tell you that. I believe the reason Adam didn’t win was because of his lifestyle and not his talent. I may not agree with his lifestyle, but he seemed like a smart, respectful person, and he is extraordinarily talented.

This is some Americans’ (and undoubtedly some FReepers’) desire to punish a gay agenda by hurting one gay young man in a singing contest. It makes me sad and disappointed. He wasn’t asking to raise your taxes or invade your homes, but just to win a singing contest. He is no worse morally than some of the FReepers who make some pretty nasty sexual comments on some of the threads with pictures of hot ladies on them.

With that said, Kris truly was a dark horse and did indeed deserve to make it to the Final Two. And to all of the true Kris fans, including my own son, congrats. I’m only sad about those who tried so hard to keep him from being the American Idol.

I hope they both have successful careers.
