Let's celebrate Kris and not bash Adam -- other than to mock the ridiculous KISS performance outfit and the *RHINESTONE* eyeliner!

And can someone please make that YouTube video link active? I forget how, and I have to get to bed!

I can happily and honestly say that I’ve never in my life watched a minute of this show.

Well, he definitely is into boys because there are pix of him with his tongue in some other guy’s mouth. I’m pretty sure that isn’t heterosexual behavior. He also likes to dress like a woman.

So there’s that.

BUT he seems to be a very nice guy, and he was very gracious to Kris when he lost. Kris was flabbergasted.

I think Chris Daughtry was season 5, so Daughtry was actually two years previous to Cook, who won season 7.

Um. You don’t think Adam is gay? You haven’t seen the photos or videos?

Newsweek speculated that there was a Christian voting bloc that would affect the outcome of the American Idol finale

I guess Newsweek heard Obama say that this wasn't a Christian nation.

‘Newsweek speculated that there was a Christian voting bloc ‘that would affect the outcome of the American Idol finale”

Has Newsweek notified the Dept of Homeland Security about this?

Yeah, I’ve seen some of the pictures.

Who knows? The guy seems so pre-packaged it could all be part of his attempt at “mystique”!

Adam is talented, but ultimately headed for work as an opening act for the gamut of the likes of Patti LaBelle and Axel Rose and all the other “vocal divas”.

Kris was a breath of fresh air. Good luck to him.

Your grandfather didn’t like it because he understood that real men don’t wear eyeliner.

Be glad you haven't seen the pictures that are floating all over the 'net.... you will lose your lunch (unless you actually like two guys making out...).

And I don’t buy the “tweenage” votes being the deciding factor - I know plenty of that age group who absolutely LOVE Adam, and from posts on AI-related message boards - they loved him all over the country as well.

And on the flip side of that - my wife and many of our friends - all WAY past tweenage years - voted like mad for Kris Alen.

And according to the official numbers from AT&T - over 38 million votes were cast just from Arkansas (and they said they were extremely heavy for Kris). So the loyalty of his homes state probably made more difference than the “tweenage” vote.

It’s that Kiss performance that made me glad he didn’t win.

One thing that was very telling about who was going to win, that no one seemed to pick up on, was when there were three contestants left, Adam, Kris, and Danny, and they all went back to their hometowns to sing and greet the people.

The people who turned out for Kris were unbelievably huge in number! Heads as far as the eye could see! It was easily twice the number Danny got and hardly anyone came out to see Adam! He was in a football field at his old school and there were just a small number of girls there.

I was there in Conway (Kris’ hometown) when he came back that week! Was an absolute madhouse!!! Probably the most people that town has ever seen in one place!

Mystique? I don’t kiss another guy to build a mysitque.

Would you?
