I… I can’t believe that Kris Allen was crowned the next American Idol instead of Adam Lambert. What a disappointing result for me, I wonder what happen to the American voters. I knew the result through Hitz.fm in the afternoon. If not because it was raining heavily and I was forced to turn off my computer, I am still joyfully, excitedly, guarantee and assure that Adam will be the winner.

When Natalie, the deejay of Hitz.fm announced that Kris Allen was the winner, my mouth was wide open and turned on the volume louder even though my younger brother was taking a nap next room. I was not prepared to receive that news so I continued listening as Natalie said they have a short interview with Paula Abdul and also Adam Lambert.

After 2 songs, Natalie reconfirmed me that “Adam Lambert is the runner’s up for American Idol Season 8”. I looked at my radio and shouted, “WHAT?!? This is sark!” Although, Adam wasn’t showing any sign of disappointment but boy oh boy, I felt disappointed for you. One of the hitz.fm crew who was at the event asked Adam to say a few words to Malaysia, he said “I love you”. LOL.

Why do I think Adam should be the winner instead of Kris? Here are my reasons: Adam has the looks to be an idol – Elvis Presley the second, he has his own identity such as his eyeliner, nail polish and scream. He looks great in whatever he wears especially black suit and leather outfit. Besides being a singer, he can also be a model. He always make the crowd stood on their feet after his performances and yet he still lost, maybe he should try capturing their hearts instead of their feet like Kris. Furthermore, Simon Cowell said that his vote is on Adam to be the next American Idol during the Oprah Show. Paula Abdul, Randy Jackson and Kara all gave him positive comments during the final showdown. Simon as well.

However, no offence to Kris Allen’s fans, He is lucky to have so many people voting for him. Kris is a nice and humble person. He is an underdog in the competition. I didn’t expect him to reach even the top 4 but I should say, his first song during the final showdown was perfect! I just hope when he records his new single – ‘There’s no boundaries’, he won’t break his voice.

Here are some brief information about Kris Allen (tv.popcrunch.com): Full name Kristopher Neil Allen. He was born on June 21, 1985 in Jacksonville, Arkansas. Kris played viola in his high school orchestra, including winning a spot in his state’s all-state orchestra. He learned to play the guitar when he was 13 and also plays piano and ukulele. Kris produced an album “Brand New Shoes” with college friends and band mates in 2007. A religious belief as a Christian and a worship leader at New Life Church in Arkansas and the Chi Alpha campus ministry at the University of Central Arkansas. Besides, Kris has done missionary work in Burma, Morocco, Mozambique, South Africa, Spain and Thailand. He has married his high school girlfriend, Katy O’Connell on September 26, 2008 (Aw, he is married, wow ~).

Brief information about Adam Lambert (top40.about.com): Adam Lambert was born on January 29, 1982. His family moved to California from Indiana when he was one year old, and he grew up in San Diego, California. Adam had extensive involvement in theater, band, and choir throughout his school years. He began acting on the stage as a child. Adam was the understudy for the part of Fiyero in a touring company of the musical Wicked as well as appearing in a production of the musical The Ten Commandments starring Val Kilmer. He performs regularly at the Zodiac Show and the Upright Cabaret.

Adam auditioned for the eighth season of American Idol singing Queen’s classic “Bohemian Rhapsody.” He was criticized for being theatrical by Simon Cowell and Kara DioGuardi, but he advanced to the Hollywood round despite the complaints. There, he performed a stunning version of Cher’s “Believe,” and he has been a favorite to win the competition since that point.

The only reason that Adam lost might be people couldn’t accept that he is gay, show an unhealthy image to the younger generation and not a good role model. Kris on the other hand is like a boy next door. Below are their photos:- (TOP: Kris Allen, winner of American Idol (BELOW: Adam Lambert, my American Idol =D)
