Kris Allen Proves Why He's Our American Idol!


There's been a lot of controversy today about the American Idol results last week. Apparently some AT&T representatives attended a party in Arkansas and handed out cell phones and gave lessons on how to text. It's being said that the representatives even taught party-goers how to cheat and send multiple text vote at once. Since Arkansas is Kris Allen's home town, many people believe that this cheating could have been the reason why Allen won.

However, the American Idol spokespeople have stated that Kris won fair and square, and he apparently won by a mile.

If the sales number of the final 2 contestant's singles are any indicator, Kris Allen is America's favorite choice.

Kris Allen has sold a total of 134,458 copies of his version of "No Boundaries" this week, while runner-up Adam Lambert has only sold a mere 35,948 copies. Ouch! Burn Lambert, Burn!

Idol Controversy? Already? Yes!

Season 8 of American Idol may have just began, but there's already some controvery going on with the contestants!

First off we have Casey Carlson in bikini pictures, looking rather seductive. Not as much of a controversy as Antonella Barber's photos or Frenchie Davis's pornography, but still enough to make her lose her "sweet girl" image. At least she did it for a good reason...to make calendars to be sold to raise money for breast cancer research.


Next up is Emily Wynne-Hughes who has a much more serious controversy. Hughes is being forced to wear an alcohol monitoring bracelet due to her dui arrest. Sources are saying that this incindent may have caused the judges to eliminate her in the Hollywood rounds of auditions. Good news for me, I really didn't like her.
