Kris Allen Wins American Idol Season 8

Written by: Jordasche Kingston on 20 May 2009 | 18 Comments |

Congratulations to Kris Allen who took first place on season eight of American Idol tonight. I am SO happy! I was a Kris Allen fan right from the start.

What an exciting finale right?

If you missed it bikini girl was back looking better than ever, but was vocally outshined when Kara DioGuardi came out and not only began singing, but also showed off a nice six-pack stomach she herself possesses. Who knew? Way to go Kara!

I thought of all the duets Alison Iraheta and Cyndi Lauper out shined everyone. Their performance of ‘Time After Time’ was outstanding. I especially loved the end.

Congratulation again to Kris Allen. May you have a long, happy and prosperous career!

    I wanted Adam to win :(

    I’m sorry that was rude! I wanted Adam to win, but Kris Allen still deserves a congratulations :)

  • Pam said:

    I’m super happy about Kris winning. He reminds me a lot of Rob Thomas.

    Funny you should say that Pam. I was just telling my husband the same thing this morning. Kris Allen definitely reminds me of Rob Thomas too. For those not familiar with him by name he is lead singer of Matchbox 20.

    I know you LOVED bikini girl Jordasche! Both she and Kara looked H-O-T! Congratulations to Kris Allen. I would have been happy with either him or Adam Lambert winning. I thought it was a good fight.

  • Xandria Phillips said:

    Awesome! Good for Kris Allen. Adam Lambert would have had a record deal no matter what the outcome was. I think they said Kiss already wants to work with him! (Adam Lambert)

  • Maricela said:

    Wow. I am so so happy for Kris Allen. To be honest I didn’t think he had a shot in hell of winning, but Arkansas boy pulled it off. I agree with Xandria (cool name btw) that Adam Lambert would be getting a record deal of some sort no matter what.

  • Xandria Phillips said:

    Thank you Maricela :) I like your name too :)

    Thank you.

    Brit…I totally called that. You had 3 way race and when gockey was out, I knew his supporters would mostly go for Kris (isn’t that the girl spelling?) b/c they had similar styles.

    I think Kris needed to win more than Adam. Now they both have a shot of fame and fortune. Adam would’ve been signed to a record deal regardless. Kris, however, probably would’ve been signed if he came in second, but winning Idol brings more attention to his name.

  • CosmopolitanChic said:

    I live in Little Rock and it is believed that Arkansas single handedly got Kris the win. There were viewing parties every single week when he made it top 3. Then people would stay afterwards for hours and hours texting in their votes.

  • Kayla Mirkhani said:

    I am thrilled that Kris Allen won. He was definitely the under dog and I am proud of him! Yeah!

  • The Constant Complainer said:

    I kept saying Adam would win much to my dismay, so I’m glad Kris pulled it out. He seems more mainstream I think.

  • Bearman said:

    Jordasche…this post and your kissing my butt about my crappy drawing skills gave me the inspiration to do another celebrity toon. This one about AI Finale.

    You gotta give credit where credit is due Bear and I can’t draw a straight line. Seriously.

  • Michelle Miller said:

    I don’t even need to weigh in here…Jordasche knows ;) But still…Adam was robbed! I do agree that Kris needed it more than Adam did.
