Congratulations to American Idol winner Kris Allen! I didn’t pick him to win, but it was a great finale last night and when all the votes were counted, Kris came out on top and will reign as the new AI champion.

Probably the reason Kris won, besides his enormous talent, was because of the whole voting dynamic thing. When one idol leaves the show many times the votes they were getting aren’t split up evenly between the rest of the contestants. That’s why Allison Iraheta went from being in the bottom 3 for three weeks in a row to being in the top 2 once Lil Rounds left. The female vote was going to Lil amongst her and Allison and when Lil left the show, most of her votes went to Allison.

To take that further and explain why Kris won over Adam Lambert, when Danny Gokey left the show, since he was much more stylistically closer to Kris than Adam, a greater percentage of Danny’s votes ended up going to Kris and he ended up winning.

No big deal for Adam though because he is sure to get a recording contract with his utterly amazing voice. I don’t think I’ve ever hear a male singer able to reach the high notes Adam could. He is probably the perfect singer to replace Freddie Mercury in Queen because I don’t think anyone else can hit the high notes in Bohemian Rhapsody like Freddie could. Anyway, you know someone will pick up Adam and do a record deal with him. He has a long career ahead of himself.

Congratulations to all of the American Idols, this was definitely the most talented group of singers ever. And especially congratulations to Kris Allen. Way to go dude, you deserve it!

A couple of weeks ago us American Idol fans were shocked when Adam Lambert ended up in the bottom 3 and was actually in the bottom 2 contestants. Many fans have picked Adam, with his incredible vocal range, to be the sure thing winner of the whole show this season.

If anyone had any doubt about Adam having the pipes or the talent (I don’t know how anyone could at this point?) they surely would have been able to put them to rest after hsi incredible rendition of Led Zepplin’s Whole Lotta Love. I think that Adam’s version rivals that of Robert Plant’s.

Honestly though, I don’t think American Idol has seen anyone with the talent of Adam Lambert ever. He is probably the earliest stand out and the most sure to win the competition in AI history. I think the problem 2 weeks ago was that the voting dynamic changes dramatically from week to week because of where the person who gets voted off votes go. Allison Iraheta proved that by being in the bottom 3 consistently until Lil Rounds left the show. Apparently many of Lil’s votes went to the only girl left and move Allison from the bottom 3 to the top 2. Unfortunately, that didn’t las too long as she was voted off last week.

It was looking as though it might have been an Allison and Adam final, but that won’t be. Allison had immense talent and maturity for her young 16 years and she’s sure to get some sort of recording deal.

We’ll all watch tonight and see what happens to the last 3 guys left. Adam Lambert, Danny Gokey and Kris Allen will put it all on the line on the American Idol stage and I’m sticking with Adam to take it all two weeks from now. Enjoy the show.
