Mark my words, Kris Allen could win this competition.

His popularity with the teenage crowd is immense.



Im startin to wonder Drew...cuz no way i thought he would make it this far, and he just keeps chugging along....he must have a much bigger fan base than i realized.....and i would think he would pick up more of Danny's fans than Adam would, due to the style of singers they are....

i guess it is possible, but not sure AI wants that, so it might not happen

My wife says Kris Allen's fans vote via text in Biblical proportions.

This is 100% true. Did you notice last night when they each went to their hometown what each of their crowds looked like? Kris' crowd looked like a damn Miley Cyrus concert there were so many 13-16 year old girls. Adam and Danny both had considerably older audiences.

I've heard they hold "Texting for Kris" parties all over Arkansas with thousands of kids in gymnasiums voting until their fingers bleed via text, which means its rapid fire and no busy signals to deal with.

This gives Kris a distinct advantage over Adam, IMO. Idol certainly does not want him to win though, so expect the judges to be all over Adam's nuts come finale time. I personally would love to see Kris win.

The Entertainment magazine that came out yesterday
outs Adam as being gay.

Not sure if that will help or hurt his chances. Given
Fox's demographics, I think it will hurt him.

SheBar sez it's been common knowledge since early going that Adam is gay.

But then again, she's got very high tech gay-dar working, so maybe she just picked up on it herself.

Great reply Drew because you are dead on. Fingers bleed...good one and VERY true

OK, well, Adam wins. I was going to pull for Kris, but he just didn't have the impact during the finale.

He did the new song better than Adam, but I can't give him the first round like Simon did. I can say maybe even, but Adam's Mad World is still one of a kind, better than the original.

Second round goes to Adam. Did Simon Fuller help Adam win with the song choice. If I were picking a song for Kris, I would've chosen Without Love by The Doobie Brothers. He should've called me first.

I think Kris has a very good shot at winning. Adam was simply not dominant enough in his performances and Kris' voting base is too strong. Teenage girls in hordes are voting like absolute fucking made as we speak for Kris and his humble nature may play to his advantage.

This will be close.

That's not the half of it Smitty.
Dial Idol doesn't even show the text messages, and that goes to Kris by a wide margin.
Feeling here is Seacrest will be saying tonight, "your new American Idol, Kris Allen"
