He Did IT!
Nobody was surprised more than Kris Allen when Ryan Seacrest announced the results after nearly 100,000,000 votes had been counted. Even Simon and Paula realized just before the show that Kris could get the needed votes. Adam was a very good sport about the whole thing. He had nothing but praise for Kris and his talent. Adam does not want to fit into this world like Kris does. I think what is appealing about Kris is that he is one of us. He has great musical talent and charm, but if you put him in a crowd, he doesn't stand out. Adam, on the other hand, will always be noticed. He is very talented, but like many a genius, he doesn't fit in with most of us. He will always attract attention because he is different.
I loved the performances by Carlos Santana and Queen. Kiss always has been a bit too far out there for me. They fit more into the category of Adam Lambert with their showmanship.
There were some other interesting moments in the show. I'm wondering what was bleeped out during Fergie's performance. On second thought, I don't want to go there. Steve Martin can even make us laugh when he's trying to be serious. He plays the banjo! I'm not sure what Kara was trying to do with bikini girl, but she did it well. I loved Ryan's line about what's new with bikini girl. Who knows, maybe bikini girl got what she really wanted all along. In the end, there are lots of winners from this season, but with the voters, there is only one American Idol.
