It is strange that Kris won. First, do not think that Danny's fans voted for Kris. Remember, it was suppose to be a Adam / Danny final. Do you really think that Danny's fans would vote for someone who knocked the more vocally talented Danny out of the final? Google trend May in Danny's home state and you will see that Adam is more popular then Kris. Second, I am not bitter, I am outraged that after what went on in Arkansas, and please do not deny the mass voting there, that would only need 16,000 people to create 38 million votes, that Kris' fans continue to justify his win based on his talent or popularity. That damn lie will not fly. You get over your delusions and accept the fact that you should be grateful that the Idol machine let your power texting votes stand and an ordinary talent was given a shot that he did not deserve, but don't dare compare him to the one and only Adam Lambert.You are right that fans may have a backlash on someones success, you have proven it with Kris. All of you that continue to argue against the obvious give me the creeps!
What you are calling "thousands" of Kris fans in LA are mostly Adam's fans that are supportive of Kris because Kris is Adam's friend.They split votes for him on Idol as well. No one is saying that Kris only has fans in Arkansas, merely that Adam has more fans around the country then Kris does. No one talks about it much but the gambling before the final favored an Adam win by far. There method of gathering information is much the same as marketing. Adam shows some of his highest numbers in the North East, If you do not believe me follow the fan action there. The writer of this article must fail to realize that we have recordings of Adam's performance in Memphis and I fail to hear anything that would deserve criticism. Kris on the other hand has never sang a clean set. They are enhancing his vocals but that does not correct the notes he sings off key,or his poor timing and phrasing. Not to mention his poor interaction with the audience. As far as being hateful, there is nothing more hateful then for Arkansas to have stolen the win from the man who deserved it because of his superior talent and performances. It is hateful for anyone to continue to glorify Kris when he probably stole Danny's place in the final and knocked Allison into third place and should have finished after Matt. I will not "get over" Adam's loss as long as there are writers like this that need to be corrected.
By the way, when it comes to flashy outfits, why didn't Elvis comes to mind? As a matter of fact the tall, black haired, blue eyed, swiveled hip King of Rock and Roll looks a lot more Adam. Adam has the Elvis pelvis moves as well.
As a marketing executive I have seen statistical demographics on the Idols and there is no doubt that Adam Lambert should have won American Idol.His popularity was over 50% so any Danny vote would not have mattered. Every bit of data reinforces the fact that Arkansas threw the vote for Kris. Now at every venue Adam is proving the data is correct. He is the most popular and sells the most merchandise by far. It is not Adam's fans who are bitter, we are seeing Adam on his way to enormous success as a singer and as a movie actor as well. It is Kris's fans who will not admit that they elevated Kris beyond is ordinary talent, even having him thinking he is the next Elvis that are the real bitter fans. They are bitter because no matter how they promote Kris he will never compare to Adam. On Adam's worst day he is far better then Kris on his best day.
Maybe you are a closeted gay man that does not want people to suspect your sexuality so you disparage an openly gay man unjustifiably. Memphis was the only stop where bare chested men had Adam autograph their bodies. The Bible Belt is full of surprises.
Adams "shrieking becomes self-indulgent and irritating" does it? You obviously do not have much of an ear or knowledge of music or you would understand just how difficult Adam's vocal gymnastics are. Every audience on the tour has gone wild for Adam, even Kris's home town newspaper gave him a superior review. In case you are not familiar with Idol voting, Arkansas voted Kris in with 38 million votes, that means that people voted thousands of times each while Adam has way more fans everywhere but Arkansas. If you want to know who is self indulgent listen to Kris on the local news comparing himself to Elvis. Elvis the King of Rock and Roll compared to Kris a five foot three mouse of a man with no stage presence, now that is self indulgent!
