Fans of Kris Allen, Allison Iraheta and Adam Lambert?  If so, you might want to check out their interview on the Walmart Soundcheck site starting November 1, 2009.

I’m not completely sure why none of them is performing but I am interested in seeing the full interview.  If you like this sort of thing, check out Carrie Underwood’s Walmart Soundcheck performances.  She’s great, of course!
In the meantime, check out this preview of Kris, Allison and Adam’s interview!

American Idol season 8 winner, Kris Allen , has revealed the cover art for his upcoming self-titled album and I’d love to know what you think of it.  Honestly, I know a lot of people think Kris is hot so I don’t understand why this almost looks cartoonish. Why all the photoshop?
Anyway, I’m looking forward to hearing what the finished product sounds like.  The album is expected to be released on November 17, 2009.

Singer and songwriter, Mat Kearney has recently said that he’s happy to be working with American Idol winner, Kris Allen, saying that he’s “the real deal.”
Kearney told MTV News that they joined together in August actually made some great music. He reveals, "We wrote a song and it’s awesome." On how the two started working together, "I think [Kris] was just a fan. What he told me was that he was just picking bands that he liked [to collaborate with].”
When the two finally got to recording the song, Mat says it was like magic. "He sang it in, …read more

When I first heard about this song, I have to admit that I got it confused with the Tim McGraw hit “Live Like You Were Dying” but after hearing Kris Allen’s new single “Live Like We’re Dying” it’s clear that these songs are nothing alike. 
First of all, can I just say that I’m so glad that Kris is putting “No Boundaries” behind him?  Yeah… and it’s not that I think the song isn’t good (although I really am not a fan of it) but it was clear that he was uncomfortable with it which really is a bad way …read more

So let’s just get this out of the way – I think “No Boundaries” could be the worst song an American Idol winner has had to record as their first single.  It was co-written by Kara DioGuardi and, while I like a lot of the songs she has written, I’m just not feeling this one.  It’s cheesy and pageanty in my opinion but I know that some people really like the song so I’m so sorry if I’ve offended you!
Anyway, a recording of Kara singing the song has popped up on YouTube and I think it speaks volumes about how …read more

American Idol winners, David Cook and Kris Allen, along with last season’s runner-up, Adam Lambert, were on Good Morning America yesterday morning for the Summer Concert Series.  They sang together ( a cover of Fleetwood Mac’s “Little Lies”) and they sang individually.

Here’s their group performance of “Little Lies” but make sure you check out the clips of Kris, Adam, David and the their shared interview after the jump!

Last night on So You Think You Can Dance, singles from two American Idol winners, Jordin Sparks and Kris Allen, were used during dance routines.  It was a great episode last night, did anyone see it? 
Anyway, Kris’ interpretation of Kanye West’s “Heartless” was used during Evan and Janette’s routine.  I wasn’t a huge fan of the dance (I really don’t like the Rumba anyway) but Kris sounded great!

Brandon and Jeanine delivered an energetic pop jazz routine to “Battlefield” and I really liked it.  At first it seemed like Jeanine was having a hard time …read more

Here are some pics from the San Diego show.  Of course, the set and song lists are the same but I’m sure each night brings a new flavor to it.  I’m loving the pics of Adam Lambert in the trucker hat.  I wonder if they get tired of the clothes (or each other).  Who does all the laundry if they are on a tour bus?  What is Scott MacIntyre wearing around his neck?  Anyway, enough digressing.  Enjoy the pictures!

There are a lot of pictures from the Los Angeles, San Diego and Salt Lake City American Idols Live! concerts so I’m starting with the ones from LA.  Did you get to go to the show?  It looks like a lot of fun.  I’d love to hear about it!

Access Hollywood is reporting that Kris Allen’s grandmother has passed away and, while he mourns the loss, he has opted to bow out of a scheduled appearance on The Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien.
If you follow the reigning American Idol on Twitter, you probably say this message last night: “I know I was supposed to do conan on wed, but there was a death in my family.”
In case you are worried that he might not be at some of the upcoming American Idols Live tour dates, don’t fret.  He hasn’t canceled any appearances yet.
If you were really looking forward to …read more
