I actually expect Kris to win. Idol has been pushing for a Danny/Adam finale from the start so it is no surprise who they want to win themselves. However, for every 5 Adam fans, there is another person who does not want him to win and will vote against him whether or not they actually like Kris. In their eyes, it is not that Kris is good, it is simply that he is better than Adam (usually bitter fans or uptight Christians upset that Adam is gay and wears makeup. Although there is some that just do not like GlamRock and can care less about his actual vocals.)

When you add up all of Kris's fans and all the people that just do not want Adam to win at any cost, I think his numbers will completely outdo anything the Glamberts can pull off. Needless to say, I expect the producers to be unhappy, the Glamberts to feel cheated and the boards to explode in a riot of people complaining and others bragging even if they did not even care about Kris at all. I actually feel bad at times for the contestants on the show.

I could be wrong though.

Has ANYONE here read this article: NY Times Link

If you did, you'd know that the goal was never to crown Adam, but to get him into the finals for ratings. That's why Simon was practically begging for votes: if Adam got eliminated, they'd literally lose millions in ad revenue whether thru repaying advertisers for missed audience targets or lower ad rates for next year. They would've loved an Adam/Gokey finale for the Light vs. Dark narrative, but would settle for a finale with Adam/Anyone.

Btw, the top 2 are already guaranteed contracts while the other 8 in the top 10 signed "right of first refusal" clauses letting 19E have first dibs over anyone they want, so Allison is already theirs.

I follow Perez Hilton on Twitter and his latest tweet says

"Just left Adam Lambert's party at the Sofitel with Katy. He said he's definitely gonna make "us" proud! GOOD!"

So... I guess Adam is already rocking it like a celeb with celebs, there is another hint that Katy supported Adam on her cape on her own free will, and finally- a reason we should support Kris...there's something about modesty I admire. Adam seems to already think he's got it in the bag...we should work to prove him wrong...

Adam and Kris will both have gold or platinum albums.

But Gokey's eventual album will go Myrrh.

The entire show was a suck fest. Doesn't anybody on that stage know how to sing? Bookended by a missing Paula at the opening (stage manager - fired. director - fired) to Kara's "Oh my God. Oh my God. Danny!" at the elimation, that was one hour of pure unadulterated crap.

You did forget to mention Adam's version of the Star Spangled Banner in his Hometown video. Just wasn't the same this time without the sheep.

So, off topic a bit but I realized last night that Kris talks out of the side of his mouth as well, kind of like a stroke victim...

Did anyone think that the presentation was "shocking" in anyway? After keeping Kris-who?, was there any doubt that Gokey was gone? I burst out laughing!

crazytom, I thought the same thing.....I actually said it out loud to my one year old honorary worster, as he can't read and enjoy Chan and Dave, and he laughed.....it could have just been gas but I think he knew

as for the show last night, overall.....I didn't watch it.....I worked so of course I DVRed it but I couldn't bring myself to watch it.....I watched the first minute or two then said eff it, skipped to Glambert's homecoming to see if they actually DID mention the Green Bra Girl and how Adam handled Ryan's attempt at good-natured ribbing.....then I skipped to end to see Curious George getting excited and almost jumping up and down like a real monkey and to bid a very un-fond adieu to Hokey.....I actually hope I work on results night next week so all I have to see is the last couple minutes and the confetti and then awful Idol song being debuted which reminds me, I haven't yet bought my ear plugs

I think it's very appropriate that DWD was eliminated the third just like his beloved Elliott Yamin.
