		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;JohnM:I donÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t think they would want to release it while the tourÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s going on and she thus isnÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t available for PR....
....Personally, IÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢d rather they take their time and do it right, even if it means waiting longer.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I agree.   I would hate to see it less that PERFECT.</description>

		<description>Not surprised Jive signed her. Her sing-out was the best &quot;moment&quot; of season 8. She also had a great attitude--cheerful, positive, even when voted off. I&#039;d love to see Jive pair her with Archie. Both are prodigies. Both have powerful, distinctive voices.</description>

		<description>This press release definetly gives the feeling that they were planning on signing her for a long time. 
After &quot;I can&#039;t make you love me&quot; and Kara saying &quot;Let&#039;s just make a record&quot;, I was pretty sure she had a good shot at a deal, the following weeks just confirmed it. 

Like everyone else here, I hope they stick with pop/rock stuff and don&#039;t go too much in the teen/pop or rnb/pop, one or two track to bring some diversity are fine with me but nothing more than that.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Spense, I shortened the FTW for your little one. :-)&lt;/blockquote&gt;

It&#039;s okay pj - I don&#039;t let her read here.  And, she really doesn&#039;t know all of her letters yet anyway :)

She will be so excited about her &quot;tm&quot; though.  And, she&#039;d be extremely happy to know about Allison&#039;s record deal, provided she actually knew what a record deal was.  

Obviously, I&#039;ll have to buy this cd for sure.  Allison was the first teen on this show that I ever voted for as well.  Mostly because she was the first one who didn&#039;t appear to be a pageant-bot to me.</description>

JohnM, you are correct.  Lava Girl is courtesy of Little Spens.  

Lava Girl (tm Little Spens) FTW.

		<description>did you all see the TV Guide article asking about Gokey, and wondering if he was going to get a deal? Sorry, NOT going to happen, at least not with 19.  He should look into a niche Christian label.

since they are in signing mode (and I&#039;m seeing more articles pop up that mention all three signings now together), if they have any more, I expect them this week.
I swear, if Megan gets signed, I&#039;ll hurl.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;strong&gt;ppwars&lt;/strong&gt;: Unlike KrisÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢ and AdamÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s releases, AlliÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s did NOT specify a Fall drop date.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Interestingly, although the press release at Jive&#039;s website didn&#039;t specify a release timeframe as you noted, &lt;a href=&quot;http://sev.prnewswire.com/entertainment/20090610/NY3033010062009-1.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;the copy on PR Newswire&lt;/a&gt; (a big clearinghouse for press releases) had the title: &quot;American Idol Finalist Allison Iraheta Signs to 19 Recordings; Debut Album to be Released Fall 2009 on 19 Recordings/Jive Records&quot;.  Don&#039;t know where they got that title from.

&lt;blockquote&gt;Might we expect an album before fall or early fall??!!&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I would definitely not expect it before fall, because I don&#039;t think they would want to release it while the tour&#039;s going on and she thus isn&#039;t available for PR.  Even Kristy Lee Cook&#039;s throwaway album last year was held until a couple of days after the tour.  But yes, early fall is certainly a possibility.

Personally, I&#039;d rather they take their time and do it right, even if it means waiting longer.</description>

		<description>I agree Liberty.Allison will be a role model.She&#039;s going to give those disney 
girls a lesson in singing.She will be the next big female rocker.

I wish we knew Allisons A&amp;R.I dont think it would be Thersea.We will have to see.I doubt we would hear Allison&#039;s manager/A&amp;R and not Kris or Adam&#039;s.</description>

		<description>This is fantastic news! Allison will be a great role model to lots of young girls especially in the latino community.  She has a long career ahead of her. I hope to one day listen to a Spanish Rock album.

		<description>Unlike Kris&#039; and Adam&#039;s releases,  Alli&#039;s did NOT specify a Fall drop date.  Might we expect an album before fall or early fall??!!  Some of the early insider reports that have been dead on accurate so far indicated that Jive was well prepared to work with Alli long before season&#039;s end.  Even A&amp;R had been selected along with some notable producers and writers.  Very exciting times for Alli and for all who appreciate the privilege of witnessing a prodigy blossom.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m so happy for Allison but not surprised at all.  She was my 2nd favorite and like many others have never voted for a teen until Allison.  I really think she&#039;ll do well.  

I liked Slezak&#039;s choices including my fave, Anoop.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;strong&gt;AnnaMarieFields&lt;/strong&gt;: I love her voice but that song that she wrote didnt fit right with him.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Did you mean it didn&#039;t fit right with &lt;em&gt;her&lt;/em&gt;?  I totally disagree.  I think it&#039;s a good pop-rock song and fits her very well.

&lt;blockquote&gt;SheÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s not a bluesy singer.I never sound the blues they are talking about in her singing.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Oh man, she&#039;s about as bluesy as it gets!  Listen to her live performance of Papa Was A Rollin&#039; Stone and tell me that wasn&#039;t super-bluesy.  When I imagine my ideal career for her, I always think about blues, blues-rock, and soul.  Not that she needs to be that narrow, because she demonstrated on the show that she can sing pretty much anything!</description>

		<description>YES! I&#039;ve been dying to hear this news! Every time I read a &quot;is rumored to have been signed&quot; post, I was like &quot;please please please somebody confirm this!&quot; XD

So happy for Allison...and for ME! Since this means that I have an Allison album to look forward to! I can&#039;t wait! She was my favorite of the season! Rocker signed! :D</description>

		<description>I hope Allison is co-writing her music like Kris is.I cant see Allison writing music.I love her voice but that song that she wrote didnt fit right with him.She&#039;s more of a rocker than a songwriter.

It also doesnt look like they will let Allison stay rocker.I hope she tells them that she&#039;s rocker.She&#039;s not a bluesy singer.I never sound the blues they are talking about in her singing.She&#039;s rock at girls her age can get.</description>

		<description>I love Allison! I knew she&#039;d get a deal even if she lost the contest. In the end, I think she&#039;s better off, too, because many Idol losers ended up becoming more successful than the winners themselves. I came across this gallery of all the past &quot;losers.&quot; &lt;a href=&quot;http://tinyurl.com/idolloserphotos&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://tinyurl.com/idolloserphotos&lt;/a&gt; Honestly, I remember these guys more than the winners anyway!</description>

Ãƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…â€œAllison was an absolute stand-out this season,Ãƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬  stated RCA/JIVE Label GroupÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s Chairman and CEO Barry Weiss.

So freaking awesome, glowing, and true..I have so much faith that they want to make her the breakout star o f AI..look at her initials A.I= American idol...coincidence? haha</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t think there is any way she gets the Kristy Lee Cooke treatment, wasn&#039;t Kristy proud she recorded the whole album in three days? Allison would never let that fly, and the record execs know they have a real talent with her. I did feel bad for Kristy though, it was really surprising how crappy a major record label would treat one of their artists, I think they only wanted to make a quick buck then dump her.</description>

		<description>That&#039;s great news! Allison was my second favorite, so I&#039;m glad to see her signed.  I wish Allison lots of luck, and I can easily see her in the music biz-it wouldn&#039;t surprise me at all if she was the break out star of the season.   Save the Rocker! :)</description>

		<description>They would have been crazy not to sign Allison, imo. The judges never gave her the recognition she deserved. I thought she was kind of a throwback to the cool rocker-chicks from the &#039;80s that I admired as a kid (Joan Jett, Pat Benetar, Chrissy Hynde, Cyndi Lauper). Looking forward to hearing her again. :)</description>
