		<description>Claude Kelly for Kris? Wow.... he&#039;s wrote songs for Akon, Christina Aguilera, Leona Lewis, Lady GaGa, and Whitney Houston. I think he wrote Britney&#039;s &quot;Circus&quot;.</description>

		<description>EW.com has an interview with Kris up on their site as well right now. Here&#039;s what he had to say about not being pushed into recordign stuff he isn&#039;t comfortable with:


&quot;I am really laid back and kind of go-with-the-flow, but I will never do anything that I donÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t believe in. So if thereÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s a song that theyÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢re trying to shoot at me and IÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢m like, ehhhh, then it probably wonÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t happen. I think it would just be uncomfortable. You canÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t do something that you donÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t feel good about.&quot;

It doesn&#039;t sound like he&#039;s going to let 19/Jive run roughshod over him when it comes to his music.</description>

 Ãƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…â€œI think IÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢m still in shock that this is happening -- getting to record my first album and this whole awesome experience is a dream come true!Ãƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬  Allison said in a statement released to EW by 19 Recordings.

		<description>Both Adam AND Kris were on the front page of Yahoo today, although in different sections. Adam is the media darling (and lord knows Yahoo despises Kris Allen), but they couldn&#039;t ignore the fact of his signing and that he was leading the entertainment news links yesterday.  Adam tends to suck up all the oxygen, as they say,  but I am glad the cover and the &quot;outing&quot; is over.

If Danny is being signed, he will be announced next (they tend to go in succession). If Allison is announced next, then they have passed on Gokey.
I don&#039;t think they&#039;ll take that long in announcing any other signings.  I think Allison will be pushed in the pop route, and also used for Disney-related stuff.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;But, I wonder how Kris fans are going to feel when he puts out a Dave Hodges song like Crush and not that singer/songwriter/Mraz stuff. &lt;/blockquote&gt;

Erm, Dave Hodges was in Evanessnce, a ROCK BAND.  He wrote songs with Kelly Clarkson.  He doesn&#039;t specialize in Teenybopper music.  He writes all kinds of stuff.  It&#039;s impossible to conclude what Kris&#039;s album is going to sound like based on news of one collaborator, not to mention by singling out just one song the guy wrote.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m betting that the 19 has Allison pidgeon-holed for Latina teen pop. Her first single will be something along the lines of &quot;Open Toes&quot;, only in Spanish.</description>

		<description>I think David Hodges used to be a member of Evanescence and wrote for Kelly Clarkson. He&#039;s written for many different people and so you can&#039;t say just because he did songs for David Archuleta means that Kris and David are going to have the same sound. 

I heard rumors that Desmond Chiles is writing for Adam. Desmond wrote Who Let The Dogs Out. Does that mean Adam is getting an album full of Nickelodeon castoffs for his album? Heck no. </description>

		<description>ginger-I think Allison was nervous on that stage.I also think that she will be better in the studio and on the tour because people wont be judging her and
she&#039;ll be having fun being herself.Who said that people at Jive were expecting her already? Thats awesome.</description>

		<description>Gingerly, I missed the Kris thread about his signing, too, because the link to in on the thread with the pictures of baskietball stars, didn&#039;t really lead to anything abou this signing, but rather to something abou Brett Michaels.  The link here if you click on &quot;have&quot; of &quot;Have signed&quot; goes to the press release.  I hadn&#039;t seen it before either.  Glas it is here.</description>

		<description>Oops, sorry. I don&#039;t think I was paying attention to what I was typing earlier. I meant to say that it&#039;s untrue that Kris will go the teen pop route. I think him and Allison were the most obvious in what kind of music they will be doing post idol (on the show) so I don&#039;t know why it&#039;s just assumed that they will change directions for them.</description>

		<description>I think Kris and Adam will definitely get the most push in terms of the 19E/R/M marketing machine. Adam is obviously very good at keeping himself in the public eye without a lot of help from anyone, anyway, while Kris seems to have a pretty broad appeal as long as they don&#039;t try and turn him into a teen pop guy. Which I doubt they will do -- he is a little too old for that, and his sound isn&#039;t teen pop, anyway. But I think the company is also very excited about Allison&#039;s potential, so they will likely also try and get some solid publicity for her as well.

I haven&#039;t heard or seen much buzz on any of the other AI finalists in terms of them getting record deals. I wonder if 19 is going to wait until after the tour to see which ones can sustain interest from the fans and then decide whether to sign them? If I remember correctly, they have like a 3-month exclusive hold on all the finalists once the show ends -- after that, if 19 doesn&#039;t sign them (or they decide to rebuff 19) then they can all look for other deals.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;I wonder how much marketing and stuff theyÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢ll do for Allison because with KrisÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢, he got a $1m contract for winning. IÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢m thinking theyÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢ll push out AllisonÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s album sooner like how they did for Kellie Pickler so that sheÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s still fresh in peopleÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s minds.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

They also did for Kristy Lee Cook.  Yeah, it could be good or bad being pushed depending on many factors. I think that Allison&#039;s biggest hurdle is that she didn&#039;t sell as well as some of the others on iTunes, so I truly hope they give her material that is worthy of her voice and her awesomeness.  I&#039;m not convinced that they will and I&#039;m not convinced that she (at her young age) has the savvy to do what she needs to do.  I hope I&#039;m pleasantly surprised.</description>

		<description>the teen pop thing for Kris is just an assumption because David Hodges wrote crush and is working with kris, and is also untrue. Also, Adam&#039;s press release just seems like it&#039;s getting more attention because it&#039;s paired together with his Rolling Stone cover. I doubt anyone but AI fans really keeps up with who gets album deals in general.

		<description>Allison could put out an amazing album, and I think Matt has a great vibe, too.  Love Kris, and can hardly wait for his album.</description>

		<description>Is there a thread about Kris Allen signing?  Have I missed it in all the Adam Lambert threads here?  I certainly hope I&#039;ve not missed anything but think maybe I have.

ETA:  Yep, I missed it in all the Adam Lambert fabulous threads...I&#039;m so glad it was here.</description>

		<description>ALLISON! I&#039;m happy for her.I dont expect the media to make a big deal about her deal like what they did with Adam.Allison isnt in the media as much as adam or kris yet.So im not expecting a huge amount of hype for her deal.
She will be a break-out star though.The girl is more talented and more mature than most people her age.Everything about her is WIN.

Kris isnt David Archuleta.Dodge has written for TONS of artist.He written for Dashboard Confessional,Clarkson, Daughtry,Evanescence and more.He&#039;s not a teen pop kind of songwriter.David Archuleta is the only teen i know that he worked with.Hodge is a creditable songwriter.We know that Kris writes songs.So i expect something good.

Where and who said that jive been expecting Allison to join for a while? sounds awesome.

There been people from 19 saying that they will promote kris and adam.Lets hope they meant 
Allison and Matt as well.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m with all of you who want to see Matt signed along with Adam, Kris and Allison.  It would be a perfect season of American Idol for me if that happens.</description>
