Kris Allen On Adam Lambert Crush: “I Think It’s Hilarious”

People magazine got an exclusive reaction from Kris Allen to Adam Lambert’s admission in his Rolling Stone cover story that he found his Idol roomie “cute” (And so thinking someone’s cute = having a crush on them? Whatevs.):

In his Rolling Stone cover story, American Idol runner-up Adam Lambert admitted he’d been crushing on his roommate in the Idol mansion, Kris Allen.

“I was like, ‘Oh, s—, they put me with the cute guy … Distracting!” Lambert told the magazine. “He’s the one guy that I found attractive in the whole group on the show … totally my type à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬’ except that he has a wife.”

Allen’s response? “I’m flattered,” the Idol winner tells PEOPLE exclusively, “And think it’s hilarious.”

Kris is both a good sport and tres cool.

  • Tess:

    great idea for him to come out so soon

    I swear by all things holy that this sentiment drives me absolutely nuts. How can someone who has never been IN come OUT?

    I just don’t get it!

  • TKat:

    You are seriously cracking me up now, Utne Readerà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ ¦.how I wish that was really a jokeà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ ¦.. Ià ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢m all for the secret Lambert Lovers support group. I was in the U district yesterday looking so ho hum about the fact that they had the Lady Gaga RS still and ended up reading the Advocate, which also had a Lambert story by the way, so I probably lost cool points either way. Whatever (TM Lambert).

    Ha! LMAO!!

    I don’t think that you can even buy a copy of the Utne Reader or Advocate where I live! But we still need to have a “secret Lambert Lovers support group” branch here, too! Of course, rural Mississippi is not exactly America’s liberal hot bed — but the need is just as great.

  • Ellie2:

    Damn it, Borders still doesn’t have the RS! I’m starting to feel like a stalker…

  • Mary102:

    Damn it, Borders still doesnà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t have the RS! Ià ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢m starting to feel like a stalkerà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ ¦

    Yeah, Borders and Walmart didn’t have it yesterday, but I figured today was the “official” day it’s supposed to hit newsstands, so what gives?

  • Ellie2:

    Well, the guy at Borders told me to try back this afternoon. He said it might be in the shipment they get around noon. So I guess I’ll be out stalking again later today.

    This guy has a reaction I see from a lot of Straight guys about Adam being Gay and rooming with Kris.

    I’m not going to bother to click on the link because I saw enough of the anti-gay stuff on Adam before the RS article. And if someone is so worked up about it that they have to make a vlog, then they have got some issues.

    I am hoping many young men and boys will see Kris’s reaction’s to Adam’s RS interview. Kris is a great role model.

    As far as those DJ’s and their anti-gay rant mentioned by Storm???, I would love to know where this radio station is. If I heard that kind of crap here in Los Angeles, I would boycott that station. I also think if that station was in LA, (or any other large metropolitan city) there would be a public outcry and those DJs would be fired. So I am going to assume this radio station must be in some small hick town where it is acceptable to be prejudice. Yeah, I said it. And on that closing note, Adam and Kris are really doing a wonderful job on setting examples on how real men behave. Rock on Kris and Adam.

    Fellow Magnolia Stater here; I think the famous Square Books in Oxpatch may carry Utne, if not the Advocate. And for the record, LOTS of Adam fans where I am…I think he may have even carried the state on election ni…oops, sorry, final vote night!

  • Thanks, xuziqueue! Love the pics. Such a cute little kid!

    Shamu! Heh…

    storm45701, which radio station is that? Their remarks really need to be publicized widely and those homophobes put up to national ridicule.

    The guy just didnà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t want to be seen buying the Adam Lambert Rolling Stone!

    TFLS, was the guy buying Rolling Stone or a porn magazine? ROFL!

  • JR Labrador:

    Another Seattlelite here. Showing enthusiasm for anything around here is just so uncool. Got to maintain your ironic detachement at all costs.

    Topic: Kris Allen is my new hero.

  • oceanarose:

    I loved Adam this season and always really like Kris. The more I see and hear from these two the more I love them. I had every intention of buying both their albums all along. I also am sure that this was not the first Kris had heard of Adam’s attraction (for lack of a better word). They seem to both be pretty open with each other so I’m sure Adam let Kris know this pretty early on. Can’t wait to see both on tour and hear their albums.

  • kijico3:

    .

    LOL Thatà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s why Kris thinks it was hilarious. Adam never actually said he had a crush.

    I think the two of them are getting a kick out of the mediaà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s total ridiculousness.

    This!

  • will:

    TV Guide.comà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s Matt Mitovich discusses Adamà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s Rolling Stone interview and praises the article. Of course, Matt brings up Adamà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s feelings for Kris. Check it out here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fcl_RSwu_6U.

    xuziqueue – That link doesn’t work.

  • CindyM:

    Take off the period at the end and the link works.

  • will:

    Thanks CindyM!

  • will:

    I know this is off-topic, but in that TV Guide video, Mitovich says that Fox gave Adam the option of disclosing his sexual orientation during the show and he chose not to. (Apparently that’s in the RS interview, which I haven’t read yet.) That’s interesting to me, because I’ve seen comments in other forums claiming that AI/Fox forbids gay contestants from talking about it during the show. I never believed that to be true, that it was the contestants themselves who make that choice. So I’m glad he set the record straight, no pun intended.

  • AI/Fox may have had some policy in the past, or at least strongly discouraged contestants from being open about being gay (e.g. Jim Verraros) but apparently not this year, according to Adam.
