My eyes happen to look at facial expressions ‘ ¦ and hands. Kris has the most magnificent hands.

Um, yeah. Kris Allen has very nice hands…

I for one wouldn’t mind if Kris never “steps it up” in an interview. If his style evolves or changes, fine, but I want him to continue to be Kris. It seems to be working quite nicely for him.

Really looking forward to part two of the coral shir… er, I mean the interview.

LOL, what I find funny is that Kris is so adorable and good looking that there was plenty to discuss w/o any kind of extra “polish”. However, for me what stood out most was what he had to say in this interview.

This boy’s shizzatt had best be tight. Really tight. Becuz with Kris, brilliant music might mean 700K-1M, but mediocre stuff will mean Blake Lewis-type numbers-500K. Let’s face it, he’s got a few obstacles to overcome: next-to-zero internet hype, a total lack of media buza and about as much personality, star power and charisma as my pet rock. Best of luck to him. Seems like a nice guy.

I agree with you, nice guy but for me (for you) nothing much going on there, I think he needs to step it up a notch in the interview, performance, outfits department, he ´s young so he has a lot of time to develop that.

I love Kris’s arms and his smile. When he smiles I really start melting. Do you think Is It Over might be the one with Daughtry. It so sounds like a Daughtry type title. Also Let It Rain title is different then the title Lyndsey gave she said it was called Let The Rain. It’s basically the same thou she just put in The and Walmart has It. Which sounds like it should go better when you say the Title.

Yeah, everything TwigLA said for me too – both times. ITA about the hands – yeah.

Can’t wait for this music. Kris’ style —–> my wheelhouse.

I love how chill Kris appears to be. I see a sense of relief in him and at the same time a lot of excitement for the first time in a while. I am so excited to hear the CD.

And if we have to take the shallow route about his appearance, I’ll jump in. Love the hair (or lack-of), the criss- cross applesauce is so presh, the mumbly low sexy voice is to die for and Kris pointing out that he just spit cracks me up. How about the gun show? Wow !!! When does he have time to work out?

Bald guys are hot! Daughtry, anyone?

Somehow I don’t think Kris bald would = Daughtry bald. There is a difference between bald on purpose, which Daughtry is, and bald cuz you’ve lost your hair.

Actually, rattleandhum, Daughtry did shave his head because of very early hair loss. I think that was something the world learned about him in his AI auditions.

I agree with you on the Daughtry sinister look – but it’s more facial expression than hair or lack of. Kris couldn’t look sinister if he tried.

I don’t know how Kris would look completely bald, but I do know he looks hot in hats. Of course, my ears don’t have eyes and my brain takes me to personal life and experiences when I’m listening to music.

My eyes happen to look at facial expressions … and hands. Kris has the most magnificent hands.

ilovekrisallen39 — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 13:27:53 +0000

Yeah I wonder why the picture of Kris is missing to. And why didn’t they put LLWD. I agree with you TwigLA on all that you said above. I wonder if part two well be up before the first part was yesterday or if sooner. I really want to hear it so bad. Did you guy’s see Kris was on Fox and Friends today by statalight(sorry about spelling) and had a cheerleader on each side of him nothing new thou. But he looked so not comfortable at all. And the interviewer was so boring.

By: TwigLA

TwigLA — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 13:19:12 +0000

I’ll get the shallow out of the way. I happen to love Kris’ tousled hair look. If he was all styled and slick he wouldn’t be Kris Allen. I have no problem with thinning hair on men. Some of the sexiest and virile men I’ve known have had early hair loss. Many men (young and older) keep their hair close cropped or completely shaved. And there are always hats to keep a head warm or protected from the sun …. and I LOVE hats!

I do get the feeling that for many of these interviews they just got him out of bed or a cat nap and we’re getting to see him ‘wake up’. Given his schedule, this isn’t surprising. At the beginning of this interview, we see him stifle a yawn, rub some sleep from an eye, and :::snicker::: spit on Simon Fuller’s couch. The ‘Hello Kitty’ reveal was hilarious and for me was like ‘You can make or break me with this article/interview video and you keep your notes on a pre-teen notepad.’

I love how he is so comfortable in himself and in this interview to sit cross legged in the boss’ office. There is no pretension with him.

I’m happy to see that Kris is making the transition from being in awe of the people he’s meeting and working with to being a peer. He is gaining in confidence and belief in himself and learning that it is OK to speak positively about your own work.

When Kris wakes up he’s so darn comfortable and amiable. He is so obviously into the music. I especially liked what he said of Pop music – you have to appeal to the masses but for him, pop and rock also has to be good. Lots of musical integrity with this guy.

I can’t wait to watch Part 2 of the interview and I’m more than excited to hear the songs on the album.

Off note – Very odd that Walmart doesn’t have ‘Live Like We’re Dying’ in the track listings or a picture associated with the album.

Kris’ face is too pretty IMO to pull off the bald look whereas Daughtry looks kind of rough and a lil sinister.

Kris comes across well in this interview. He seems confident about his new songs and seems comfortable with Lindsey. He is a mellow kind of guy, but when he speaks, you can feel that he really cares about writing music.

Kris is so calm that he could be one of those astronauts that land on the moon or something. Good for him to get nine writing credits on his album!

I was just on Walmarts website looking for Kris CD and they have some tracks of Kris listed it has 13 songs on the list track with 6 songs listed and there’s two that I don’t think was listed yet. They were calledLifetime, and can’t remember if this was one of the titles Lyndsey listed but it’s called Is It Over. Also on the one that is Exclusive album from there it has 14 and that one is Called Send me all your Angels.

With Kris sitting that way, he looks as if he’s conversing with a friend, chillin’. Yup, just hanging out in Fuller’s office. Lol.

Oh Yes,…I’m so happy to see the media machine start to take notice of
BB Kris. Loved Lyndsey’s take on his pieces!!!!
Sounds like he may have more than one HIT in the mix. So proud of Kris for co-writing or writing 9 of the 12. He is an artist and I believe he has taken his art to the next level by being so authentic. Also kudos to him for being smart enough to brush up on his vocal skills,…very smart.!!!
I`m looking forward to buying his album for my partner, who said he was her favorite of S8!!!! For me GO KRADISON!!!!!!!!!!!!

Meh…balding happens. I’m 21 and I’m losing my hair much more quickly than I ever wanted to. I knew it was going to happen eventually but it’s depressing. I’m trying to get over it but it’s not easy lol. Someday maybe I can get a hair transplant

Kris’s hair isn’t actually that bad. It’s hard for me to tell because I don’t often look at really old pictures of him, but he doesn’t seem to be in serious danger of losing too much too quickly. It still looks fine.

the only thing that bothers me about his hair is that he’s starting to loose them. I wish he will do some hair transplant to fix what he already lost and will continue to take good care of them. He’s too young for baldness now

Whoa, he’s balding already? Umm, that might be bad, I think Daniel said he’s balding too.
