Hey thanks for this link!! I entered to win the guitar!

I’ll bet the Christmas song is beautiful! IIRC it goes down into that lower register. I wonder if this is what he sings at the Disney Christmas parade.

I’m looking forward to this vid and many other from the Jingle Balls!

I too add my welcome tophdrmom .

Oh well, I missed this one , but I’m trying to be positive and I’m sure that Kris will have a long career. I’ll catch him in other magazines.

I can’t wait for the videos of the Jinggleball Sacramento to turn up.

Cool and I can’t wait!!!

Um, TwigLA, a scan would be MUCH appreciated!

Kris performs today at the JingleBall concert in Sacramento and apparently he is rehearsing:
Gigatone:Kris Allen is here rehearsing and I’m reaching for Eric Carmen “Tonight You’re Mine” (Arista, 1980). Killer Track = “It Hurts Too Much”.

The full page pic of Kris on the cover is drop dead gorgeous. He’s wearing a very flattering dark green long sleeve shirt cuffed up and his ’sexy face’. It’s a shame that the article doesn’t mention his album is in stores now.

I also like his random tweets. It is funny to see them on the front page of KAO.

I can’t wait to hear it “allenized”!

I hope this is helpful.

I know it is too late now, but where does the USA Weekend come with ? What newspaper ? Is it regional ?

I got caught up with following some of the AI 8 singers’ Twitter accounts during the AI Tour though I had not heard any of them sing. I watched youtube videos from the AI tour of several of the idols & I really liked what I saw of Kris. Then he started really showing his personality on his Twitter so I started paying more attention.

I listened to his album when it streamed online & I liked it. The more I listened to it the more I like it. The only song on the album I don’t like is the new version of Heartless. Personally I think the producer screwed that up completely. They should have let him record the acoustic version he did on AI. (Yes, I did find a copy of it after I read about it.)

Kris is the only other artist from AI besides Clay that I’ve actually bought his album at both iTunes & Walmart simply because I wanted the bonus songs.

I think Kris will do well with Radio & will grow his fanbase through lots of touring. I’m looking forward to seeing him perform his own music live.

I really like his album & am enjoying his interviews. He’s just so damn cute.”

WOW that’s refreshing to know! A lot of time I see the non-fans just keeps saying how boring he or his music is. Problem with those people is that they just don’t get him.

And Btw, I’ve joined twitter just to follow Kris otherwise I won’t have never joint.

Does anybody know when the Parade magazine with Kris Allen is going to be ? He is not on this past weekend edition.

If you mean USA Weekend (similar to Parade), it was this past weekend. Kris looked good on the cover. There was a small article inside, about half a page, with another pic.

Yeah, I can make a link. It is really worth a read. Great interview for those who missed it.

It’s good to be a Kris’ follower on twitter. He is just too funny! Plus he doesn’t over tweet at all though there’re times I wish he will tweet a little more’ ¦

I’ve become a Kris fan just from following his twitter. He’s got the greatest sense of humor.

I really like his album & am enjoying his interviews. He’s just so damn cute.

@sunny2: I heard a different version of the auditions story. I can’t remember where I read it, but the part about them showing up late was mentioned. I think it was that they showed up and they were the past few people in line and the admissions people were starting to turn people away. Kris, Daniel and Cale had guitars with them and they gave the admissions people some line about how the guitars would get messed up if they were staying out in the sun for long, and so they were let in

Starr, it was a four part interview from Los Angeles Times online. Part I – Aug 17′09, part II Aug 19, part III Aug 20, Part IV Aug 21.

It was a great interview. Maybe you can search it and make a link.
I would have done it , but I don’t know how to do it. Sorry.

I love the part II interview where it shows how his expectation of going to Idol is not that high at all and yet he won the whole thing.

Does anybody know when the Parade magazine with Kris Allen is going to be ? He is not on this past weekend edition.

Can anyone make out what Kris said in response to her first question about ‘the Adam Lambert performance’  ‘“ she interrupted what he was saying with ‘I feel for him’ ? (I hate when a host asks a question and then doesn’t let the person answer) I’d like to know what he started to say’ ¦

He just said “Adam’s performance”–repeating her. It just wasn’t a big deal to Kris.

I am not surprised she asked Kris about this (her knickers were in quite the twist about it a week ago – she seems to have rethought her position) being that Kris knows Adam and Kris was in the audience.

I thought it was so sweet that BH brought up what his dad was thinking about all of this and just how proud he must be!

I thought they sounded good once again on LLWD, and I still have not grown tired of that song whatsoever.

Also, on the marriage thing I sometimes wonder if Kris is just thinking, this is all I know in my marriage. This hasn’t changed anything because this is what we’ve always had since the beginning.
