I know I'm nearly a week late posting this, but better late than never, eh?
Honestly though, what's going on? How did Kris win? To any open-minded human-being, it's obvious Adam is far more talented.
Wanna know how it happened? Because our country is full of hypocritical, homophobic, close-minded, religious freaks. I don't think Adam is gay, but even if he is, I would still have voted for him. American Idol is a contest about singing and performing talents, not about how you feel about a contestant's sexual orientation.
Listen to this, guys. Out of the ninety-eight million votes cast, thirty-eight million came from Arkansas. Do tell, how a state with a population of well under three million can cast that many votes in four hours.
Because the bible-belt religious fanatics are such extreme homophobes, they used machines that call the same number repeatedly. As soon as the vote was cast, the machine would hang-up and call again.
Now don't get me wrong, Kris Allen is an extremely talented vocalist. I have no doubt he will lead a successful career in the music industry. However, the fact remains that Adam Lambert is more deserving on the crown. Before I saw Adam sing "Bohemian Rhapsody" at his audition, I would have preferred to castrate myself that to watch American Idol. But his amazing talent and attitude, combined with the friendly, confident aurora he gives off,I was hooked.
For any of you who didn't watch and Idol this season and don't know why I'm making such a fuss about an Idol runner-up, do me a favor. Go watch Adam's performance or "One" by U2, "Whole Lotta Love" by Led Zeppelin, and his duet with Allison of "Slow Ride" by Foghat. You will understand exactly why I am so sure that Adam deserved that trophy.
To close my rant, I would like to say that I cannot wait for the day that Adam Lambert goes multi-platinum, and comes to sing in front of a sold-out crowd, in Arkansas. I have no doubt it will happen, and it is only a matter of when.
Many thanks for spending your time reading this.
GO ADAM!

Lol, I had no idea you were such a fan. I didn't want American Idol, but I totally see where you're coming from. America is so close minded it's rediculous. I've always believed that if you were president, you shouldn't ever make decisions based over your religious beliefs. I think when you use your beliefs to influence the nation, it's against everything...well...American. I mean, we have so many different cultured people in this society. It's rediculous that you HAVE to be a christian to be president. It's rediculous that a president can't pass a bill saying Gay Rights is legal in all states just because he doesn't want his approval rating to go down. I'm pretty liberal myself, and I'm not Christian. I don't exactly have a religious belief, but I have my morals and I have my own beliefs on how things should be run. Let's say you're an athiest and you want to be president. You would get burned! I mean, it's seriously retarded. Athiests aren't bad people. They just haven't stuck themselvs to a religious belief. I mean. Big Deal. I don't classify myself as anything particular. All I know is what I believe and what I know. And I run with that.
