American Idol is over. Season 9 is months away.

Adam Lambert and Kris Allen went head to head last night, but who will win?

Almost 100 million votes came in last night. Wasn’t me; all I got was “your call cannot be completed as dialed.”

American Idol winner David Cook sang “Permanent”. All the iTunes proceeds of this song will go to brain cancer research.

American Idol | Battle of the Guyliner?

American Idol finale is underway! Kris Allen won the coin toss and chose to go 2nd.

Each Idol will sing 3 songs, one chosen by Simon Fuller, one they chose and one Kara chose and co-wrote.

Adam Lambert starts with Mad World.

Randy – loved everything; gave him an A+
Kara – happy he chose that song
Paula – proud of him
Simon – little bit over-theatrical. ya think?

Kris Allen sang Ain’t No Sunshine.

Randy – one of his best performances!
Kara – has a way of creating an intimate bond with everyone in the audience
Paula – a great artist
Simon – wasn’t sure last week, but he absolutely takes all that back; he loved it!

Simon Cowell called Kris the winner of round 1!

Simon Fuller chose Change Is Going To Come for Adam Lambert.

Randy – he likes everything
Kara – using both sides of himself?
Paula – is nuts, that’s the best she’s ever heard from him?
Simon – 100% back in the game

Simon Fuller chose What’s Going On for Kris Allen.

Randy – real live dual competition; little bit light for this room.
Kara – been true to himself since day 1.
Paula - tore that song up and made Marvin Gaye proud.
Simon – 3 friends in their bedroom strumming along to Marvin Gaye.

Simon Cowell called Adam Lambert winner of round 2!

Both Idols will be singing No Boundaries co-written by American Idol judge Kara. Of course it sounds like a Broadway song.

Adam Lambert is up first and it sounds like Broadway.

Randy – dude can sing anything, but that was not one of his favorite performances.
Kara – she’s moved.
Paula – adjectives can’t express what you brought to season 8.
Simon – most original contestants on the show.

Kris Allen sings the same song and he knocked it out of the park!

Randy – should be very proud; song fits his voice better than Adam.
Kara – don’t want to be judged on that song because it was too high.
Paula – did an amazing job.
Simon – 1st song was his highlight. Thoroughly deserves to be standing on the stage.

American Idol has about come to an end. Who will win?

American Idol | Danny GaGa Go-GoKey Home!

American Idol is about to choose the final 2 Idols.

We’ve had a long, drawn out night thanks to Ryan Seacrest. Well, it’s not really Ryan’s fault.

Jordin Sparks performed her new song “Battlefield” and Katy Perry stole Adam Lambert’s cape for her performance.

Well, American Idol has announced their final 2 American Idols.

Kris Allen and Adam Lambert will be competing for the American Idol title.

Do you think Kris has what it takes to win the crown?

Or do you think Adam Lambert will be our next American Idol?

American Idol Chit Chat | Shocking Best, Worst, and a Judges Desperation!

American Idol top 3 performed last night and it was quite shocking.

Danny Gokey - Paula Abdul chose “Dance Little Sister” for him and it was amazing.

Danny’s 2nd song, “You Are So Beautiful” was a vocal master class according to Simon!

Kris Allen - Randy and Kara chose “Apologize” for him and Simon chastised the other Idol judges for criticizing the song they chose for him!

Kris chose “Heartless” for his 2nd song and it was outstanding! Randy Jackson said he liked Kris’ version better than the original!

Adam Lambert - American Idol judge Simon Cowell chose “One” for him, which split the judges. Randy didn’t love it, because Adam went too far off the melody.

Adam chose “Crying” for his 2nd song and I was looking forward to it. The American Idol judges drooled all over him, but it was a mess. The screaming went too far, he was off in parts, and it just wasn’t a good performance.

American Idols Kris Allen and Danny Gokey clearly out sang and outperformed Adam Lambert and the judges knew it, too.

Simon Cowell’s desperate request to vote and not assume Adam safe was obvious.

Adam assumes he is safe; it shows in his performances and his attitude.

Based on last night’s performances, American Idol’s Kris Allen and Danny Gokey should end in the finals with Kris Allen crowned the winner.

Wouldn’t that be an American Idol upset?

American Idol Judge Paula Abdul Performs!

American Idol judge Paula Abdul performs on the Idol stage for the first time singing her new song, “I’m Just Here for the Music.”

No Doubt performed “Just A Girl” and it was a very lively performance!

Daughtry performed their newest single “No Surprise” and I think he has another winner.

3 of the American Idols, Kris Allen, Adam Lambert, and Danny Gokey will have a hometown celebration.

American Idol wannabe Allison Iraheta will be going home without a celebration.

American Idol God?

American Idol judge Kara told Adam Lambert that he was a rock and roll God.

Adam Lambert did an awesome job last night but he's no rock and roll God.

Rumors have been circulating that Kara will not be returning as judge on American Idol next year, but so far, they're just rumors. Too bad.

Was it me or could my two dogs have done a better job than Kris and Danny? I love them both, but their performance was amateur at best.

American Idols Allison and Adam performed well together, but more rumors have Allison going home tonight.

Will Allison be the next American Idol wannabe to get cut?
