American Idol - The Winner is........I'm Sorry, What???!!!


I don't watch American Idol any more, with the exception of Adam Lambert. I will watch him, because finally, finally, FINALLY, in the 8th season there is someone who is truly an America Idol with star quality.

There was no doubt in my mind that Adam Lambert would win, none at all. I was sure that it was written somewhere, in stone, high on a mountain top, that this guy was going to be the winner.

I'm disgusted.

But then again, at least he doesn't have to keep singing the usual schmaltzy song winners are obligated to record and sing over and over and over for the rest of their lives. This year the drippy-hippy song, No Boundaries, was co-written by Kara Dioguardi.

Yes, no kidding, sweet, talented-in-a-run-of-the-mill-kind-of-way Kris Allen won over wild and delicious Adam Lambert.

Okay, having vented, I have not yet watched the show here on the West Coast, so I will have more comments after seeing how this plays out.
