Did Kris Allen Win 'American Idol' Because Of His Looks?

[hello kitty]

Who says looks don't get you far? Certainly no one who watched last night as Kris Allen took the coveted title of American Idol Season 8 winner. After the announcement, he seemed as shocked as we all were and was left with very little to say.
How is it that Kris Allen was able to take home the grand prize when Lambert is clearly the stronger, more artistic and original singer? Well, Allen is simply more likable. Perhaps because of his looks or perhaps because he is the boy next door. As Lambert was by far the most original, "out of the box" contestant the show has ever seen, Allen was one of the most humble, docile and quite frankly, best looking ones.

SammyG voted for him, that's why

SammyG voted for him, that's why

Sammy probably voted for him based on his looks, though.

You have to remember that these are the same people (or children thereof) who voted for Bush (twice), Clinton (twice), Reagan (twice).

Why does this surprise you.

Sammy G had bad sex with Kris Allen

Adam Lambert lost because America hates faggots. Just the way it is.

[SammyG]

I agree with Narcissus.

And no, I voted for Adam.

Kris Allen won because of Danny's fans voting for him rather than Adam. Adam has his fans, Kris had his, but when Danny got eliminated, Danny's fans sympathized with Kris more than Adam. That's what made the difference in my opinion.

Lambert's voice is really good but he totally looks like a flaming faggot.

[YOUR Hero]

Well looks and likability are certainly attributes that help win American Idol.

I think it really bolied down to people voting for the underdog, and Allen was a huge underdog going in. That's why the competition probably shouldn't be left up to the public.

Haha. You voted in American Idol. :rofl:

See, that's the thing. Adam was clearly the better singer, but America was scared to vote for a gay guy.

[DaveWadding]

Except SammyG. Samuel G is a forward thinking fag lover.
