Kris Allen is the New American Idol

Everyone was waiting for the result of American Idol last night. There are some who wanted Adam Lambert to win and some are Kris Allen's fans. I would be honest, I never liked Kris Allen. I can listen to his voice but his facial expressions annoyed me so much.

I read from one magazine, Simon Cowell predicted that it was Danny Gokey and Adam Lambert in the finals. Meaning, he never foresaw Kris Allen as the next Idol. But, when I watched the finale last Tuesday, I had a feeling that it is Kris who will bag the title of the next American Idol. It's all because of his fine and hair-raising rendition of the song "No Boundaries" that was written by Kara DioGuardi.

He sang it so good! As if it was his own song. I was moved by Kris Allen's performance of "No Boundaries". I even can still hear it till now as I am making this blog about his winning.

Congratulations, Kris Allen. You deserved to win.

Matt Giraud: Pride Of Michigan

Matt Giraud is from Kalamazoo, Michigan. Not very far from where I am now, hehe... Matt is my personal favorite, not just because he is from Michigan but he is a good and talented performer. He is performig here in one bar here in Kalamazoo.

Matt Giraud was on the second batch of 12 contestants in American Idol 8 but he did not make it. Michigan was hoping and praying that he would make it on the wild card. And he did it!

He is one of the 7 finalists but tonight, April 15, he got the lowest vote and he was given the chance to sing for hi life. I know and we know that Simon Cowell would give him that chance to make till the end of the contest. Simon Cowell gave Matt Giraud a third chance. Simon Cowell believed in Matt Giraud and he don't want him to go yet. Simon knows that there are so many things that Matt can give, and so as Kara Diogardi.

Matt Giraud didn't help himself, he broke to tears, tears of happiness. He is so blessed. From wild card to magic card. Go, go, go, Matt!
