Kris Allen Prank Calls a Vocal Coach
Kris Allen does a prank call for a radio station where he calls a vocal coach and says he wants to sound like Adam Lambert. The vocal coach says that the whole Adam Lambert-Kris Allen thing isn't that good and says he prefers Clay Aiken. The call goes on for a good few minutes where the coach keeps saying that that Kris guy is "alright" and Kris humors him by saying "that Kris guy sucks." Kris is really showing a great sense of humor recently, we need more of this.
Kris Allen - Preview of Song "Can't Stay Away"
Kris Allen performed at a Miami Dolphins tailgate party and debuted some of his new songs. The clip above is low quality, but you can get an idea of what his original song "Can't Stay Away" sounds like. It's not bad. Certainly 100 times better than "Live Like We're Dying", so Who might have a chance of having a career yet. We shall see. (Via TopIdol)
Kris Allen Performs "Baby One More Time"
Decent singer. Decent looking. And he has a sense of humor. Wow, 19E actually lucked out here. And they're going to throw it away with crap like "Live Like We're Dying". Typical. (Via Examiner Chicago)
Kris Allen's Album Cover
19E finally gets a semi-attractive winner and they pick a weird looking shot of him for his album cover? And they use funky looking font that looks thrown together? Well, looks like they're not putting the time into promoting this one.
Kris Allen's Upcoming CD Described as "Bad Leftovers from Daughtry’s Last Album"
Rickey.org has heard some information about Kris Allen's upcoming album. And needless to say, it's not good:
People have described it to me as: “It needs a lot of work.” With one track being “a total embarrassment.” The tracks sounded like “bad left-overs from Daughtry’s last album.”
This just goes to show that VFTW and other people who voted for Kris Allen to win did the right thing. The powers that be wanted Adam Lambert to win, so much so that Kris isn't even getting quality material for his new album. We bet the album will be forgettable, which is sad, because Kris could probably write his own music and make a decent album. Yet he'll be stuck recording with lame producers that no one cares about. Why would Kris's label throw away what is likely an easy sell? Who knows.
Kris Allen - Debut of His Single "Live Like We're Dying"
Besides the overly cliche title, the lyrics and melody are beyond bland. It seems perfectly suited for Adult Contemporary radio, but even Kris can do better than this. It's just a cover of some other band's bad song. Time will tell if radio will bother to play this. It'll either sink or swim based on its blandness.
Kris Allen Tries to Rent His Apartment, Might Be Recording With Daughtry
Ah, the life of American Idol winner Kris Allen. He seems like a nice enough guy, but currently he's making two big profile mistakes that could hurt him in the long run. First, TMZ reports that he's trying to sublet his apartment in Cabot, Arkansas since he's currently touring and will then be living in Hollywood. Apparently Kris forgets that the frauen have lots of extra money and lots of extra time to be creepy. It shouldn't be long before a creepy 400 pound woman rents the place and does unemtnionable things to all of his stuff while he's gone. Second, MJ's Big Blog has a photo of Kris in a recording studio with Chris Daughtry. Daughtry's new album shouldn't sell anywhere near what his last one did, so he's on a downward spiral. Don't get caught in that Kris. Kelly Clarkson almost made that mistake, but thankfully somehow got out of it. So what's the summary here? Kris, don't rent your apartment to a frau and don't record with Daughtry if you want any kind of career.
Popeater premiered Kris's first video today. It's not bad, but what's the point in having a clock counting down if the numbers constantly jump around and nothing happens when it hits zero? Kind of anticlimactic, don't you think?
