1. crappy reality tv
2. shows that promise to change your life (like america's next top model, so you think you can dance, and american idol)
however, even with my promise, i still decided to watch the finale, mostly out of curiosity (and because i had heard that there was this one adam lambert guy who was smoking hot). so watch, i did.
for those of you like myself, who didn't know that much about this season's contestants, here's some background information.
kris allen, 23, conway, AR
adam lambert, 26, san diego, CA
i don't really know what to comment on both. adam i have heard for the first time last night on the finale, and if i were to compare voices, adam would win in that department. kris also has an amazing voice, but maybe adam has more experience.
kris i have also heard for the first time last night, but after he won i became more curious and searched his american idol journey on youtube. turns out he sang two of my favorite songs, heartless (kanye west), and apologize (one republic). so i decided right then and there that i love him for life.
the finale was pretty intense. i appreciated kris very much. when ryan seacrest asked him how he felt after winning, kris's response was "but what about adam?". clearly, he thought adam deserved this more than he did. i can't help it, i adore people who put others first, not themselves. and the best part was that you could tell kris was being totally genuine.
other highlights of the finale had to be the bikini girl (whose name i can't remember right now), and that amazingly ridiculous specimen, tatianna del torro, who just stormed onstage and started singing. i actually believe that was the best part of the night. it would have been better if the security guards would've actually taken her offstage, though.
in the end, i have nothing else to say. well, except for the fact that i really like that song, no boundaries. :p....i don't know if the best one won, at this point i believe it doesn't even matter. both boys are very talented and both will get amazing record deals. and even though adam didn't win...maybe he'll even do better than kris...i mean, look at chris daughtry, jennifer hudson and david archuleta. even though they weren't the winners, they have become successful and influential people in the music industry. i wish the best of luck to both of them. and i'll be sure to buy both their cd's.
