Kris Is Not Good Enough

Simon Cowell stated in an interview that Kris Allen is not good enough to compete in the finale with Adam Lambert, and that is why he wants Danny Gokey to advance. See for yourself:

Adam's such a wailer though- tired of that high pitched scream. Kris's 2nd song was awesome and loved Danny from the beginning.

Kris as proven himself to be awesome! Adam is becoming boring and predictable. Danny is coming out to his own. The final two should be Danny and Kris. Adam will be fine no matter what!

Well Simon Cowell is a huge talent judge. So I trust his judgement when it comes to spotting talent. I mean this guy built his business on spotting future money makers and helping them to become famous. He's like the owner of a TV Production and he also owns a Music Publishing House. He promoted singles and financed records for various artists some of which he has hand picked for stardom and takes them all the way to the top. He has a gift for combining music with tv to entertain and then create new artists. He has said in this tv production that the judges help but the twist here is that the audience gets to vote, so it doesn't always lead to the one artist he would pick. And those artist he doesn't pick who win he doesn't sign. Every AI winner and runner up is someone Simon Cowell can sign to his record labels. So when Simon Cowell says Kris can't compete with Adam vocally and that Danny has the best chance vocally I listen. In the TV Guide interview Simon said Kris Allen will be very successful with his career after American Idol. He did not say that about Lil Rounds. I think there is a lot of merit to what he says.

It should have been Danny and Adam in the top two. If anyone is going soley by the talent of their voices, they would know that Danny and Adam are the best out of the 3. ALTHOUGH I actually would have preferred Allison and Danny in the top two ;)

Yeah, Simon is a *cough* huge talent alright. He said no to David Cook last year. 58 million votes said YES to David Cook.

Yeah right, too bad those votes don't equal sales. Even with the momentum of the Idol win, Cook's debut album took a really long time before it finally went platinum. Forget about multiplatinum cause that's never going to happen. He's doing better than Sparks and Hicks, but still on the low end of the list of past winners. Simon wisely said no to Cook because he already had Daughtry who is still doing extremely well.

haha...to the person who said they trust Simon's judgment?!!! Simon said no to David Cook in Hollywood last year, and David Cook won by a landslide. Simon missed it again this year. Go Kris!!

Oh yeah...Cook has outsold Archuleta (his competition in the finale), so think again.
