And the winner is...

American Idol had it's final show of the season tonight and a side from being unbelievably good I'm sure there will be a lot of disappointed faces out there. What a great final show. I think it's definitely one of the best idol finales ever.

There were a ton of guest musicians and group numbers. Among them were KISS, Queen, Rod Stewart, the Black Eyed Peas, Cyndi Lauper and even Kara singing in a bikini. At the end of the night it was Kris Allen, the down to earth guy from Arkansas that took the crown. Just less than a 100 million votes were cast and in the end Adam Lambert, the eyeliner wearing showstopper was left in second place.

Now I know there will be much debate about this topic and who the winner should have been and personally I think the American voters got it wrong. But I will say that they are both extremely talented and will go on to do bigger things. Adam did get his face out there and was able to sing with the best of them. If you missed tonights finale you missed out on a lot. Adam came out in black wire wings and sang a medley with KISS. It was full of fireworks and pyrotechnics and one of the best performances of the season. If ever KISS needed a replacement singer Adam could definitely step. He fit so well.

Anyways that's enough of me singing Adam's praises. Congrats to Kris. He did make it this far and was a dark horse in the competition. I look forward to seeing the Idols this summer in concert.
