I just wrote a song that would be perfect for Kris... anyone know how I can get it to him (or his people)?

^ Twitter? Um, I think Kris wants to write his on stuff, probably.

Good label; piss poor management, for him, anyway (for Fuller and Co., it's all about Adam). You win some; you lose some.

Even if Twitter is the devil, he needs to do something to get his name out there. He is quickly fading into oblivion in the midst of The Adam Lambert Universe.

If Kris has good music, he'll do fine. He'll have the promo. I mean...buzz is nice, but it doesn't mean much when it comes to selling music.

^ Yep. It's like comparing Jack Johnson to Jessica Simpson. Who's more famous, and has the most buzz? But who sells more albums? I think it's about the music, and how radio and people recieve it. He doesn't need to be super popular, and I don't think he wants to be, either way.

Well, that just made my whole day, week, month, year. ![](http://yoursmiles.org/ssmile/fun/s0270.gif) If this guy says that Kris and the song are awesome, I am a believer!

OMG I was just wondering earlier today if Kris would work with Claude Kelly. Claude always post updates from the studio so it just sorta came to my mind, but I quickly dismissed it! Can't believe they actually worked together!

Ehh, Claude Kelly? Hope the lists includes more talented folks. Out of songs I know he's done I only like "Circus". I half liked "My Life Would Suck Without You".

Any ideas on why Jive is not listed on Kris' official site (only 19)? Adam and Allison's sites list RCA and Jive, respectively (along with 19). I really get the feeling that they had no intention of signing Kris until they were forced into it. Their apparent lack of interest in supporting his career doesn't bode well, IMO.

Hellothere, I hope you know that Barry Weiss does not personally update the artists websites.
I would not read too much into Kris' career trajectory, based on the performance of the college student who updates the websites.

^^ Hellothere, if it's any consolation for you, Kris is listed on Jive/Zomba's artists page on their official web site whereas Allison isn't yet: zombalabelgroup.com/artists.htmlLike Audiogarden said, I wouldn't read anything into it in either case.

^ Cool pic. I'm happy to see them already in the studio. Kris looks like he's wondering why the paps won't leave them alone already. Adam looks like he's already used to being constantly photographed.

Yeah, he seems like a genuinely cool guy.
I'm intrigued by him working with Claude Kelly and David Hodges. I'm not sure what to expect but I have a feeling this album will be a solid debut, especially for an Idol's debut. There won't be any time wasted trying to find his niche. He's ready to just hop into the booth and record giving him an instant advantage. There's no guess work. I just hope they don't give him generic stuff like Cook. I loved him on the show but his album put me to sleep.

I want to know what he was writing to when he worked with Claude Kelly. Like what producer. Because Claude is only a writer. Unless they were just working out lyrics and melodies for production later, but that usually turns out hit or miss.

Kris Allen 'Flattered' By Adam Lambert's Crush'American Idol' champ thinks it's 'hilarious' that his onetime roommate finds him attractive. Kris Allen won the affections of the "American Idol" voters and runner-up Adam Lambert, who recently dished about his crush on the season-eight champ. "I was like, 'Oh, sh--, they put me with the cute guy,' " Lambert told Rolling Stone of his roommate during the show. "Distracting! He's the one guy I found attractive in the whole group on the show: nice, nonchalant, pretty and totally my type — except that he has a wife. I mean, he's open-minded and liberal, but he's definitely 100 percent straight." Well, it turns out Allen is cool with the attention. "I'm flattered," the "Idol" winner told People, "and think it's hilarious." www.mtv.com/news/articles/1613792/20090611/story.jhtmllol oh Kris.

www.divshare.com/download/7640930-450He just talked about writing for his album, his personal life (wife mostly) & he semi-defended Gokey because of what one of the radio interviewers said.

^ What did they say about Gokey?
I think they should skip the tour, put him in the studio and release an album. I'm getting impatient!
