This boy is dreamy, not gonna lie. Hope the material's a tad better than the single. My God, you're just cheating on Brian all over the board now.

Oh, I don't think they need to add anything extra. Just that beautiful face is enough. And jaw. Definitely dreamy.

A bit surprised they'd have Kris pose with the wedding ring so prominent though it's obviously not a secret that he's married. It's better than the last few Idol winners' album covers. Not unexpected for it to be self-titled, it almost seems like it's a rule now for the winner, though it wasn't always like that in the beginning. Anyway, I was expecting them to find some photo of him looking earnest and wearing plaid for the album cover, but this is so much better.

Not bad at all. Creative? No, but this is Jive. They are cheap with their covers. Check out Jordin and Archuleta's covers. Probably the best Jive has done with the Idol's so far.
Self titled on the cover was expected.

I actually do not care for the album cover photo. He looked better in the promo pic posted a couple about a week ago. I think I might be the only gay man on the board that isn't attracted to him in the least, lol. He's attractive but certainly overrated on this board. You are hotter than him.

He's adorable in a puppy dog sort of way. Different strokes for different folks though.

I'm not ashamed to admit it... I'm one of those people who will buy and support pretty, attractive people's music. He can also sing really well. I'm definitely purchasing this album.

Album cover is nice. Any promotional opportunities lined up? Or is this one just being tossed in the garbage bin?

He's starting his radio promo tomorrow. I think he had to have his part of the album completed by today. He's doing the Bosom Ball tomorrow. I expect he'll do LLWD at this show. He's also doing the Live At the Vineyard show. I believe he has a few of these coming up before album promo.
Album drops on Nov 17th I think? I know he has GMA that week. I iimagine he'll make the talk show rounds.
It would be nice if his official site had everything posted where you could find it.
Edit: This is what I was able to find. Q102 Bosom Ball for Breast Cancer October 15 - Q102 Bosom Ball for Breast Cancer, live on the Cincinnati Bell stage at the Madison Theater, in Covington, KY.
Live in the Vineyard Nov 7 through Nov 9 - Kris is performing at the Sunday night main concert in this "exclusive 'winners' only" event. Tickets can be won through radio stations Event details from the site : Performers for the weekend will include Collective Soul, Blue October, Five for Fighting, Uncle Kracker, Parachute, A Fine Frenzy, Green River Ordinance and American Idol stars Kris Allen and Kimberly Caldwell.
GMA Fall Concert Series Nov 17 - Kris will be promoting his album in the GMA fall concert series Miracle Near State Street 11 Chicago radio station, WTMX Mix101.9. December 4 - Kris (and also the Fray) will be

Radio promo is nice and hopefully it will help his airplay. But major promotional gigs are a lot better and reach massive amounts of people at one time. GMA isn't exactly what I mean. Any real promotional opportunities? Or is 19M otherwise occupied?

He needs some major TV promo because I don't think LLYD will be a huge hit in a month when this album drops. And early sales for the single are pretty weak. So he doesn't have the huge Idol fanbase that buys tons of copies the first week.
Let's see if there's any $ left for his promo this year. ;)

So use the major TV promo for promoting the album AND the single instead of wasting it right now on just the single. Holy hell...why would you waste opportunities promoting only one thing when in three weeks you can kill two birds with one stone? Debuting high and dropping off quickly is not something you want. I personally would rather have steady, sustained sales at the top (whether it's the single or the album) even if it means not the best start.

Looks like street got my point. What I am asking is: What type of major promotional gigs does he have lined up to promote anything (single and/or album)? Thus far, all I've heard about is GMA, which, honestly, isn't exactly what one would call major. The point here would be that it is obvious that he doesn't have a rabid Idol fan base (and, no, that is not a bad thing). It does, however, mean that he needs major promotional opportunities in order to garner the necessary sales to keep his career going. While the label pushes the singles (and one need only look at how much Z100 is spinning LLWD to know that Jive is doing their job, at least partially), the management sets up the major performance promotions (on TV shows, awards shows, etc.). 19M is quite capable of making these things happen and they are working beyond overtime on Adam right now. This is where Kris may not have anything but leftovers (if there are any - 19 isn't a never-ending cash well, and they may very well be dry by the time they are done promoting the hell out of the Glam One).

I think you're just really stuck on this conspiracy that he is being shafted in favor of Adam, and there is no hope of changing your mind, to be honest.

I think everyone got your point hellothere. I just chose to laugh at it instead of clutch my pearls.
I posted what I could find that is listed right now. I'm sure his TV appearences will be posted at some point but right now radio promo is the focus.
