I did hear that Kara was trying to get songs on both Adam and Kris's debut. Please... Kara, you're a jinx... leave these guys alone! I know she's on Jason's new album from last year. Ugh! She's awful.

[quote author=frank board=artistkz thread=85332 post=2196291 time=1243990963 I have complete faith I'll love Kris' album. But whether he sells 20K or 2 million copies, that would have to depend on many other factors, namely promotion, choice of first single etc. I think he'll break 20k ;)

Sources over WB told me that Kris Allen may be featured on a "remix" version of Ashley Tisdale's "What If", co-written by Kara Dioguardi. If that's true, maybe he's be signed by her same management? Ewwww. Wtf? Kara can't just leave the Idols alone huh? Kelly and Carrie are not enough for her? ![:-x](http://images.proboards.com/lipsrsealed.gif)

National Anthem on the guitar! Nice! LOL.
This will be a brand new audience for him. So, that is pretty cool right after Idol.

"American Idol" 2009 winner Kris Allen will sing the national anthem Sunday at Staples Center before Game 2 of the NBA Finals between the Lakers and the Orlando Magic. Allen, an upset winner over San Diego's Adam Lambert, admits he is not a Laker fan from way back or anything. Allen is from Conway, Ark., and he is an all-things-Arkansas fan and he was on hand when USC gave the Razorbacks a good, old-fashioned beating in Arkansas a few years ago. "It was bad," Allen said. He also has no plans to add any extra touches to the anthem so no reprise of the Tyrese Gibson debacle. Tyrese, who sang the anthem at Staples during the Western Conference finals series against Denver, opted to change some lyrics from "our flag was still there," to "our Lakers were still there." This displeased many including our own Bill Plaschke who sent several Twitter messages exclaiming his displeasure.
Allen said he had never sung the anthem in public before and has nothing planned. "I just want to get through it and not make any mistakes," he said today. Allen said he would also love to meet Kobe Bryant.It is becoming a tradition for "Idol" contestants to sing at the Finals. Since 2004, David Cook, Jordin Sparks, Taylor Hicks, Carrie Underwood, Ruben Studdard, Elliot Yamin and Kelly Clarkson have performed. Now if only someone could figure out how to have "Dancing With the Stars" winner Shawn Johnson waltz through the anthem and a reality television crossover event. latimesblogs.latimes.com/sports_blog/2009/06/american-idol-winner-to-sing-national-anthem-for-lakers-sunday.htmlWhat a shame. :( I was awaiting the Kris Allen touch!

He wrote my favorite Kelly song, "Addicted". So, that's good news for me. I'm pretty sure Kara helped set this up.

Has there been confirmation that he is with Jive? Any management news? Whoever his management is should be ashamed of themselves. There is virtually no buzz surrounding this guy, although he is quite talented. Lambert, however, seems to be inescapable, for no good reason. I've said it before but it bears repeating: If those two have the same management, Kris is in trouble, because it seems as if they don't give a rat's ass about promoting him.

Sorry for the large scans: ![](http://i43.tinypic.com/532s8n.jpg) ![](http://i41.tinypic.com/2pq0qi1.jpg) LOL at Kris cringing at the thought of "Brand New Shoes." I love that album! I like hearing him describe his album upcoming album as possibly "soft-rock" & "not just a guy & his guitar." Very interesting! Also according to this, the first recording sessions won't begin until the tour. It's great that he's already writing for it.
