But I have to say, one thing I wrote in my last post is a bunch of b.s., even though I talked myself into it and I meant it when I wrote it. And that's that I'd be cool with Adam winning. He probably will, which is why I tried talking myself into it, I guess, to soften the blow. But it didn't stick. I'm not saying he doesn't "deserve" it, or whatever, I don't know who deserves it. I just want Kris to go all the way and if he doesn't I probably will be very disappointed. No going to lie.
Yeah, I thought about that when I read your post this morning! I have to admit that right now, Kris is truly my favorite and yes, I would also be disappointed if he didn't win. But even when I was hoping for a Kradam finale a few weeks ago, I always pictured Adam winning (but that was before "Heartless", which has definitely become my favorite Kris performance). I guess I would still be OK with Adam winning. Last year, I would have been crushed if Archie had won, no way he deserved it more than Cook. You say you don't know who deserves it, but in my opinion, both are deserving. Also, if Adam wins, I would still marvel at the fact that the guy who was pretty much supposed to be cannon fodder made it to the top 2!
I re-watched the results show and re-watched Simon's reaction to Kris making the finals. It's bizarre.
Take a look. It's like an angry guy trying to look happy. A few seconds later, Simon genuinely smiles, but it takes a while.
Simon sucks, so I'm not trying to figure out what he thinks. He pretty much took credit for Kris going to the finale, saying that he told Kris at the beginning to believe more in himself and that since he did that this week, he made it to the top 2. Whatever Simon.
I agree about some of Adam's fans. I've pretty much stopped reading his thread on TWoP. First, there are too many posts and second, some fans are really getting on my last nerve. I guess they feel threatened by Kris' presence in the top 2. It was easy to hate Gokey and to believe that he would never win against Adam, but Kris is more of a wild-card. He is able to be just as good as Adam and Adam's fans know this. Anyway, that's my take on it.
Some guests for the finale: Cyndi Lauper is supposed to duet with Allison, there are also rumors that Kris will duet with Keith Urban (blah), Santana is going to be there, as well as Jason Mraz. Yay for Jason! I guess I'm half hoping that Kris would duet with Mraz, but that's not the rumor right now.
ETA: Ryan was on Larry King tonight and he apparently said that Adam and Kris had to reprise a song for the finale and not sing a new one. Too bad. I know we'll get Simon Fuller's choice (new song but potentially dangerous) and the coronation song (coronary song as some have dubbed it), but I would've liked to see a new Kris song (and a new Adam song too).
Also, VFTW have chosen Kris to support for next week. Apparently, to stick it to TPTB for their over-pimping of Adam. I don't really care what they do anyway... it just means more votes for Kris in the end!
