Yes to the posse video !! That was awesome :) EPIC, EPIC, EPIC.. and the vimeo videos are fantastic.

I hope the posse keeps posting videos :) That's one reason I was happy about Boyce Avenue being the ones to join them in the Philipines. Boyce Avenue knows how to market themselves through youtube. Hope Kris's camp picked up some pointers.

What's this? Lol?

It's either her channel or his. They're both KA. Which one of them is 24? How did you find that, btw?

That Come Together video was epic! I thank you.

Kris eating the balut...six minutes to pick at it, talk about it, then eat it. I think if I knew him he'd make me a little crazy.

It was re-tweeted by KAAddicts. Why 24? Kris is 24, I think Katy is 23.

At least, he ate it! He seemed to be the only one to eat one. Not that I blame the others, it didn't really look tasty.

I think the Boyce Avenue guy ate his too. He had it in his hand when Kris was picking at it and the article said they both ate it, so he must have decided Kris lived.. why not?

Kris at the airport the other day

LOL. Thanks for the info!

Kris looks so young in that airport picture!

Here goes my motivation to go to bed before midnight tonight. Slezak just tweeted that his interview with David would be up at midnight. Why midnight, Michael!?!?!

Because if you check the user's info, it says, Age: 24. So it must be Kris.

That purplesmile person can seriously shut up now. Not only is she annoying me, but we have better videos now so we no longer owe her anything! *is somewhat annoyed* She keeps posting about the lack of crowd response, which is completely belied by the videos. She must have some axe to grind. (ETA: Just read her latest post -- she's a Jabbawokeez fan. That might explain it.)

Ross don't worry so much. Kris had a great reception - 25,000 people didn't head to the exits as he came on. They were excited and dancing on the stage.. the videos don't lie. Groups could only wish for a response to be as bad as that. The Jabbawockeze are Philipino so it's understandable that they had a really great crowd reception when they came home so to speak.

Yay LLWD!

Did you see the picture of Daughtry with hair? It's funny, I'm not watching anything surroundind the Super Bowl as I hate football, but I saw a picture of Chris with Carrie and I thought: "Dude, so what if you have a receeding hairline (and it's not even that bad), keep the hair!". I've never thought Chris was a good-looking guy but he gained major points with the hair, lol!

Chris with hair was strange. LOL! He looked so different.

I've been listening to a Kuala Lumpor radio station - they're having a Kris Allen Day today prior to the meet and greet at the mall.

It's hilarious. They talked to Kris, I think they might have called and woke him up and they were playing all of his songs from his CD - including Brand New Shoes!!

http://www.hitz.fm/onair/hitzparty/default.asp#

But after they talked to him the only song their equipment will play is LLWD. They've played it like 8 times in a row. It really is the song that won't die. :)

They are also giving out passes and making people answer trivia.. they are even more hardcore fans than we are.

I wasn't worried, SleepinIn. I mean, I know he did. I was just somewhat annoyed with this chick who, for three days, was all, "Kris got a mediocre crowd response." On and on. Because she's apparently a bigger Jabbawockeze fan than a Kris fan, and needed to prove they got more love. I don't know, it just was annoying to read, when the videos speak for themselves.

I know. I never doubted that. :)

I don't care about Jabbawockeze vs. Kris. Talk about apples and oranges. I'm glad they got a great reception. It was that poster vs. Kris that I was aggravated by. lol

I heard LLWD three times on the radio today, in the space of about three hours, I thought. Twice on Kiss108, and once on Mix104.1

Daughtry with hair looks (to me) a little different, not very different. I read a lot of negative comments about it somewhere. I think he looks better.

Oh, yeah...wanted to mention...not to correct you, SleepinIn, but I don't think Jabbawockeez are from the Philippines, because I saw them originally on America's Best Dance Crew.

ETA: I looked them up. We're both right, sort of. One of them was born in the Philippines, but raised in Hawaii. A few of them seem to be of Filipino origin but born in the USA. One is African-American. One is Korean-American.

I kind of remember them being on ABDC - I never really watched it all that consistently but they were at the Much Music Video Awards one year and so I sort of remember them from that. But yes, Philipino roots - that's what I meant. :)

Filipino, Shmilipino, whatever, they're amazing. (Jabbawockeez, that is.)

Here's ten high-quality vids from Manila (all in close-up, sort of...kind of annoying, because...well, you'll see. But the sound is good. Actually I'm watching Alright With Me right now and it's pretty amazing.)

When does Kris play his invite-only show in Malaysia? And when does he play Zirca in Singapore?

Hey, what happened to part 3 of the Yong Chavez interview with Kris? Looks like it's been removed. I didn't see it.

Tomorrow is the show in Kuala Lumpur (well, later today for them) and Feb. 10 for the show in Singapore.

He has about 6 hours til the Malaysian show (the 8th 6 pm -- it's noon there now) -- is Zirca the 10th? (so our 9th)

Man he's going to be tired..

I think this might be a popular thing. Peeps are lining up already.

I see LLWD has been added in a few more Canadian cities since I last checked. I think there was only one Calgary station, before, and I don't think St. John's NL had added it then. Not sure about Halifax or Regina.

Radios That are Living Like They're Dying - Google Maps

Of course, it's playing on a lot of US border stations in the US, so southern Canadians are hearing it if they listen to those stations.
