Let me clarify... (and, please, if you quote me, you should quote the whole post, not just 5 words) I think many people voted for Kris because they really saw him as the better contestant but others voted for Kris because they didn't approve of Adam's (supposed) lifestyle. I'm not calling anyone names here of course ... I was just generalizing. Sorry if I offended anyone.

I hope that people did NOT vote for either one because of being gay or straight or in-between. I hope they voted for pure talent. My reason for the post was that most of the voters I believe are those same pre-teens 11 -16 and I would have thought that Adam was the more attractive to them, but who knows. I at that age adored David Bowie, Jimmy Page, Ringo Starr and Jimmy Morrison, guys like John Denver were too bland for my taste. I don't think a rock stars life style was something I approved or disappoved of, I either found them hot and interesting and talented or not. Rock stars are suppose to be hot and dangerous that is what sells extra seats at concerts.

Although it was never addressed on the show, Adam is definitely gay. He talked about it during an interview... He's done drag.. the whole bit. I always look forward to the gay contestants.. I was really rooting for Nathaniel.. but oh well. =)

I agree with Beeniesmom. I think a lot of people turned to Kris from Danny. I always wondered why he stayed in the competition so long... He was always the one I forgot about. It was like So and So.. Oh yea and Him. I think he'll end up like Reuben and Taylor... One hit wonders. I seriously LOL-ed at your 'crooked mouth' comment. That was too funny.

Watching all the performances last night, we were like... wow they all made it to the top 13? Some of them are just plain awful... Jorge.. :gag: Adam's always been good.. from the beginning. I definitely think he should have won.. oh well.. We all know he'll get signed to do something, whether its singing or performing.
