Allen wins! Kris Allen Is The American Idol 2009
Crooner Kris Allen won "American Idol" on Wednesday, besting eyeliner-wearing belter Adam Lambert.
Kris Allen may have looked bone tired at the end of his nearly year-long marathon to take the American Idol crown, but he was nothing but chatty when EW spoke with the champeen one-on-one in the post-finale "Winner's Walk." With his mother and wife patiently waiting on a nearby bench, Allen gamely talked about why he's still surprised he's done as well as he has on the show, when he and Adam Lambert learned they would be rocking out with Queen, how he formed his lasting bond with the glam rocker, and which Oscar winners nearly brought him to tears.
Another possible factor in Allen's win: Those who had been voting for Danny Gokey switched their votes to Allen. "After the third one leaves, you wonder where do the votes go from that third contestant," judge Paula Abdul said after the finale, according to the Associated Press.
