There’s been a lot of hoopla over the “racy” performance from American Idol runner-up Adam Lambert at the American Music Awards on Sunday night. For those who don’t know (or don’t care), Lambert kissed another man on stage, as well as pushed a man’s head into his crotch – which eventually led to his appearance on Thursday’s “Good Morning America” to be cancelled. However, CBS’s “The Early Show” was quick to pick him up for their show tomorrow instead. A few questions lies here: did ABC just start up a PR firestorm by canceling Adam Lambert?

So as of Wednesday night, Kris Allen now holds the title of "American Idol" after winning by a large margin according to a source at FOX.  Many expected Adam Lambert to win but in the end, it was Kris who came out on top. When asked why he thought he grabbed the win over Lambert, Allen explained,  "There's not a whole lot of people that approve of the whole guy-liner thing and the nail polish and all that. But for me, I love Adam and I think he's one of the greatest people that I've ever met so far. For me, I'm just a regular guy and I think a lot of people just related to me." Kris owes his success to the support from his wife saying,  "She's been my biggest supporter and since we got together seven years ago, she's always tried to make me work harder at music. She believed in me a lot because there were times when I wanted to give up and she was like. 'No, dont stop, you're really great and you need to keep doing this ...
