I know, I know, this week’s Idolatry is late! But better than never, no? And if it makes you feel any better, I don’t think our fearless producer Jason Averett has eaten or slept for 72 hours! (How else to explain the sheer genius of this week’s Value Initiative video…which is required viewing for discerning pop-culture addicts. Seriously, click that link, people!) And also, press play below for plenty of Kris Allen and Adam Lambert, plus BONUS ALLISON, a word of warning for Matt Giraud, and a cameo from Eloise Hawking! Warning: This episode contains new and vigorous Kara Bashing™. Apologies to her fan base, but those "early Aerosmith" references were too much for my cohost Kristen Baldwin and me.

Adam is AMAZING@! He is so talented and has entertained us all season. He has earned the Idol crown. Vote Adam@!
I am also proud of Adam because I work for the VA and while Adam was home he went to Miramar to sing for the troops and their families. He also visited the kids at his high school drama and signing departments and went back to the performing arts center where he started performing. He is truly the most talented and should win American Idol Vote Adam!
Don’t make Slezak dye his hair! Warm up your speed dialing finger(s)!
At last! Hilarious as always.
I haven’t watched AI since Anoop got voted off, but everyone left seem like great kids & talented. Thanks for the interesting commentaries and recaps. You guys are funny!
Awesome job.
… but I’m still hoping for an Adam/Kris finale.
ADAM DESERVES THIS, COME ON PEOPLE. USE MORE THAN ONE PHONE TONIGHT! WE LOVE YOU ADAM!!!!!
These two commentators are remarkably snarky and unprofessional. They clearly have a bias against Kara and one in favor of Kris Allen. That’s fine, but aren’t you supposed to be journalists? Don’t you have any information or insight to impart, beyond your Snotty 8th-Grader Barbs? I’m surprised to find this video on the site of an established publication instead of on an amateur commentary site, like YouTube.
Danny is B O R I N G. This season the judges have manipulated opinion to support their advance choice for the final two. Danny should have gone before Allison. MY choice would have been an Allison/Adam final. I’ll accept a Kris/Adam final. Danny doesn’t deserve the slot in the finals.
Slezak and Baldwin, why aren’t you happy that a mediocre singer like Kris has gone as far as he had? You should be thankful! While you’re at it, keep dialing for him so he can win and make season 8 a big joke. When he beats Adam, you can go kick yourself.
I think you should do Gokey’s interview in a room with bullet proof glass between the two of you and constantly flash the work AWKWARD in the background and show Kristen being held back by bodyguards outside the door! I can NOT wait to see that interview.
Omg…danny is so talentless it makes me sick, has anyone saw the youtube video of him trying to sing Billie Jean? LOL “the wind blew my words away” lolol just wow…

I don’t wanna wait/For Idolatry to be posted/I want to know right now/When will it beee.
Totally delicious Idolatry! But please take out the beeps so I can hear Kristen’s comments about Kara. I’m sure they were perfectly accurate.
I totally want to see Kris blow the roof off the place tonight and then just wait and watch how the judges spin it to him being in trouble. I can already feel it happening.
