Must List Live!: 'True Blood' and Kris Allen, together at last!

This week on Must List Live!, we dish on last night’s delicious True Blood season premiere as I lay out for Jessica Shaw the three important (in my mind) things she needs to know to get into HBO’s juicy vampire drama. But that’s just to start things off. We also have American Idol winner Kris Allen stopping by to tell us all about what’s on his Must List. Now, seeing True Blood and Kris Allen together in one show would be enough for most, but not us! Because we’re freakin’ insane like that! The clearly Emerilphobic Jessica and I also break down the lameness of Jon & Kate’s 100th episode, share thoughts on Top Chef Masters, and conclude our Comic-Con giveaway by announcing the lucky winner of the big prize package. So if you’re a fan of True Blood, American Idol, or watching a depressed Gosselin crush garlic, then sink your teeth into the video below!

    Thanks for bringing Kris and True Blood together LOL!!! Agrees w/Kris on KOL album XD

  • JS4P

    I’m with Jessica Simpson. Team Edward all the way. Top Chef Masters if fun, but not trainwrecky fun. And yeah, number one to do on Kris Allen’s list? Adam Lambert. tee hee.

  • Kate

    LMFAO. ADAM LAMBERT

    KOL!! This is why Kris Allen rocks. And I just had to check out A Long Way Gone. Non-fiction about a child-soldier from Sierra Leone. Wow. I don’t think I’ve heard of any Idol winner who is into such heavy reading material. I am blown away. My respect for him grows evermore.

  • AC

    Ahh! More Kris Allen please!

  • Chris

    Not watching Trueblood because of *potential* loyalty to Twilight? Thats like skipping the NBA because the Harlem Globetrotters are guest-starring on Scooby Doo. Not to mention Million Dollar Password (..?! Hope that was a joke).

  • Emily

    “True Blood” is a mature version of “Twilight.” Both are intriguing but I enjoyed “Twilight” more as a book. Speaking of books, Kris Allen’s choice is a very inspiring one. He is truly a refreshing artist. I will definitely buy his CD.

  • Pete

    I’m on board the True Blood train, Jessica you’re missing out, this show is really well done!! I’m sorry I don’t know WTF Kris Allen was talking about. All I could hear was a soft spoken mumble for about 10 seconds. LMAO! He looked happy though.

  • Lori

    Kris Allen is so cute and cool.

  • me

    @Emily: TWilight is a watered-down, G-rated, Lame version of the Sookie Stackhouse series. the author of those twilight books just copied what other authors had already done and done better. But I’m sooo EXCITED that True Blood is back and I love Kris Allen. I can’t wait to hear his album!!

  • lori

    comparing true blood to team Edward??thats just wrong.. sorry the Cullen boy is not a respectable vampire unless u r under the age of 10.and Kris what is he the new Oprah we need to run out and get what ever come out of his mouth?? not likely. and where is his magazine cover??oh yea he’s not on one.and please take the Gosslings off the air and put them out of my misery.

  • Aiden

    Fan of True Blood and American Idol, here.
    And that just made my day.
    Thank you.

  • HE SHOULD

    Kris just say you think about being gay,the covers will come.No wait till your record sells then do all your covers then.

  • Julie E.

    I can’t wait to watch/listen to this . . . I love Kris Allen AND True Blood . . . too bad I’m at work. I guess this gives me something to look forward to later.

  • nacho mama

    Lafayette lives! True Blood for the unknowing–1 part vamp, 1 part tramp, 2 parts camp, now stir. BTW, the soundtrack is awesome.

  • Natalie M.

    WTF @ Jessica.. are you serious you’re committing to team Edward and swearing off True Blood? I’m willing to bet my first born that you’d drop team Edward any day if you got into the show. Charlaine Harris and Alan Ball are a match made in sexual vampiric kickass heaven. Dalton is a smart cookie.. listen to the man!

  • Michelle

    Woohoo, Kris! And yeah, True Blood >>>> Twilight, ugh, is this even a real question?

  • Samantha

    Please more of Kris Allen!!!!

  • heather

    I love Kris Allen! More please!

  • Yss

    True Blood and Twilight are sooo diferent, you don’t have to choose one or the other, read them and watch them both! and Kris is a Must Love! so cute and cool…

  • Lula

    More Kris!!!! Love him!

  • MK

    Kris Allen…talented, adorable and cultured. Love him.

  • mags

    Aww, Dalton and Jessica, you’re so sly, putting Kris at the very end and for just a few seconds. You know we want more–please invite Kris back when he’s in NY for the AI tour. I’d love to hear more about his favorite movies or TV shows. Or more about his favorite books. I just want to hear more about what makes him tick!

  • wanda

    LOVE kris allen and his taste in music and books ( a long way gone was my recent pick for a book club). any twilight fan would enjoy true blood…its more campy, sexy, violent & the scenes btw bill and sookie are too fking hot for words. last nite? wow

  • Lori

    Kris Allen is very cool and has good taste.

  • Jackie

    Kris Allen=the best. Thanks for that little outtake from the idolatry interview! ;-)

  • Harry

    Kris Allen is a great role model of taste and humbleness. He also has great taste.

  • CA

    What the heck?!?! It just keeps playing the Conan O’Brian commercial over & over again… it never gets to the video.

  • Julie E.

    Well, thanks for that little bit of Kris Allen. He is seriously adorable. His AI tracks are all can I listen to these days; can’t wait for his CD. More Kris please!

  • sammy

    Everyone’s jumping on the kings of leon CD…it seems to be the “pat” answer for everyone to give on their “what are you listening to” list however, it’s not selling so what gives? also, Kris is adorable but he needs to learn to speak up.
    True Blood is AWESOME!
