Dallas-based AT&T may have swayed “American Idol” voting in favor of eventual winner Kris Allen last week by providing tutorials on “power-texting” at two parties organized by Allen’s fans in Arkansas, according to The New York Times. This development likely will fuel the so-called conspiracy theory which holds that runner-up Adam Lambert (shown tonguing a guy) lost because he’s gay. And so far, 53 percent of Dallas Voice Web poll respondents say they already subscribe to this theory.
Kris himself knows that he didn`t deserve to win, only in Americe the best and most talented will be robbed of th evictory. Adam is amazing and he is already World Idol.
Congratulations, America!!! Just like Florida stole the presidency from Al Gore, Arkansas stole the title from Adam Lambert. AT&T not only helped voters in Arkansas power text but distributed phones already set up for free. One poster from arkansas absolutely confirmed that there’s no way Adam could win with what was going on in Arkansas that Tuesday night. Krisallenation site confirmed this as well where they were congratulating themselves for outsmarting the system.
How can Arkansas, with a population of only 2.8 million cast 38 million votes? Well, if AT&T can help 1 person in Arkansas put in 45,000 votes, then anything is possible. Not only that. AT&T also helped voters in Arkansas votes in different time zones. Means, votes placed from Arkansas could easily top more than 50 million but distributed as coming from other states. It’s so sad that this smeared The AI Kris Allen who he himself admits it’s Adam who deserves to be The American Idol. But never mind. Adam is The WORLD’S Idol. If only international fans could vote, there’s no doubt ADAM wins by a landslide.
It’s better that Adam ends up as runner up than be a questionable winner all your life. it’s a pity it had to happen to Kris.
I find it absurb when people say Adam Lambert “is the world idol”, because, there are still americans who when asked, says that they do not know about Mr. Lambert’s existence at all.
And I also hate it when the AI subject is brought on and they always say how Lambert lost because of his sexual orientation.
-coughs- excuses excuses
Ok Adam Lambert is Gay, so what? I’m Straight dont get me wrong but if america would look at talent not if someone gay or not then Adam would have won. I mean have you heard adam sing no Boundries? Kris Allen’s no boundries song is no comparison to adams verzon. So Adam is Gay yes i know but he dezerved to win. So i hate you at and t that is y i have verizion.
It’s like playing the race card. Except now it’s the sexual orientation card. I’m sure some people voted against him because he is gay, but not enough to actually sway the amount of votes drasticly in Kris’s favor. Kris won because he really deserved it. They are both extreamly talented, but maybe just a tad bit more people liked Kris’s sound better. This is not nessicarily just because Adam is gay.
There you have it, the truth. Now, stop making a big fuss over nothing. Whoever won, won. Accept that.

I myself did not think that Adam Lambert was gay.I did the tonguing picture but I just did’nt believe it.I do not think it was far for Adam Lambert to loose just because he is gay.The competision is based on the way you sing not your sexuality.Kris and Adam are two talented singers and I have nothing against Kris because I am glad he won but it just wasnt fair to Adam becuase he is one talented singer and I do believe that he worked hard at ir.
ewwwwwww.adam has always been giving me the creeps.the hair,the clothes,the facial expressions, and now this. theres no doubt he lost a fair number of vote,just look how kris’s girlfans rised and adam’s dropped on tv, you cant count but thats the way i thought.anw,i like kris’s no boundaries better,easier to listen to.
P.S:kara just makes me sick. look at the way she tries to grab attention:sing,fighting paula,simon, and now wearing a bikini on stage?she’s a judge! and when she said its for charity,do you really believe her? just look at david cook’s face in the liveshow,he’s tired of her like everybody was
Well, American Idol is WAY overrated. Both the Kris guy and the Adam guy are going to be all “famous” and then either stay or die out. I just wish they’d do away with the annoying show altogether.
So what !!!
Oh thats right he lives in America!!
Guess what??? The rest of the world does not care!!!
oh no…………………oh my gosh i dont think so that adam lambert is a gay………… is so bad……….
Maybe Kris won in retaliation to that despicable judge Simon Cowell’s incessant push toward Lambert to win it all.
Maybe Adam lost because the majority of people just dont think a guy should be wearing makeup and nail polish, and wanted an American Idol who portrayed a look that Americans relate to.
Or maybe, just maybe, (as in my case) electromagnet intergalactic radio waves caused a “Vote for Kris reaction”.
But really, who gives a F**K?
First off I want to just say stop complaining about Bush. Gore is an idiot. Second I am glad this bonehead lost. He is annoying and stupid. Stop making yourselfs look ignorant
So, it doesnt matter if he is gay, clay aiken gay and hes famous Adam Lambert is so hot and shoulda 1 american idol.
I voted for Chris because I liked his singing over Adam’s screaming. Didn’t matter who was gay or straight, black or white, male or female, blonde or brunette, blue eyes or brown eyes, married or single. It was about talent and taste.
i’ve been friends with him way befor american idol or any of that and adam is bi-sexual… and i think it shouldent matter i think he should of won american idol all the way to the top that boy has so much talent he is a true sweetheart,he is a great friend,and if i know anyone that can sing its got to be adam… american idol was suposed to be about talent and taste in music not focusing on who is gay,bi,streight,lesbo or what not … but my vote goes to adam no matter what he does in life he has friends and many fans to follow beside him to the end.
-brittany
it’s doesn’t matter he was gay…
he is talented…his voice amazing….
i like adam lambert a lot no matter what…
go ADAM go….always gonna be ur no.1 fan…^^
Adam already had people offering him contracts before American Idol, Kris didnt. Adam isnt the “world idol” some people in America dont even know who he is. Its not because hes gay that he lost. Does it really matter which orientation you are?
I’m straight, but I believe that if your are gay, and found the one you love then thats all that matters. And I do not judge people that choose to live their lives that way.
But most people, that are gay, or believe in gay marriage, are mad because the homosexual contestant did not win, and the straight one did. Most, not all, based it on sexuality not singing abilities.
So what if he’s gay?? Kris won because more Americans thought he could sing better than Adam!
hahaha. that’s funny. america is america. if him being gay swayed votes, then it should just show that most of america dont’ support people who are gay. like it or not that may just be the case. hollywood wants everyone to believe that america is fully in support of the gays, but when it comes down to america, it’s never the case. not even in california could they get gay marriage leagalized. america isn’t ready for everything gay. just deal with it.
if it had nothing do with him being gay then it just shows that kris was better.
this is soooooooooooo noy true…. he does’nt deserve to be treated like this (adam doesn’t)
-stormi
I dont give a crap that Adams gay. He still has one of the best voices there is. God people these days just dont seem to get it. Who gives a crap if your straight or gay if u got talent it doesnt even matter. more people should look at it that way then as o im not voting for him or her because there gay. thats downright stupid. Adam so deserevedd to win. Amercia needs to suck it up and get smart. Talent isnt something that everybody has and when ppl have it support them. i personaly think that adam deserved to win. Everyone has there own opinions but seriously not liking someone because there gay is stupid and wrong. im not saying that because im gay which im not but im sying it because its true. Everyone is equal and should be treated like one. I hope i got my point across.

Ok, Adam Lambert is gay…so what! I mean im straight but i think that everyone should have the same rights. it gets me so frusterated that people judge others. he and kris both diserved to win but for adam to loose because hes gay is HORIBBLE~
ok…i dont care wat yall think…this is bullshiz….that pic is soooooooooooo photoshoped…..and so wat if adam lambert is gay…….he is hot i voted for him because i didnt like the way kris sang…and adam is way better with vocols than anyone was….so wat if he is gay….it doesnt change anything about his singing…
Adam shouldn’t have gotten second place, but at least he gets the contract! Support his CD then!
What’s annoying is that I live in Arkansas! It really is smack-dab in the Bible Belt. Talent should have won through, but at least Adam isn’t restricted with his work. Hope to see him in the future.
Zack learn how to spell first of all..second of all Kris Allen won and there’s no turning back on that..he won because he deserved it!
so what if Adam Lambert is gay?? So what if Kris Allen won, because believe it or not, American Idol Season 8 has officially finished! So why keep on talking about the ‘excuses’ and get on with it. He is still famous, he is still releasing an album, just because he didnt win a talent competition but everyone, well most people, know that he is talented. So just leave them all alone there’s gonna be a new season of American Idol anyways, so who cares?
i hate adam it’s not because he’s gay but i just don’t like him GO KRIS ALLEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i hate adam not because he’s gay but because i just don’t like him GO KRIS ALLEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m sorry, but that is hot. >///<
wtf??? soooooooooo frigging what????????????? he is gay get over it with an aspirin.
i HATE IT WHEN PEOPLEJUDGE OTHERS BECAUSE THIER GSY OR BI! they are stillhuman and some people believe in different things and that should change how you treat them! hes gay so what? getover it what of u were the only straight one in the world and peopelmade funof you? would u like that? i DONT THINK SO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>:(GRRRRRR
hey well i don’t know if this relates to Michael Jackson, i mean he was pretty much gay and um he sold the most albums in the world on “thriller”..i just don’t get why he lost because he was gay..everybody loved michael jackson but nooo not mr. landbert..im sick of it. haha america your ready for a black president but not a gay idol. what a confusing place=/
ok breanna, being black and being gay are differnet!!!!! gay people want attention and are confused, there is no gene, if not saying we should isolate them and make mean jokes about them on the contrary being nice to them may help in the confusion, i have a gay guy friend, but in the end the being gay is their fault and its uncool and a total waste of a HAWT guy. Black people are people the are awesome and as good as everyone else, the cant help being black and why should they, they are perfect the way they are, they are the same as white people with a different colour, everyone it chocolatte theres dark light milk and white and other kinds but in the end bblack and white it dont matter, on the other hand gay or not gay does, gay people are different and thats just a fact
adam is my idol i dont no who he is but my favor of them is how to sing take care adam
Adam has talent yes, but he wouldn’t have got to use it in the way he wanted. American Idol has certain rules on their contracts. He’ll get the same publicity and recognition Kris will, maybe more. I mean look at Chris Daughtry. He started his own band and is doing better than that year’s American Idol. He’ll do fine, gay or not, he’s still hot!
I CANT BELIEVE ADAM LAMBERT DIDNT WIN!! HE HAD THE MOST TALENTED VOICETAHT I HAVE EVER SEEN!!! HE WAS THE BEST OF EVER. I HAVE VOTED HIM AND WHEN I SAW TAHT HE DIDNT WIN I ALMOST GET CRAZY. HE DIDNT WIN JUST BECAUSE HE IS GAY????????????
ARE YOU CRAZY AMERICA????? ARE YOU F……….. CRAZY
ADAM LAMBERT 4EVER
people adam should have won. All of america was waiting for it until the god forsaken poperotsi came itno his lime lite and stole the ground under him until he fell all the way to the bottom. We al wanted him to win but america is sooo againt gays,and bi’s that no one wanted to have him anymore. Let me tell you all who did that. I am very ashamed. I am bisexual and proud to be.
@Brenda
And isn’t it amazing that most of these gay haters know all the words to “Bohemian Rapsody” by Queen sung by Freddy Mercury who is now dead from AIDS…
And the song was so popular that even P!NK sang it at her Dallas Concert last month. (well, then again she also sang Dear Mr. President butt…)
Maybe the best way to force change on this is simple.. GO TO THE SOURCE of the hate and vanquish it..
Tell the bible thumping hate mongering religious freaks that we’re mad as hell and we’re not gonna take it anymore. They want to call us sinners? Fine, so get some picket signs and stand out at RED LOBSTER and tell those f@#ckers they’re going to hell cuz the Bible says eating Shrimp and other Shell Fish is an abomination. See what they have to say..
Don’t believe me? Do you homework and look it up.. Yeah the word is “abomination” The same word used when mankind sleeps with mankind. The same shit they preach is the stuff they’re all going to hell for too! But it would seem that THEY quietly left that part out of their sermons huh?
They also forgot to mention that “judgement is a sin” to their congregation too huh?
SIMPLE SOLUTION PEOPLE…. ALL YA GOTTA DO IS “GO TO THE SOURCE” AND BANISH/VANQUISH THE ASSHOLE BEHAVIOR AS IT’S BEING TAUGHT.
All the hate mongering, gun toting, criminals that appear here in Dallas? What do you think they all went to “crime school’ ?? Or do you think they learned it from the people who raised them, from the people they called ‘friend’ and formed a warped sense of respect for?
Cyndi Lauper maybe have said “Don’t Hate the Hatters” at her True Colors concert, but I don’t hate them.. Instead, I hate their parents and their families for the ugly seed they planted and grew in our society and it’s time we all started to invest in a little weed killer to clean this shit up.
Show up at these churches and ask the preachers how many of the shrimp eaters are going to hell for the abomination of their dining choice? Remember, the good book can also be used like a double edged sword that cuts both ways…
Figure out a way to sue these people for defamation injustice and you’ll see that crap change fast.
I think the most hysterical thing over this Adam Lambert issue is since he lost to the other guy who was supposedly so much better than he was, where is this “other guy” now.. ??? Is he just a washed up has-been? Did he make it to the billboard charts? Maybe we should send notes to American Idol to answer this for us. Or maybe they can ask the idiots who did all the voting..
Ohhhh and maybe they might learn that the voting was hacked by a computer geek and it really wan’t the American Public after all. Shock Me!!
I think KRIS ALLEN is the best…..i Like his verson of ‘ NO boundry” easy and simple….THUMPS UP FOR KRIS>>>>> the 2009 AMERICAN IDOL….i wish i have the opportunity to vote….
jer hi is gay bot that dossent give them rait to kridisise hem for that i am gay to so i on adems side
GO ADAM!!!!!!!
I don’t think its fair that people are judging Adam and saying he deserved to be Runner because of his sexuality and i agree that Kris knows he didn’t deserve to win, that Adam should have, i also agree that it is like pulling the race card on somebody just with sexuality. For the record i’m straight i just don’t like when people judge other people.
This photo was first posted on May 27th. Lots of changes since then.
Bottom line, I’m done with AT&T and them charging me $136 a month for my iPhone and have moved to ANDROID on Sprint for $69.00 with the same features.
Does the term ‘captive audience’ mean anything?? If you want an iPhone then you will use AT&T… TSK TSK… but if you want ANDROID OS you are still allowed to make choices…
Last time I checked,, this isn’t the United States of Apple… or the United States of AT&T
Nope…. I’ll settle for United States of ANDROID instead…
ummm, just for the people that think that being gay, bi or a lezbo is like wrong, i would say those people would be wrong becuz its the way people are and you cant change that becuz its not you and its not ur problem. not that it even is a problem. for all u haterz bout these kind of people u can take it up with me becuz think u people r sick and discusting for judging some1 on tht and you dont even kno that well. so people that judge can just shut ur mouths and leave him and people like him the hell alone.
I LOVE HIM…HIS NEW ALBUM IS GREAT!!
@Kiwi, and any other dipshits out there.
It’s sad that you are so delusional, that even with proof you do not believe the obvious. You cannot argue with science or proof, and the only ones who do are over-religous retards, or homophobic bastards.
You really need help, you rednecks. Adam’s voice tops any other singer out there today, and if you are really so mentally retarded that you can’t see this, you shouldn’t be on the internet, you should be getting councilling.
OK so he is gay. but still you have to say Adam Lambert isn’t exactly well… that great. No I’m not saying this because he’s gay no, i’m saying this is because there are a whole bunch of better people then Adam Lambert. Now we should face it that there are a whole bunch of other singers that are better then him. Everybody who likes him is just on his side because he lost. so what? Everybody loses. Katy Perry wrote a song about being gay and LadyGaga is gay. Well she is straight too, but you get that too. We don’t freakin pity them because people hate them, no we don’t pity them at all! There will always be haters, because everyone has a different opnion, so stop trying to change peoples thoughts! Kris won because he deserved it Ok! So just because he lost dosen’t mean we have to hate Kris Allen for it!!! Geez.
he may be gay, but i bet this picture is fake. reason why….. look at any picture of Adam, you’ll notice his hair is never combed over to the right, NEVER. iv’e looked at hundered’s of pictures and not one shows his hair like that.
i think the artist is homme (good or bad); because all the people have a sexual orientation ( straight, gay, bisx , lis,bisx,…..) on arts,i feel somthing special , for me i like adam lampart the singer of angel……we love you……..
hello adami like you so muchbecouseyou have nice voice but i dont wan t you to be gay im nourddine from moroc takemy email real_young@live.fr
Adam Lambert is such an amazing singer. Everyone i know makes fun of his voice, but it is damn amazing. He is gay, yes we all know that, but who cares. That is hislife. Being gay shouldn’t make you think different about him. leave the poor guy alone. Yes, some of his stunts at different performances were crazy, but thats who he is. If you have a problem with it than stop listening to him. The more you talk crap, it just makes you sound like you are obsessed. GGGGGGGGGGGOOOOOOOOOO Adam Lambert. I only wish you wern’t gay, because you are soo hot!!!
This is like being racist except it involves gayness.who cares if hes gay hes a very HOT! talented singer that shouldent have effected his chances of winning just bcuz hes ….. I mean like seriously wat if u were something that mabe other people didnt like would u want 2 be jugded and hated if u were …anyway its ok Adam your still da BEST singer with great hair I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!

It’s truly bias if Adam got the 2nd place just because he’s gay!!! It’s a talent competition… not status competition….
And yes, he’s gay. He publicly announced it in Rolling Stone..
https://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20284065,00.html
But, Adam, lots of people still love you eventhough you are gay. A gay is still a human.
Cheers
just listen to adam’s no boundaries…
OMG!!!!! ^^ and after almost a year, i still dont get it, why he lost it
no matter what, i’ll stay behind him, support on evrything he’ll do
P/S:guys, i’m not from America and believe me, he’s fans r over the world, beyond his own imagination
either way
look where adam is now compared to kris, really the whole world already love adam

me and all my friends love him
for his new style of music
but he is actually such a better singer
and besides i havent heard of chris til i googled adam and found this
so yeah bye kris good luck its not your fault they cheated for you(or is it?)
but yeah
Team adam all the way :D:)
Adam Lambert est gay ! Il fait se qu’il veux, c’est quand même sa vie. C’est comme une religion c’est pas vous qui décider. Je c’est qu’il est beau est que sa déçois beaucoup les fille, car oui il est beau … Mais voila c’est pas une catastrophe. En même temps vous vous attendiez à quoi. Les plus beau mec son presque tous homo sexuel. Mais c’est leur vie sa vous empêche pas de continuer a dire qu’il est beau et autre.
guys when it comes down to it ITS AMERICAN IDOL! what is the point in arguing incessantly about something that happened a year ago? jeeze everyone Kris Allen won give it a rest
I can listen to Adam Lambert’s singing over and over and over… never have I been tired of listening… wish he could make a record with all the songs he sang in American Idol Season 8… that will be a record hit… He has the “VOICE”!
lol i think gay guys are just so adorable!!! lol they are SO cute together. maybe thats just my twisted way of looking at two gay guys making out, but i sorta like it…. lol
this looks like adam lambert and robert pattinson (twilight) kissing each other *hahaha*
Just love Adam’s song What Do You Want From Me. I even made it as my ringtone… 🙂
O MY GOD WAT THE FUCK! HES GAY! HES SO HOT! BUT HES GAY HES NOT SO HOT ANYMORE
he should team up with Brandon Hilton
