Well, there has been a lot of buzz about the winner of American Idol, I would say. Personal, I am happy with the decision. I have always liked Kris and Danny. Not just because they are Christians, but they also are very talented.
One aspect about this decision that excited me the most was Adam's response to a reporter when asked about his sexual preference and how some may tie it to his loss. The reporter asked, essentially, 'what is your response to people who say you lost because you are gay?' Adam's response was refreshing. He said, essentially, 'I don't think I lost because I am gay, I lost because Kris is a better performer.' I appreciate that perspective from anyone. Whether it's sexual preference, religious affiliation, race, etc...keeping yourself grounded and in reality is refreshing.
Adam was a great performer. I don't really know why he didn't win, but I am pleased with the result. Not because Kris is a Christian, but because he was such an underdog for so much of the season. He must have something going for him if he was able to rise to this level out of nearly nowhere.
What do you think?
