American Idol finale live on FOX8

Aussie viewers can catch Adam Lambert (or Kris Allen) crowned American Idol 2009 live on Thursday morning.

idoltop2Well it’s bound to go to Adam Lambert, but still this is good news….

FOX8 will screen the final of American Idol live this Thursday, May 21 at 10.00am AEST, on FOX8.

The two-hour finale special will see either Adam Lambert and Kris Allen, crowned the 2009 winner.

The flamboyant Lambert has been a hot favourite virtually since the finals began, but no doubt the show will find a way to build the drama and prop up Kris Allen.

  1. Kris for Idol!!

    He has an amazing voice, and i’d definitely buy his album. And if he doesn’t win, he should still release an album 🙂

  2. LOL @ Seacrest Out. And I reckon some people may balk at this, but I reckon Lambert has one of the best voices I have ever heard. His covers of “Mad World” and “Whole Lotta Love” are great for different reasons. I’d buy his album!

  3. I’ve loved Adam from the beginning, my favorite performance of his was “Ring of Fire.” I thought it was amazing, even thought he judges thought it was “weird.” I’d never heard the song before then, so I think my view was less biased.

    I also really like Kris. It took me a while to actually notice him, but now that I have, I can’t get enough and when he sang, “She works hard for the money” he gave the song a brand new meaning and I really felt appreciated for the work I do as a women.

    Even though I do love the final two, I must say, I really wanted Allison to be in the final 2. She has an amazing voice and I really hope she makes it in the music industry soon.

  4. Well… thank god Gokey is not in the finals. Lambert is my favorite for this year’s American Idol title winner. But Kris Allen is talented and sure to throw some surprises in the finals.

  5. I only ever watch this show at the start to see the freaks at the initial audition stage and have never watched a full season of the USA or local version, but Adam has had me watching every episode of this season. He’s incredible.

    Good on Foxtel for the live show too and I was expecting it though as they have done this with other shows (like the Rockstar one) in the past.
    Having said that, I’ll be recording it and watching it a bit later as I can’t stand the padding out that the final will no doubt have.

  6. I clapped when Danny Gokey left. He was so up himself, he thought he was perfect and objected the few times he was criticised by the judges. This household’s rapt with a Lambert/Allen finale, but would have loved a Lambert/Alison finale.

  7. I personally would have loved a Lambert vs Gokey final. However, Kris has done well to hang in there

    Craig is on the money. Adam is probably the best singer and performer I have ever seen on these shows. He belts songs out and makes it look easy. He is so worthy of being crowned American Idol. Cannot wait to hear what he comes out with in future. A name to watch for sure

    I also applaud Foxtel for the Live broadcast. Would be good to see SBS do the same with Eurovision as it is getting more and more difficult to avoid knowing the winner ahead of time. Also it is a weekend and screening it live means people are at home anyway.

  8. I’m a big Adam Lambert fan, he is hugely talented. His version of ‘Mad World’ was amazing. I actually hope he doesn’t win, I’d hate to see him locked into a contract where he had very limited input into the album he releases. He’s probably the only American Idol contestant I’ve seen that I would actually pay to go and see or purchase his album.
    I’m still surprised it didn’t end up a Danny Gokey / Adam Lambert final. I thought the ‘christian’ vote would have kept Danny in. I made the mistake of reading a couple of forums on the A. I website, and some of the ‘anti gay’ hatred towards Adam was quite shocking.
    Looking forward to a good final 🙂

  9. Love Adam Lambert..I never join the “I love (such and such)” Facebook groups, but I have with Adam, he is the best performer ive ever seen on one of these shows, he makes me go weak at the knees…my only concern is that hes maybe a little to flamboyant for middle america, whereas Kirs is more your “All American” type of guy that may endear himself the audience more…oh, did I mention I love adam.
