To Vicky - how shallow can one get? Talking about you. Talent is beyond a bad case of acne or skin or whatever. IT IS THE PERSONALITY, THE CHARISMA, THE VOICE and that X Factor that makes people notice and take note and talk. People has seen Adam with no make-up like in his initial audition and he looks even BETTER sans makeup. But if he wishes to put eyeliner etc, so be it. He is so many people's IDOL. Get over it. Go look in the mirror yourself. You might get those pock marks also.

I would like to see him tour with KISS, but I don't want him to be their lead singer permanently. I want him as a solo artist

I have no idea why people think Adam is attractive. Has anyone noticed how much pancake makeup he wears & those pock marks on his face. To each his own.

i am shocked that adam lost. it just reinforce that the americans don't know how to appraise performance. the current economy chaos started from america is another example of american incapability.

Adam, personally, you have the best voice. Kiss's music is like the best music for you because you have that kinda voice, but don't make the kinda music where you hear nothing but the background music, cuz that stinks. WE WANT TO HEAR YOUR ORIGINAL SCREAMY ROCK N' ROLL VOICE!!!!! (which kicks butt)

Kia ora from New Zealand, we were totally dumbstruck to see that ADAM came second. He has been the best male singer on Idol ever and will out last the Pretty boy Kris. Because that is all hes good for. ADAM please go on tour with Kiss and come to New Zealand down under.

Gene Simmons is very smart. He knows what a BOOST in ticket sales it would be for him to have Adam with them...

Personaly I think Queen should just have Adam as there new lead singer. That seemed like a natural match.
