Kris Allen on his frustration with Christians who wouldn't accept Adam Lambert.
"There [were all these rumors] about how all the conservative, Christian people that would vote for me hate Adam and never want him to win because of who he is. Oh, it was so frustrating—really bad, because we are really good friends. Why can't everyone get along? It never made any sense for me to judge anyone, who they are. It frustrates me that people can't get along with people because of their differences. And I'll tell you what, especially Christians. Christians have a hard time accepting people like Adam—liberal, from L.A., looks different, maybe acts a certain way. He's a great, great guy. They don't even give him a chance. And it's frustrating because I come from that. A lot of my friends are not that way, which I appreciate, but a lot of people in Arkansas or in the South or wherever are that way. We really hope that our relationship can be an inspiration to people. I could go on about that forever."
If Adam won, those angry Christains would continue their hate and nothing would change but with Kris winning, he has the power to change a lot of people's minds. A lot of kids (Especially girls) go crazy over their favorite muscians and idolize them and American Idol is no exception. Esepcially when the person is hot, the obsess over them and read all their interviews, watch all the videos of them they could find on line. Kris has done countless interviews by now and has always been asked questions about Adam in every interview and always promotes acceptance in every answer.
He's a good role model and lets people know that you can be a Christian and accepting of homosexuals at the same time. It helps that they're hearing it from someone who was a church leader too. Kris winning will do more for us than Adam winning ever could have and it makes no difference on Adam's career whether he won or not.
