	<title>Adam Lambert on Out Magazine Controversy: &quot;Not Every Gay Man Is The Same Gay Man&quot;</title>
	<link>http://showhype.com/article/adam-lambert-on-out-magazine-controversy-not-every-gay/</link>
	<description>&lt;p&gt;  American Idol  runner-up Adam Lambert has finally spoken out on the controversy concerning him and his recent cover on  Out  magazine--well, to be more exact, about the allegations from the magazine&#39;s editor, Aaron Hicklin, that Adam and his management had many conditions surrounding the cover shoot.  To backtrack a bit, Adam was included in the magazine&#39;s Out 100 list, honoring the most successful gay people today. He was named, in fact, as Breakout Honoree of the Year by the magazine. But Hicklin later posted  an open letter on the magazine&#39;s website , complaining that the management had qualms about putting Adam on the cover of the magazine. &quot;Apparently,  Out  was too gay, even for you,&quot; he wrote. He then alleged that Adam&#39;s management would not let the singer do the cover unless a straight woman is included, and that the singer wouldn&#39;t look &quot;too gay&quot;. He also claimed that Adam refused offers from the magazine to appear on its cover while  American Idol  was still underway.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Find more top entertainment news, videos, and blogs on ShowHype: &lt;a href="http://showhype.com/television/"&gt;Television&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://showhype.comhttp://idolblips.showhype.com/american_idol/adam_lambert/"&gt;Adam Lambert&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://showhype.comhttp://idolblips.showhype.com/american_idol/american_idol/"&gt;American Idol&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

  Lambert took to his  Twitter  account on Tuesday to respond to Aaron Hicklin&#39;s tirade. &quot;Dear Aaron, it&#39;s def not that deep. Chill! Guess ya gotta get attention for the magazine,&quot; Lambert wrote. &quot;U too are at the mercy of the marketing machine. ... Until we have a meaningful conversation, perhaps you should refrain from projecting your publication&#39;s agenda onto my career.&quot;

An &quot;American Idol&quot; winner&#39;s debut is always a big deal, and  Kris Allen &#39;s just-released disc was no different. While Allen had a lot of writing freedom on the self-titled debut, not all his ideas made the cut.
    
    
  Fans were especially swayed by the singer&#39;s acoustic performances on &quot;Idol,&quot; and some were disappointed that the album didn&#39;t feature more unplugged songs.
  &quot;I think it was something that we wanted on there, but [it just] didn&#39;t happen. Album number two. Don&#39;t worry,&quot; Allen promised MTV News.
  Allen Nation should stay calm, because fans might see those songs sooner than they&#39;d think. &quot;Maybe I&#39;ll make a little EP, iTunes thing,&quot; he suggested. &quot;It&#39;ll be sick.&quot;
  Speaking of missing acoustic songs, Allen his cut  collaboration with singer/songwriter Mat Kearney , &quot;Top of the World.&quot; &quot;It had like a dance beat to it&amp;nbsp;...&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Find more top entertainment news, videos, and blogs on ShowHype: &lt;a href="http://showhype.com/celebrities/"&gt;Celebrities&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://showhype.comhttp://idolblips.showhype.com/american_idol/kris_allen/"&gt;Kris Allen&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://showhype.comhttp://showhype.com/television/mtv_news/"&gt;MTV News&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://showhype.comhttp://showhype.com/music/mat_kearney/"&gt;Mat Kearney&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://showhype.comhttp://idolblips.showhype.com/american_idol/american_idol/"&gt;American Idol&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://showhype.comhttp://showhype.com/music/lifehouse/"&gt;Lifehouse&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

Reigning American Idol  Kris Allen  stopped by &quot;Good Morning America&quot; Tuesday (November 17) to promote his newly released self-titled debut album and perform the first single from the record.
  Before he kicked off his performance of  &quot;Live Like We&#39;re Dying,&quot;  he spoke with &quot;GMA&quot; host Robin Roberts, who commented on how nice a guy he is. He jokingly responded, &quot;Thank you. I hope that&#39;s a good thing.&quot;
  The two then discussed Allen&#39;s late-night trip to the Empire State Building with his band, from which he got back just hours before his appearance on the show. &quot;We walked from our hotel. It was a 35-, 40-minute walk to the Empire State Building. We got back at, like, one in the morning,&quot; he explained, seeming in good form for someone who didn&#39;t get much sleep. &quot;It was a good trip. It was awesome.

	<title>&#39;American Idol&#39; Winner Kris Allen Made Writing A Priority On His Debut</title>

	<description>&lt;p&gt; &#39;Singing a whole bunch of other people&#39;s songs &amp;#8212; that&#39;s not who I am,&#39; he says of writing or co-writing most of his tracks. By Jim Cantiello

Kris Allen is an &quot;American Idol&quot; of many firsts. He&#39;s the first married &quot;Idol&quot; winner. He&#39;s the first &quot;short&quot; dude (his words) who&#39;s taken home the grand prize. He&#39;s the first champ to leave the dreaded coronation song off his album. And he&#39;s the first &quot;Idol&quot; winner to have a sole writing credit on a track from his or her debut post-&quot;Idol&quot; CD.
  The song &quot;Red Guitar&quot; is already a legend among his fans. The autobiographical ditty was written for his wife long before he became a breakout star on the TV juggernaut. And for Kris, convincing his record label to let him write on  his self-titled major-label debut  &amp;#8212; in stores this very moment &amp;#8212; was a top priority. Lucky for him, the suits were onboard with the idea from the minute Seacrest handed him that silly &quot;Idol&quot; trophy.

	<title>Kris Allen Not Happy With Debut Album&#39;s Version Of &#39;Heartless&#39;</title>
	<link>http://showhype.com/article/kris-allen-not-happy-with-debut-album-s-version-of/</link>
	<description>&lt;p&gt; &#39;The version was a little bit different for me,&#39; the &#39;American Idol&#39; winner admits. By James Montgomery, with reporting by Jim Cantiello

One of the standout moments during  Kris Allen&#39;s  run toward the &quot;American Idol&quot; season 8 crown was his soulful  version of Kanye West&#39;s &quot;Heartless,&quot;  which earned him raves from both the &quot;Idol&quot; judges and his fervent fanbase.
  Of course, immediately following that performance, &quot;Idol&quot; released a studio version of the song on iTunes ... a syrupy, soft jazzy thing that, well, earned Allen anything  but  raves.
    
    
  So, when it came time to record songs for his self-titled debut album &amp;#8212; which hit stores Tuesday (November 17) &amp;#8212; Allen knew he wanted to take another stab at the song. Working with producer Salaam Remi, he crafted a new, sleeker version of &quot;Heartless,&quot; one that recalls the ethereal, slightly ominous soundscapes of Phil Collins&#39; 1981 hit &quot;In the Air Tonight&quot; (for real).
  It was a risk,&amp;nbsp;...&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Find more top entertainment news, videos, and blogs on ShowHype: &lt;a href="http://showhype.com/celebrities/"&gt;Celebrities&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://showhype.comhttp://idolblips.showhype.com/american_idol/kris_allen/"&gt;Kris Allen&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://showhype.comhttp://idolblips.showhype.com/american_idol/american_idol/"&gt;American Idol&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

	<description>&lt;p&gt; Kelly Clarkson may be an American Idol, but Kelly Sharbaugh simply got
idoled.&amp;nbsp; On the last Survivor: Samoa the 25 year old San Diego
hairstylist became the second member of the jury after Russell Hantz
caught her with the old Hidden Immunity Idol trick play. 
 
You had to know Kelly was in trouble when she got several confessionals
earlier in the episode. Despite coming across as a clich?? love &#39;em and
leave &#39;em bad girl Survivor: Samoa&#39;s preseason marketing, Kelly turned
out to be a shrude player.&amp;nbsp; In fact, she was apparently all too good at
holding her tongue for the producer&#39;s taste because they rarely let her
get a word in edgewise.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Find more top entertainment news, videos, and blogs on ShowHype: &lt;a href="http://showhype.com/television/"&gt;Television&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://showhype.comhttp://showhype.com/television/survivor_samoa/"&gt;Survivor: Samoa&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://showhype.comhttp://showhype.com/music/kelly_clarkson/"&gt;Kelly Clarkson&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://showhype.comhttp://idolblips.showhype.com/american_idol/american_idol/"&gt;American Idol&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

	<description>&lt;p&gt; &#39;American Idol&#39; alum is making sure even her pop songs on  Just Like You  have a rock edge. By Eric Ditzian

The 2009 American Idols Live! Tour wrapped up in New Hampshire in mid-September. Right after that last show, fourth-place finisher Allison Iraheta hopped on a plane bound for Sweden and some time in the recording studio with hitmaker Max Martin.
  One of the results was her debut single, &quot;Friday I&#39;ll Be Over U,&quot; an undeniably poppy tune, but one that didn&#39;t exactly conform to the hard-edged rocker image Iraheta displayed during the &quot;Idol&quot; season. While she&#39;s proud of that track, the 17-year-old made clear in an interview with  Yahoo Music  that her musical style is driven not by sugary beats but by rage.
  &quot;For some reason, I love singing angry,&quot; she said. &quot;Not depressing songs, but just real. There&#39;s happiness in the world, but I&#39;m just not the kind of person that&#39;s going to sing happy. I like singing angry.

 Kris Allen ,  Allison Iraheta  and  Adam Lambert  all certainly have very distinct sense of style. So when the trio of &quot;American Idol&quot; stars teamed up for an  Elle  magazine photo shoot, they each got to express their individual sense of fashion. And, yes, that means that Lambert was wearing eyeliner and spikey platforms.
  Lambert appears in the spread all dolled up in a glam suit posing with a microphone. &quot;Accessories were the big thing for Adam,&quot;  Elle  creative director (and &quot;The City&quot; regular) Joe Zee says in his A to Zee column in the December issue.
  &quot;He&#39;s got a classic uniform of nonconformity,&quot; Zee continued about Lambert&#39;s look. &quot;But I wanted the finishing touches to make his look a  look.  Think dangerous: chainmail scarf, link-chain gloves, spiked boots.&quot;

Unless you checked out one of this summer&#39;s ear-piercing &quot;American Idol&quot; tour stops, your chances of seeing finalists Kris Allen, Adam Lambert and Allison Iraheta performing on the same stage together anytime soon are pretty slim.
  But thanks to &quot;Idol&quot; host and Prince of All Media Ryan Seacrest, your dreams could come true one more time. Seacrest launched the  &quot;Ryan, Rock My Town&quot;  contest on Tuesday, promising fans the chance to vote for a show in their hometown by the season-eight trio. Using the Demand It! widget &amp;#8212; which greasepaint rockers Kiss used earlier this year to route their current tour &amp;#8212; Seacrest is promising the city with the most votes a free concert.
  At press time, the list was topped by the usual suspects, with New York, Los Angeles and Chicago leading&amp;nbsp;...&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Find more top entertainment news, videos, and blogs on ShowHype: &lt;a href="http://showhype.com/television/"&gt;Television&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://showhype.comhttp://idolblips.showhype.com/american_idol/adam_lambert/"&gt;Adam Lambert&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://showhype.comhttp://idolblips.showhype.com/american_idol/kris_allen/"&gt;Kris Allen&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://showhype.comhttp://idolblips.showhype.com/american_idol/ryan_seacrest/"&gt;Ryan Seacrest&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://showhype.comhttp://idolblips.showhype.com/american_idol/allison_iraheta/"&gt;Allison Iraheta&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://showhype.comhttp://idolblips.showhype.com/american_idol/american_idol/"&gt;American Idol&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

	<title>Simon Cowell Tops TV Earners With $75 Million</title>
	<link>http://showhype.com/article/simon-cowell-tops-tv-earners-with-75-million/</link>
	<description>&lt;p&gt;    By Forbes   Simon Cowell is more than just the meanest man in prime-time television, he&#39;s also the best paid. 
 In an industry hammered by changing viewer habits and dwindling advertising dollars, the 50-year-old Brit and his Fox juggernaut American Idol continue to score record ratings and big money. Though the singing competition&#39;s viewership has slid in recent years, it still managed to round out last season with an average weekly audience of 27 million, making it the most-watched series in prime time. And like Cowell&#39;s fellow top earners, the host you love to loathe has found several avenues t...&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Find more top entertainment news, videos, and blogs on ShowHype: &lt;a href="http://showhype.com/celebrities/"&gt;Celebrities&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://showhype.comhttp://idolblips.showhype.com/american_idol/simon_cowell/"&gt;Simon Cowell&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://showhype.comhttp://showhype.com/music/britney_spears/"&gt;Britney Spears&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://showhype.comhttp://idolblips.showhype.com/american_idol/american_idol/"&gt;American Idol&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

	<title>Simon Cowell Is Top-Earning Man On Prime-Time TV</title>

You can buy a lot of chest-hair-baring T-shirts with $75 million.   Forbes   magazine estimates that  &quot;American Idol&quot;  judge Simon Cowell pulls down that much loot every year, making him the top-earning man in prime time in the U.S.
  That haul easily put him ahead of the #2 gentleman on the list, &quot;The Apprentice&quot; host Donald Trump ($50 million), not to mention Cowell&#39;s frequent verbal sparring partner, the second-hardest-working-man-in-show- business, &quot;Idol&quot; host Ryan Seacrest, who rounds out the top three at $38 million. The calculations are based on estimated pre-tax earnings from June 1, 2008 to June 1, 2009.
  Like Cowell &amp;#8212; who also has a record label and several other TV hosting gigs and has shepherded the careers of singers like Susan Boyle and Leona Lewis &amp;#8212; many of the men on the list do more&amp;nbsp;...&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Find more top entertainment news, videos, and blogs on ShowHype: &lt;a href="http://showhype.com/celebrities/"&gt;Celebrities&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://showhype.comhttp://idolblips.showhype.com/american_idol/simon_cowell/"&gt;Simon Cowell&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://showhype.comhttp://showhype.com/television/prime_time/"&gt;Prime Time&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://showhype.comhttp://idolblips.showhype.com/american_idol/ryan_seacrest/"&gt;Ryan Seacrest&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://showhype.comhttp://idolblips.showhype.com/american_idol/american_idol/"&gt;American Idol&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://showhype.comhttp://showhype.com/celebrities/donald_trump/"&gt;Donald Trump&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
