Hollywood Gossip: Kris Allen Wins “American Idol” Latest Season 8

It was truly a night to remember as “American Idol” wrapped up Season 8 with a plethora of amazing performances before announcing Kris Allen as the big winner.

And of course when it came time for him to give an acceptance speech, Allen struggled to find words. “Adam deserves this. I’m sorry, I don’t even know what to feel right now. This is crazy!”

It seems Kris’ take on Kanye West’s “Heartless” on last week’s show made all the difference for the 23-year-old business school student. Following his performance Simon Cowell gushed, “I had literally written you out of this competition. That, however, has all changed after that performance.”

The night was chock full of special guests like Black Eyed Peas, Cyndi Lauper, Queen Latifah, Lionel Richie, Carlos Santana, Rod Stewart, and KISS.
