Kris Allen was originally scheduled to perform “Heartless” on the Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien Wednesday night, but a death in his family took him back to Arkansas instead. His Jive label-mate, Allison Iraheta performed in his place, and her rendition of Heart’s “Barracuda” rocked the house, baby.
The Idols–including Kris–will be performing in concert at the Staple Center in Los Angeles Thursday night.
