Kris Allen’s Music Once Made His Baby Cry – “I’m not gonna say that [The Voice] is better, but it’s so much more entertaining as a show right now. [TV audiences] go for that,” Allen says. “But I think that they lose something in the development of the artist. I think that’s really sad.

That’s what I think is great about Idol, they do try to set you up for success. It doesn’t always happen, but they do the best that they can.” – Read more at ETOnline
