Actually, I do wish Kris a VERY HAPPY BIRTHDAY! He is SUCH a great guy, and definitely a WINNER! But I will say that I was a Taylor fan in Season 5, and he's a great guy too! And not only that, but neither one of these guys are my #1 Idol - but I am SO sick & tired of the pot-shots made at Taylor, who doesn't deserve ANY of it - all because TPTB started takin pot-shots at him early-on and it's NEVER ENDED! Why in the world would the writer of this article see the NEED to mention Taylor here!!! Why mess up Kris' Birthday by taking yet ANOTHER shot at Taylor! It just makes me ANGRY! It's DUMB! And you other commenters, I understand that this is NOT about Taylor - it's about Kris - so why doesn't this article leave Taylor OUT OF IT! Sheesh! Is your name really "Hilton Hater?"

I am a Kris fan, but I agree with others who say that 'leave Taylor out of this'. Taylor did good on his own and this is about Kris's birthday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY KRIS! His fans put together a great campaign to help out people with the ALRIGHTWITHMEMOO campaign for Heifer International.

Taylor will be around the music scene long after most of the others are gone because he is not a one trick pony. Ya, ok if you say so Truthiness lol

Happy Birthday Kris. You are an amazing performer and person. Kris Allen is doing very well with his first single "Live Like Were Dying" which went platinum and sold 1.5m copies. His second single "The Truth" is a beautiful song and moving up the charts!

Happy Birthday, Kris Allen. I'm a fan of his music and of him as a person. Respect is right and he deserves it for all he's done and continues to do.
