OK so I finally got round to watching the finale and I have to say I am GUTTED I didn't watch the show last year. I would have got to enjoy a Cookie victory...
Hubby came home really late so I had to rewind the show for him. He was seriously impressed with Cookie too- deemed him possibly better than Adam but in his words 'I'm too depressed that Adam lost to enjoy Cook's performance properly'. imageimageimage

We then had a bitch about Mrs Allen's unfortunate dress (someone should have styled that poor woman better, that dress was AWFUL on her) and he then had a long monologue about how ridiculous it was that Adam didn't win.
Enjoyed the Cyndi Lauper performance (she rules!) as well as Kiss, although I guess the kids wouldn't have got it. They probably thought Kiss were Marilyn Manson impersonators or something. Adam is gay so he must be a Satanist too.

All in all I really enjoyed the show (apart from the Gokey interludes which were duly FFed) the group songs were fun, and the atmosphere was great.

Last word- I thought it was very telling that at the end after Kris was announced the winner the first thing Seacrest did was to call Adam back on the stage.... image Mmmmm...
