'American Idol' Champ Dines with Loser

Just because several million more people like one over the other, it doesn't mean "American Idol" champ Kris Allen and runner-up Adam Lambert can't enjoy a meal together.

Kris Allen, Adam Lambert

After appearing on "Larry King Live" together, the pair hit up a local Poquito Mas with some friends.

So, who picks up the tab -- the guy Simon wanted to win or the guy America wanted to win?

16. Adam is most definitely not a "loser". I expect better than this from you TMZ.

17. Look at the picture of Kris lingering behind, he doesn't want to be seen with the flamboyant loser! Put your money on Adam to have a stellar career on Broadway where he can swish and prance and mince his way on stage to his pink heart's delight. This guy, I mean girl Adam is nothing more than a 2009 Liberace. Flaming!

19. Form some of these comments making fun of his sexual orientation, its sad that a guys sexual orientation has an effect on whether people will vote for him or not. Anyway, the jokes aren't even funny. The gag is that he sleeps with guys. Clever.

21. I watched LKL last night and I thought it was quite bizarre the way no one in that whole show seems to get Kris Allen-- even now. They keep talking about what a nice guy he is. And he is. But the idea that he didn't work his ass off to win is belied by his performances every week. He obviously worked REALLY HARD and put a lot of thought into the arrangements. He is by nature a low key guy but that doesn't in any way mean that he didn't double down and try really hard to win. I have no doubt that he means what he says when he congratulates Adam for being talented, or says that he believed Adam also deserved to win. But what I don't really care for is the way Adam tried to dominate the interview last night, jumping in over Kris' answers, etc. I don't think there is anything Adam can do to shake Kris up though, and I am willing to be that over the long haul Kris Allen will be a force to be reckoned with in music. At some point people in the industry will catch up to the idea that the "nice guy" also happens to be a very focused artist and a tenacious worker.

22. I agree with Tom Tobin. It is heartwarming to see two men from such different points of view show respect for each other. The world would be a better place if more of us could be tolerant of others and value their opinions. We can still be true to ourselves, it's just a matter of respecting other human beings. I think Adam and Kris are classy guys.

23. Other than speculation because of the way he dresses and the nail polish, why are some saying Adam is gay?
Also, I don't read these type of postings much, but do notice that most are mean spirited.

26. Chris WHO!!!!

Adam is so much more cut out for the role of a super star, love him or hate him, he's going to be around a long long time.

PS Does poster number 1 have a life on this thread poor soul, it appears he/she sits here all day with nothing better to do sad bastard lol

27. TMZ, you are dead to me. I've talked you up for months now. You are a hater.

28. Both of these guys are talented and should have great careers. Jennifer Hudson came in fourth a few years ago and she won an Oscar. All the poster running these guys down are bored idiots. Never listen to the morons running TMZ. Hell, most of the time they can't even spell right.

29. Stupid article. Glad to see Adam and Kris showing the world what it really means to be gentlemen. They set a fine example for people, young and old, all over the world.

30. Rubin was the winner and Clay got all the attention. Adam has a great career ahead, most likely on Broadway. With his talent, he doesn't have to worry.
