'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?

46. Yes it is wonderful that two guyse from very different backgrounds are friends but please, people are acting like this is the first time a gay guy and a hetero guy were good friends or even people from very different backgrounds. Happens all the time and especially in Los Angeles. I've got gay and hetero friends, single. married, living common law and divorced, various levels of education and income, differnt ethnic backgrounds- do I get a medal or something?

48. Just to clarify, several million more people did not like Kris over Adam. Kris's fan's obviously do not have a life and dedicatd the time to vote over and over and over and over.... I loved Adam but I am not going to vote for anyone that many times through out the 2-4 hrs of voting times. This is why American Idols voting system is askew. It does not demonstrate the true results when it just depends on wacko's who have nothing better to do.

50. If Adam fans need to keep up this diatribe to feel better so be it.

The contestant basically boiled down to do you prefer LIza Minelli or Bruce Springsteen. Celine Dion or Norah Jones.
Librace or Billy Joel. Freddie Mercury or Rob Thomas/James Taylor.

It came down to styles. You can't make people like a particular style of performance or music because you think that is the politically correct thing to do.

52. I'm getting sick of Adam. Since LOSING, he's been an even bigger attention whore than we saw on the show. He is constantly trying to eclipse Kris. He should try a little humility.....like he tried to fool us with during the finals.

53. tmz, you asses, your allusion to adam as loser is ironic at best. pretty sure adam picked up the tab, he's definitely making more money than the champ.

54. Best Friends dine together! Adam is not a loser just the person who did the article and labeled Adam as one.

Adam would never have dinner with Danny and Michael who are homophobic Christian whack-jobs. I hate Danny and Michael they are douche bags.

You're an idiot. It's the media that is creating the buzz about Adam and it started when the show began. It's not going away because Adam should have won but homophobic Christians pulled Kris through. The forecasted winner Adam who lost to Kris is of course getting more media than Kris because Adam is more interesting.

57. I just love both of these guys! Adam was my run-away favourite all season, but Kris was my second favourite. I adore their friendship, how they found their common ground in spite of initial differences, and those differences don't matter to them anymore. Every time I see them together, I love them even more lol They are both completely comfortable with who they are, and with each other, and adore each other. No need to qualify it. I hope Kradam do a ton of stuff together in the press and performances, because they are fantastic together! I wish them both amazing success, and am anxious for both of their albums!

58. I wonder why the other idols didn't dine together. They were all on the show yesterday.

59. I just looked at the picture again. He DOES look like Elvis, with the hair and the glasses.

60. "Just because several million more people like one over the other"

Let's not forget Arkansas has less than 3 million people, so I'm pretty sure Adam had WAY more people voting for him. ;)
