It looks like Adam Lambert and his "Idol" crush Kris Allen are ready to make beautiful music together -- they hit up a recording studio in Los Angeles yesterday.

So far Kris has topped Adam on the music charts.

That "angel pink mesh" thong on Kris Allen's wedding registry -- consider it a surprise from his wifey, because he had no idea it was even on there.
The "American Idol" winner talked about the saucy unmentionables on 104.3 MYfm today -- but the best part... his politically correct, but completely insincere answer about Kara DioGuardi's heinous finale song.
Just listen "between the lines."

Sources at "American Idol" tell us the margin between Kris Allen and Adam Lambert "wasn't even close" -- and the biggest factor in Allen's win was Danny Gokey.
Here's what we know. The "lion's share" of Gokey's votes went to Kris Allen. The extent of the lopsidedness surprised a lot of the big wigs at "A.I." We were not told the exact votes but our sources say the AT&T scandal had no impact on the outcome -- the spread was that wide.

Major controversy has erupted over the results of this year's "American Idol." AT&T has just admitted to giving Kris Allen fans in Arkansas -- his home state -- an unfair voting advantage ... but the company doesn't think it mattered enough to affect the final outcome.

Here's the statement released by AT&T: "In Arkansas a few local AT&T employees were invited to attend two local watch parties organized by the community ... they brought a small number of demo phones with them and provided texting tutorials to those who were interested. That said, it's quite a leap to suggest that a few individuals could have impacted the final results."
The brass at "American Idol" don't think it's a big deal either, by saying "Kris Allen is, without a doubt, the American Idol... In no way did any individuals unfairly influence the outcome of the competition."
Tell that to Adam Lambert.

Here we thought "biblically correct" Carrie Prejean would swing more towards Christian cutie Kris Allen -- but when we asked her this morning which "American Idol" she was backing, she surprisingly said Adam Lambert ... you know, the theatrical one.

In light of yesterday's Prop 8 ruling in California, Carrie Prejean patted herself on the back on this morning's "Fox & Friends" -- saying she's "not the bad guy" since the state's Supreme Court agreed with her.

What a difference a few months makes -- now Kris Allen is your "American Idol," but last year he was just a guy from Arkansas asking for a pink thong.
TMZ dug up Kris and his wife Katy's online Target wedding registry, and hidden among the saucepans and the cutlery sets is a request for one pink thong -- an "angel pink mesh" thong to be exact.
Looks like the plan paid off -- they only requested one, but were given two.
Allen got hitched to his long-time girlfriend in September 2008. Evidence suggests they are happily married.

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.

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?

In the shocking finale last night, Kris Allen beat out Adam Glambert for "American Idol" -- and according to Randy Jackson, "America gets it right every time, dawg."

Just ask Taylor Hicks, Fantasia Barrino and Ruben Studdard ... who were all eventually dropped from their labels.

Here's adorably boring "American Idol" winner Kris Allen (left) -- and "Six Feet Under" and "Ugly Betty" star Freddy Rodriguez (right).

Chances are, one of them will eventually be dropped by a record label.
We're just sayin'.

In 2003 Ruben Studdard was crowned "American Idol" -- but six years later the Velvet Teddybear says the show that made millions off him and many other wannabeens wouldn't even fork over a few bones for his flight to the finale!

Sure gives Kris Allen and Adam Lambert a lot to look forward to.

You'd think "American Idol" grad Chris Daughtry would be all about the Glambert, with their mutual love of guyliner and wailing out rock tunes -- but when we asked him his pick last night, dude was Team Kris.

"American Idol" wannabe Kris Allen took time out of practicing his karaoke -- and being adorable -- to spend the afternoon with his wife Katy in L.A.

Much to the chagrin of his teen girl and gay fans, the 23-year-old has been married for just over seven months.
Tonight on "Idol," the devout Christian will perform rock songs against Glambert, the chick and that other guy.

Maybe it's just us ... but last night on "American Idol" it seemed Simon Cowell and Randy Jackson could not hide their disdain for newbie Kara DioGuardi. Watch closely as Kris Allen finishes his performance and Randy tries to weigh in, only to be jock blocked by the new chick in town. The looks between Simon and Randy are priceless.
