Kanye West Congratulates Kris Allen For ‘Heartless’

Posted: 26 May 2009 10:54 PM PDT

Any of you watch American Idol this season? The winner of the show was the very shy Kris Allen from Conway, Arkansas. Well, his version was impressive. After finishing, judge Simon Cowell said that his rendition was better than the original. I don't think Kanye West was insulted by the comment because after the season ended he called to congratulate him on his win and rendition of his song.

No word yet if the two are going to try and make a song together but it might be in the works.

Listen to Kris Allen's studio version of "Heartless" after the jump…

Will.I.Am White House Material?

Posted: 26 May 2009 11:29 AM PDT

Will.i.am apparently wants in on the Obama Administration. He told reporters in India that if asked he would join the administration in a heartbeat. Will.i.am was a big supporter of Barack Obama in supporting his Yes We Can campaign. He also teleported to the set of CNN during the elections to explain his efforts in the campaign.

Will.i.am

Not that that wasn't appreciated by Obama but I mean come on. If Obama accepted every unqualified supporter help him in the oval office we would have more problems than normal happening.

Sorry Will.i.am, the best way to get into the White House is with a visitors pass.
