In perhaps the most shocking American Idol finale ever the newly dubbed Idol was named, and to the surprise of many, it wasn’t Adam Lambert. Ryan Seacrest read the golden envelope and in that moment Kris Allen became 2009’s American Idol taking over David Cook’s 2008 reign. Congratulations go out to both Adam and Kris for a well fought finale.
