Kris Allen officially has “No Boundaries” now that he’s the American Idol champ- and the Arkansas native is filling us in on his relationship with the King of Mean, and his #1 inspiration.


Kris stopped by “Live with Regis and Kelly” and right off the bat Regis wanted to know about the Idol winner’s relationship with the judges.

Did they intimidate you at all?
You know, I think the first time I was on the show, I think they intimidated me. But-
But, by the time they get down to the (big boy for you….the analysis??), you must be shaking.
You know, you always want that good thing from simon, but sometimes you don’t get it, so, that’s okay.
After you won, did simon come up to congratulate you?
Actually, I haven’t talked to simon at all.
No kidding-
Where did he go?
Went out the back door, couldn’t wait to get the hell out of there.
I know, right.

Then on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Ellen asked Kris about his number one fan.

I mean, my wife has been the biggest support and I almost gave up a lot but she was like “you have to keep going” cause she believed in me when I didn’t believe in myself and she’s great she’s a huge fan of you by the way.
I like her.

And how did Kris feel when critics said the hunky 23-year-old should have kept his wife under wraps?

I care about her a lot… it didn’t bother me that she was brought up. I think it bothered her more than it bothered me.
So what are you going to get her now? Cause you owe her…she got you here.
A vacation?
You should go on a vacation for sure.

With the title of American Idol in his back pocket… that’s bound to be one heck of a vacation!
