I am a fan (and you should be too), because...
Well, where to start? After seeing Chris on the auditions for American Idol and his backstory I looked over and told my wife, "That's who's winning this competition and I'm going to make sure to do my part to make it happen!" Every week my family would sit in front of the TV and cheer our "bald guy" on (thanks to my son for that comment...LOL) Needless to say we were in total shock when he was knocked out in 4th place. However, to this day I believe it was the best thing for him. Look at how Taylor's and Kat's albums have fared so far. Chris is far too good an artist and person to have to compromise his artistic talent. Going beyond talent alone I do truly believe that he is a good person. There's no way to truly know someone's heart but I feel his is in a good place. He seems to always keep is family first and to stay true to himself. That's the only way to make it in the business today. We're all pulling for you, Chris! Way to go!
Congratulations on all your successes! My wife, son, and daughter can't wait until we can actually get tickets! We hope you'll come back to the Louisville area soon so we can get another chance to see you! You didn't get quite enough stage time on the Idol's Live tour!
Thanks again for showing us how dreams can come true if you only believe!
