We've spent so much time with Kris Allen he seems like an old pal at this point. We watched him grow up and blow up on the 8th season of American Idol (which he won, duh). But, as this episode of "The 5" will attest, there's still so much to find out.
In this exclusive chat, Allen breaks it all down. From his anatomical anomalies (he is short one rib!), cinematic faves (Ferris Bueller's Day Off), his first instrument (viola) and the first time he ever wore a cardigan (the day of the interview).
Most intriguing though is Allen's admission that he never watches footage of his own performances, due to being such a stringent self-critic. I guess that's what it takes to be a champion.
Kris Allen's debut, self-titled album is available now. Check out his episode of "The 5," as well his clip for "Live Like We're Dying" below.
