American Idol winner Kris Allen

Showbiz News: He made a name for himself when he won the eighth series of American Idol, both singing and playing the guitar.
But it seems Kris Allen may have to put the guitar playing on hold after being involved in a car crash on Tuesday.
Kris' mother, Kimberly, tweeted a picture of her son lying in a hospital bed clutching his wounded arm, while wearing a neck brace.
She accompanied the image, writing: 'From Kris: he's in a lot of pain, arm broke, may not play guitar for a while. Prayers welcome please!
However the image shows the singer pulling a funny face, suggesting that he's not too upset by the incident.
She continued: 'Kristopher and Katy are both pretty beat up but ALIVE! Thank you Jesus! They are setting his arm now and will have surgery tomorrow.'
His mother even took the effort to assure fans that his beloved French bulldog was fine, writing: 'Zorro is fine too!' Before adding: 'Very shook up, but not injured.'
Later in the day the indie star also took to Twitter to let his fans know he was fine, as well revealing that he and his wife, Katy, are expecting a child.
