American Idol Kris Allen got hands-on in Haiti. He helped haul away rubble, and even sang “Amazing Grace” to a group of Haitian children.
Kris said, “We saw a lot of heartbreak but we also saw a lot of hope … The biggest shock for me was when we went by the palace in Haiti. It’s a national icon and it was completely in devastation. This huge beautiful place had been completely demolished … It was definitely the worst devastation that I’ve seen. When I went to South Africa that was really rough, but this was on a totally different scale.”
Footage of Kris’ efforts in Haiti will be shown on tonight’s “Idol” show dedicated to Haiti. It’s a results show, but will also raise money to help in the earthquake recovery efforts in Haiti with funds going to the U.N. Foundation for Haiti.
Nice goin’ Kris. We always appreciate the good vibes from you. XO
