Allison Iraheta is “American’s Idol fierce rockera,” Latina magazine says in the May 2010 issue of the AI alum with pink hair and a truly memorable voice. The mag includes not only an interview with the 17-year-old singer but also quotes and full-page portraits of all 4 finalists of last seasons, including Adam Lambert, who says he’s extremely supporting of Allison’s career.

The runner-up, who has since become the hottest pop star of the moment, with sales for his debut album “For Your Entertainment” placing it as the second best selling album of last year, says Allison remains like a little sister to him. So her debut album did not fare as expected but that’s not to say he doesn’t have confidence that she will make it, especially with a voice as impressive as hers.

“It’s going to take some time, but she’ll get there. Allison’s still like my little sister, even though we don’t get to see each other as much,” Adam says for Latina. To this, Allison replies, “My mom loves Adam, but I don’t know. That’s gonna be a tough one to sell.” Either way, even if she doesn’t move in with Adam, Allison is happy he’s so supportive of her, especially since she’s so determined to have her music career get off the ground and people know her as a singer on her own, and not just the “American Idol chick.”

“A lot of people still don’t know who I am until I say, ‘Soy de American Idol.’ That’s when everyone starts snapping their cameras. […] I don’t want people to see me and immediately think, ‘Oh, that’s the girl with the red hair who was on American Idol,’ I want them to say, ‘That’s Allison Iraheta. She’s a great artist who makes real music and has something to say – and she rocks’,” Allison explains.

In the meantime, she will have her chance to prove people just what she’s capable of: Allison Iraheta has been confirmed as the opening act for Adam Lambert’s upcoming tour, the Glam Nation Tour. This speaks volumes of how supportive Adam really is.

WHAT IS THIS? I CAN’T BELIEVE WHAT I AM READING. WHY IS ALLISON MOVING WITH AN STRANGER. SHE DOES NOT HAVE FAMILY?. THE BEST FRIENDS AND COMPANION SHE CAN HAVE IS HER OWN MOTHER. WHAT'S WRONG WITH THIS GIRL. SHE REALLY NEEDS HELP.

What’s this?
Allison moving with Adam?
She must be nuts. A decent person is not going to move with an stranger
Come on girl, open your eyes. Listen to good advise. Don’t listen to bad influence. Where is the angel I used to watch on American Idol?

Allison Iraheta did not have a HOT SALES, because the managers at 19 Recording and Jive Record Company are not helping Allison. Allison is only 17. She has the talent and the voice, the manager are not helping her, so she can get the right exposure.
My opinion is that Allison needs some stage training. Also when she is invited to have interviews, shows on TV etc. They should introduce her name and her album. "JUST LIKE YOU". Also, many stores are not selling Allison Album. Why?

Laura, don’t take it too personally. It is the fault of the parents. They are the one that don’t know how to educate children. If parent don’t educate children right! they grow up spoiled rotten. I am a fan of Kelly Clarson. That girl is blessed. The first ting she did was buying a house for her family and her. Not just “I am 18 years old” I can do what ever I want!

She does not have a hot sales, because 19/Jive R Co has not done the right promotion.

She looks so pretty. It is too bad that as soon as she is 18 years old she is thinking in moving out by herself. I though she was going to do like Kelly Clarkson. That firs thing she did was bought a house for her and her family. But I guess I was wrong. This generations think different. Hopefully she is not taken drugs, because it will be a disaster for her. I saw her when she went to sing on San Diego, California. She was really looking either drug or drunk. But I could be wrong.

Moving out?
I feel sorry for her mama. She adore her. I have a child almost same age as Allison.
If my daughter does it to me. I don't know how I am going to feel. She is spoiled brat.
I don’t like her hair she is dyeing it too red.

Wow “Yes she moved out”. I work with one of her aunts. She was almost crying. Because they love her so much. She thinks Allison needs family protection. But what ever! Allison is 18 years old so she is big enough to think for her self. Hopefully she made the right decision. I had been a fan of Allison since she was on American Idol and because of her aunt, I was voting for her 2 hours with two phones. She is a great singer. Hopefully God will protect her and guide her in her career.

I am a fan of Allison. She looks so cute of this picture. I am looking to buy Latina Magazine.
ALLISON IS A ROCKER. I bouth Just Like You album and I love it, but hopefully next album, she can add couple of songs that are for more mature people.


Comment #9 by: PATRICIA on 29 May 2010, 18:17 UTC reply to this comment

Carmen, remember that Kelly Clarkson is from TX and TX. The families in TX like to be united. Allison is from Los Angeles. They probably think diff. Hopefully she made the right choice. And she can make the right decision on her own. I just don’t understand why the sales of her Album are not HOT.

Lisa on which Radio they were playing Allison songs.
I live in Florida and I never hear any radio station playing her songs. It is too bad, because she has a wonderful voice.
I really enjoy listening at the album "Just Like You"
And I am really surprise why aren't the radios not playing her songs?


Comment #11 by: caroline on 29 May 2010, 22:33 UTC reply to this comment

Allison is 18 years old. Surely she is big enough to make her own decisions. Hopefully the right ones. Don't listen to Satan advise. I just pray that God will help her. She is a good person. Because some people take advantage of the good people.. For example they can try to exploit her etc


Comment #12 by: Marie on 30 May 2010, 23:28 UTC reply to this comment

Yes I love Allison Album, it is awesome. Allison take advantage of Adam Tour. Take your Album and mention it to people on the Tour so they can buy your Album. This way you are not just helping Adam you are helping your self to.

I can believe Allison moved out on her own. It is as if she was in prison. She couldn’t wait not even 6 month or a year. Un believable!. Well what’s is what happen when the parent don’t educate well their children. They grow up rotten. Hopefully she is not listen to bad influences, garbage people on the street, hopefully she is not taken drugs to.
And her hair! it is too red!. I used to like her when she was on American Idol. now, it is too red or blue! It think she should change it to her real color.


Comment #14 by: Carla on 31 May 2010, 22:43 UTC reply to this comment

It is okay, I am sure Allison is not dam. She is a grown up and surely she will be okay, by herself. So people stop blaming her parents. I left my house when I was 19th. I am a good person no drugs, not alcohol. I drink like everyone else from time to time. I just wish she does not color her hair too red. The managers at 19 entertainment and Jive Record just need to take a little time and train Allison on the state. Because for me she needs a little improvement. But her voice is great.


Comment #15 by: Rosa on 19 Jun 2010, 14:57 UTC reply to this comment

Moving out? Wow!
I can't believe it!
She still growing up and she is moving out by herself. This is how she pay to her parents!
I don't think it is rights.
Someone has been given her bad advise.
I am almost her age. I would not move out from my parent not until I get married. Who's to take care better of the child, but your own parents. My parents are pain on the neck, but I know they love me and support me on everything. Other people can said they are your friends, but most of the time they just want to destroy you.

I know her aunty. Allison did not move out. She is still living with her parents. She is an angel I love her because she is humble and very talented. Hopefully, God can help her to sell many many albums. And she will be very famous just like Kelly Clarson.

Parents want the best for there children. But of course she will be more save living with her parents. Friends don't love you. Parents and family do. I was living with my family until I got married. Remember, parents can protect as an angel does. Other people don't care. I am talking, because I have a lot of experience.

By the way I love this picture. Allison looks like an angel. To bad I could not find it.


Comment #18 by: Darleene on 22 Jul 2010, 22:40 UTC reply to this comment

I would hate if my daughter does it to me.
This is not how you pay to your parents
She is self-important!!


Comment #19 by: Amanda on 25 Jul 2010, 14:32 UTC reply to this comment

Comment #20 by: Imogen on 01 Aug 2010, 01:10 UTC reply to this comment

I don't get it. What's with all these harsh judgments about her moving out? She's 18, it's her life. What's so spoiled and bratty about that?
