"American Idol" Kris Allen to play Madison Square Garden

Kris Allen won "American Idol" less than six months ago, but he is already getting the opportunity to perform at one of the world's most famous arenas. Allen--along with Taylor Swift, John Mayer, and fellow "Idol" winner Jordin Sparks--is set to perform at New York radio station Z100's Jingle Ball. The concert will be held on December 11, slightly more than three weeks after Allen's self-titled debut hits stores.

While Kris Allen may have won the popular Fox reality show, sales of his debut album have been weak so far in comparison to that of runner-up Adam Lambert. This concert will mark an extremely high-profile appearance, though, one that could easily be used to gain additional popularity.
