After months of musical montages and theme weeks, it's all come down to Adam or Kris. Wherever your allegiance lies (even if you still miss Allison!), you'll want to get your friends together to celebrate with American Idol finale parties on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Invitation: We've got lots of music-themed invitations to choose from. Or pick any invitation and upload an image of your favorite finalist. You can also add a poll to your invitation to find out who your guests will be rooting for beforehand — you may want to adjust your seating depending on whether you want to encourage or avoid smack talk.

Activities: Watching the show, discussing song choice and rolling your eyes at [insert least favorite judge's name here]'s comments are going to be the main event. However, Idol's trademark phrases and commercial clips would make for an interesting drinking game or round of bingo. Here are some surefire instances to get you started:

  • A judge proclaims, "You made it your own"
  • An audience sign that includes a clever pun
  • A mention of iTunes
  • A fight between Paula and Simon
  • Adam's tongue makes an appearance
  • Kris plays an instrument

Food and Drinks: You can't go wrong with your basic eat-in-front-of-the-TV snacks. If you want to go theme-y, you can bring in Idol's star logo with a plate of starfruit or some star-shaped sugar cookies. To go along with the show's shamelessly plugs, you'll want to have plenty of Coca-Cola on hand. And bonus points for finding those red Coca-Cola cups!

adam fans MUST vote tonight!!!

I suspect that the "100 million" vote count represents the Adam Lambert fans versus everybody else; people out there must have auto-dial machines
