<p>It will be a bit of a reunion and reminder of the glories of last season when <a href="http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hc&zu=http://top40.about.com/od/l/p/krisallen.htm">Kris Allen</a> and <a href="http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hc&zu=http://top40.about.com/od/1/p/allisoniraheta.htm">Allison Iraheta</a> take the <i>American Idol</i> stage this Thursday, February 25, 2010 as part of the new season's first results show.

<p>Kris Allen is expected to perform the Beatles' classic "Let It Be." He is currently in the top 25 on pop singles charts with his hit <a href="http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hc&zu=http://top40.about.com/od/singles/gr/krisallenlivelike.htm">"Live Like We're Dying."</a> Allison Iraheta will be singing her new single "Scars." She will be hoping the performance gives her a boost in sales. Her debut album peaked at a relatively weak #31 on the charts and the first single <a href="http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hc&zu=http://top40.about.com/od/singles/gr/allisonirahetafriday.htm">"Friday I'll Be Over U"</a> failed to make a significant chart dent.</p>
