Kris Allen performs "Yesterday" with Gov. Huckabee

Continuing with his post-Idol press tour, Kris Allen appeared on FOX News Channel's Huckabee program, which aired last night. He spoke with the show's host, fellow Arkansas native and former governor of the state Mike Huckabee, and even performed an acoustic set of The Beatles' "Yesterday" with a little support from the governor. Watch the performance below:



Kris talked about his marriage to wife Katy and his mission trips to Thailand and elsewhere, where he said people always had a smile on their face and meant a lot to him and his fellow aid workers. He also said his family and friends keep him grounded, and that his musical influences growing up were Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder and The Beatles.

Kris also joked by suggesting maybe he could be the governor of Arkansas someday and Huckabee said "it's a good gig."
