'Idol' vet Allison Iraheta rocked pink hair and black nail polish for the May cover of Latina, which hit newsstands last week. The Salvadoran American singer's feature spans eight pages and contains full-page portraits of last year's top 4 finalists.

If you're an Iraheta fan, this issue is a must-buy. Allison reveals details about her previous attempts at talent show fame, along with thoughts on the less-than-stellar sales of her debut album, Just Like You. She also speaks about the support and confidence she feels from fellow 'Idol' contestant Adam Lambert, who is quoted as saying, "It’s going to take some time, but she’ll get there."

Adam also jokes about telling Allison she can move in with him if and when she decides to attend college. "Allison’s still like my little sister, even though we don’t get to see each other as much,” he said.

Lambert's invite is sweet, but the 'Friday I'll Be Over U' star, who turns 18 this week, has already announced that she will be celebrating her birthday by moving into her own place in Los Angeles.

Watch this behind-the-scenes video of Allison at her Latina shoot:

Adam may not get a new roomie in Allison, but the 'Idol' buddies will be spending lots of time together later year: Iraheta and Orianthi will open for Lambert on his 'Glam Nation' tour. Allison told On The Red Carpet that she is looking forward to supporting her friend and mentor:

"Pure awesomeness. Adam is unbelievable live and so is Orianthi. I feel so lucky and blessed to be part of this. I'm so stoked and excited, it's going to be a lot of fun."
