Kris Allen performed a cover of "...Baby One More Time." (Fox)

"American Idol" winner Kris Allen is proving that he can cover more than just songs by The Script. The singer reportedly performed at an all-girl high school on Thursday as part of an incentive for a charity fundraiser, and he delivered a smooth and funky performance of "...Baby One More Time," Britney Spears' first #1 hit.

Kris Allen's debut album will be in stores on November 17, one week before runner-up Adam Lambert and two weeks prior to the release of Alison Iraheta's self-titled debut. Last we heard, though, the current track list for the album was still being decided.

Check out Kris Allen's performance below: do you think he should channel Britney Spears more often? Let me know your thoughts by leaving a comment below and as always stay tuned for more "American Idol" news.
