With the debut album from David Archuleta set to hit stores next month, the former American Idol runner-up will be making the publicity rounds a lot over the next few weeks.
In the following video, fans get go behind the scenes of a recent photo shoot with the talented, adorable singer...
We weren't even gonna comment on Clay Aiken's recent announcement that we're gay.
What do we care which gender Aiken finds attractive? He's the same person either way, the same great singer.
But Simon Cowell came out with a classic, hilarious quote on the situation that we had to publish. When confronted with the official news, the American Idol judge said:
"Wow, that's a shock. It's like being told Santa Claus isn't real - unbelievable."
And people wonder why we love Simon so much!
With his album due out November 18, David Cook has just released his first single from it.
It's called “Light On” an here are the song's lyrics:
Never really said too much
Afraid it wouldn’t be enough
Just try to keep my spirits up
When there’s no point in grieving
Doesn’t matter anyway
Words could never make me stay
Words will never take my place
When you know I’m leaving
(Chorus)
Try to leave a light on when I’m gone
Something I rely on to get home
One I can feel at night
A naked light, a fire to keep me warm
Try to leave a light on when I’m gone
Even in the daylight, shine on
And when it’s late at night you can look inside
You won’t feel so alone
You know we’ve been down that road
What seems a thousand times before
My back to a closing door and my eyes to the seasons
That roll out underneath my heels
And you don’t know how bad it feels
To leave the only one that I have ever believed in
[Chorus]
Sometimes it feels like we’ve run out of luck
When the signal keeps on breaking up
When the wires cross in my brain
You’ll start my heart again
When I come along
Chris Daughtry will guest-star on the 100th episode of CBS's CSI: NY.
The 100th show will air in November. It centers on the pursuit of a serial killer who targets people named Mac Taylor – the name of the character played by the show's Gary Sinese.
Daughtry – who is slated to shoot his role on Monday – has been cast as Machiavelli Taylor, described in the production notes as "an attractive 30-something year old musician."
Paula Abdul and Kara Dioguardi are former roommates.
We wonder how the new judge and popular songwriter would react, though, if she heard Abdul essentially taking credit for her career.
Here's what Paula said to OK! about the new addition to American Idol:
"Kara and I are good friends.... I started the whole evolution of what her career's become, because I found her on the streets of New York. She was an aspiring song writer, and I said, 'are you good?', and she said, 'yeah' and I heard her demos and I convinced her to quit her job and move to LA in my house."
Having sat through American Idol auditions in New York, Jacksonville, Louisville and San Francisco, new judge Kara Dioguardi told The New York Post she's found her footing
"I just know I'm getting my groove, loosening up and forgetting about the big elephant in the room," Kara said about the enormity of American Idol and of keeping pace with Paula Abdul, Randy Jackson and Simon Cowell.
It did take the songwriter a bit to get used to all the attention.
"The first few [audition] cities I was like, 'Oh my God, the camera is on me' - it was a little strange," she said. "But I'm starting to let my true self come out. You forget about the camera and start being you. And that's been fun for me."
When will David Cook release his debut album?

But Katharine McPhee obviously wanted us to report on her cleavage, right? Why else would he have left her bra at home in the following photo?
Katharine McPhee might be saying something interesting in this picture. But we're too distracted to notice.
