David Cook Asks Fans to Give Him Privacy

Hollywood Grind — Tue, 24 Mar 2009 16:58:08 +0000

David Cook released a message to fans on his MySpace blog:

"ATTENTION!
Hey everyone,
First off, I want to say thank you to everyone who has been coming out to the shows since my last post. The vibe at these shows has been amazing.

Secondly, I have to address some behavior that has become disturbing. We pride ourselves on being accessible to you as fans, but in contrast, we do enjoy what little privacy we can muster. To that end, the efforts by some fans to find our hotel rooms, call our hotel rooms, attach things to our bus, etc., is something I have to condemn. This relationship only works when it remains healthy for both parties, and should this behavior continue, the only thing we can do is take more preventative measures to maintain our privacy, which in turn makes us less accessible to you.

I hope this doesn’t come off as harsh. I merely want to nip this in the bud so we can continue to have a great experience with all of you at the shows we have coming up. Take care and see you at the next show.

~D"

This isn’t going to stop the fans that won’t take no for an answer Dave. You might as well hire some security.

David Archuleta Got a Record Deal

Hollywood Grind — Fri, 06 Jun 2008 14:52:31 +0000

American Idol loser David Archuleta signed with the same record label that signed David Cook, Jive Records.

David’s father is in trouble again. Jeff Archuleta took it upon himself to organize a concert entitled Back Home With David Archuleta at the 12,000-seat E Center stadium in Salt Lake City, but he didn’t clear it through American Idol who still have a contract with David.

A source told the New York Post that Idol execs were concerned that the one-night-only show would damage ticket sales for the official American Idol Live summer tour, which is stopping for two dates at the E Center on July 14th and 15th. The source said:

"They were afraid people wouldn’t buy tickets for the Idol tour if they had already seen David on stage in Salt Lake City."

Jeff told the Salt Lake City Tribune:

"When all the minds met, everyone concluded this wouldn’t work out for this particular weekend, and they just want to reschedule it toward the middle or end of the tour."

Jeff reminds me a lot of Michael Lohan.

David Cook WINS American Idol

Hollywood Grind — Thu, 22 May 2008 03:23:58 +0000

Not only did David Cook win American Idol, but Simon Cowell actually APOLOGIZED to Cook for his comments he described as verging on disrespectful.

I had picked David Archuleta to win American Idol, and I was wrong. Archuleta is going home.

Cook won by 12 million votes! A crushing victory.

Congratulations to DAVID COOK! Your Idol.

David Archuleta WINS American Idol

David Archuleta wins American Idol is the title I will be writing next week when the winner is announced.

David Cook gave a great performance, but Archuleta was so much better. Simon Cowell agrees calling Archuleta’s performance a "knock out."

This was an easy one to predict so many shows ago. Archuleta’s talent just shines through.

Above is a video of Archuleta singing In This Moment. He was driving the audience crazy with this performance. I got goose bumps. Did you? C’mon, be honest, did you?

Syesha Mercado Lip Synching Her Final Song

Hollywood Grind — Thu, 15 May 2008 03:50:35 +0000

Tonight Syesha Mercado was voted off American Idol. So sad. I really thought she would make it to the top two, but I was wrong. She’s still going to have a career. I have to give her credit for not crying her eyes out. She did a beautiful job singing her farewell song.

There is a scandal however. At the 3:17 mark in the video you can see Syesha start smiling while you can clearly hear her still singing. Syesha’s song was PRERECORDED and Syesha was LIP SYNCHING. Is American Idol getting desperate to boost ratings by prerecording performances, rather than having contestants perform live?

David Archuleta and David Cook are now in the top two. Watch their performances closely, to see if they are lip synching too.

David Archuleta Will Be in the Top Two

Hollywood Grind — Wed, 07 May 2008 04:52:06 +0000

David Archuleta gave another great performance tonight on both songs, and the American Idol judges agreed unanimously. Archuleta is looking like he could win Idol, but he’ll have to beat Syesha Mercado. David Cook, in my opinion, will be voted off after Jason Castro, but we’ll see.

Anyone else have a prediction?

David Cook Performs for his Sick Brother

Hollywood Grind — Wed, 16 Apr 2008 04:18:42 +0000

The American Idol judges gave David Cook high marks for his performance of Always Be My Baby. Randy gave him a standing ovation, and even Simon said David is ready for a recording contract. David Cook may just win American Idol. Tonight Cook’s brother, who is dying from brain cancer, was able to be in the audience to see his brother perform.

During a commercial break, David walked down to hug his brother Adam in his seat. All three judges, Simon Cowell, Paula Abdul and Randy Jackson, also hugged Adam.

David Cook Rushed to the Hospital

Hollywood Grind — Wed, 02 Apr 2008 06:14:57 +0000

David Cook was not feeling well after his performance in the video above. Medics from American Idol checked David out, and found his blood pressure was dangerously high, and he was having heart palpitations. David would not leave for the hospital until after the show was over. David was driven to the hospital, and chose not to go by ambulance. A doctor treated David with medication to lower his blood pressure.

According to an executive from American Idol, David’s brother has cancer, and he was doing worse over the past week, so David has been very stressed out. Stress doesn’t usually cause this kind of blood pressure spike alone, so David should really see a doctor for follow up before he ends up having a stroke.

David’s performance above was amazing despite his feeling ill.
