Archuleta vs. Cook, Who’s Going Home?
the TV addict — As he’s wont to do, Simon Cowell ended off tonight’s AMERICAN IDOL on exactly the right note by telling David Archuleta, “At the end of the day, this show is about finding a star. And tonight, I think we’ve witnessed one of the great finals. But here’s the difference, in my opinion David [Archuleta] you came out here to win and what we have witnessed is a knock out.” In other words, yes David Cook is a star and will no doubt parlay his stint on IDOL into a bona-fide career.

It sounds rehearsed and like a Disney kewpie doll with strings being pulled but I really do believe that he believes it. David Cook seems aloof and charming and real and still knows exactly what to say to be the nice guy who rocks. As far as he's ...

The "American Idol" Poll You've Been Waiting For: Which David Delivered Tonight's Knockout Punch? [Idolator's American Idolatry]
Idolator: Music News, Reviews, And Gossip — The first third of the American Idol finale is in the history books everywhere in the country! (Except maybe Hawaii, although maybe not—after all, since the weather there is so nice it would make sense to have "prime time" at 5 p.m. so as to maximize the enjoyment of their evenings.) The three songs have been sung, the songwriting contest has once again been exposed as a way to get America's worst songwriters more screen time than they ever deserve, and the judges have seemingly abandoned David Cook—or decided to play some weird game of reverse psychology with his fans in hopes of really giving Jeff Archuleta a Montreal ...
