David Cook Rocks the Big Apple

David Cook Rocks the Big Apple

American Idol winner David Cook and runner-up David Archuleta arrive at a New York City airport and head over to their Big Apple hotel on Monday, Memorial Day.

Cook, 25, recently shared about his upcoming album: “It’ll probably be a rock record. I just want to make a record that’s going to make the hair on your neck stand up. Even if it doesn’t do well commercially, as long as I can put out a record I am proud of, that’s the goal right now. And hopefully the success will follow.”

And here are three more appearances Cook will be making in this week: Live with Regis & Kelly (Tuesday, May 27), The Ellen DeGeneres Show (Wednesday, May 28) and The Today Show (Thursday, May 29).

Both in New York, that is super. Two super talents who deserve lots of success. Loved them on Idol. Hope to see lots more of them.

Keep us updated with David Cook pics and news because we love him, or at least I do. He is a very talented guy who not only can carry a tune, but he’s also quite eloquent and funny. He’s gorgeous, so JUST JARED, I hope you post a lot of him.

Meanwhile, David A. is adorable. His voice gives me chills. <3

David Archuleta is probably being included in all of the post season hype because he is an amazing talent and was the front runner from the first song that he song. Not to take anything away from David Cook, but I feel he had to work his way to the win, improving each week. Archuleta had it from the beginning (vocally). So CONGRATS to both. I believe you don’t need to win the title to make be a success if you truly have the talent.

And let’s face it, with 97 million votes, and DC winning by 12 million, we know what fans knew how to utilize the “power vote”.

To Leslie,

Maybe the Davids are together because they actually LIKE each other. ( Or because they LOVE each other) Being the true fan that you are, surely you saw the moment after when Cook hugged Archuleta and told him that he loved him. In the interview he told what he said to him and said that he had the big brother thing going on with him. Maybe he is getting so many interviews because he was a frontrunner throughout the ENTIRE competition. And because of his HUGE fanbase!!!!! If you would watch ALL of the interviews you would see how articulate David Archuleta really is. He has come such a long was since the beginning of this thing. How sad to degrade a 17 yr old boy that has worked so incredibly hard to get where he is….and he is sooooooo deserving. If you are such a fan of Cook’s, maybe you could listen to him talk about Archuleta. He said “How can you hate this face?” He LOVES this guy. Yes, well maybe he is still a little shy and laughs while he talks (I find this quite adorable) but he know what he wants and what he says makes total sense. He is so mature for 17 and just gets better as the days go by. Not to mention his singing voice…..WOW… he is AMAZING. David Cook said that after Archuletas performances the final night, he had conceded to take second. I was going to look up the video, but you can do it yourself. He also said that David Archuleta “has more talent at 17 than I (Cook) know what to do with at 25. “You might want to check out some of his interviews and listen to him speak of the respect that he has for this young man. I have always been an Archuleta fan, but enjoy Cook very much also. After seeing and hearing Cook talk about the other idols with so much true respect, I respect him so much more. Too bad some of his fans don’t follow his example. I have tickets to see the top 10 on tour and I can’t wait. They are all wonderful and I hope that everyone of them finds success in their careers. CONGRATS TO YOU ALL! They will have a great summer, they all get along so well and will be great to watch….FUN!! This is truly the best to 10 EVER :)

i seriously dont know what america was ******* thinking
im still very upset that david archuleta didnt win. david a. is a much more skilled singer. i mean cook is good, just not as good as archuleta

i think that cook needs to loose a little weight in his stomach area.

DAVID ARCHULETA UR AMAZING, IM SORRY YOU DIDNT WIN, THE CROWN WAS MEANT FOR YOU!

If David Cook starts hooking up with every bimbo in Hollywood, he’s bound to lose some fans. He shd just keep singing.

maybe cook should take a lesson from Archie’s book…he doesn’t want to have a girlfriend yet because he wants to focus on his music and career and he knows a relationship would get in the way of that. I remember KC from season 2 of AI and she came off as being one of those “mean girls”. Maybe she’s grown up since then, but hey FIRST IMPRESSIONS are hard to overcome!

David Cook needs good public relations people at this point. They would tell him … ruuuunnnnn fast away from Kimberley Caldwell. People despise her, since she’s so annoying … she’ll ruin his career … he’ll end up with same outcome as taylor hicks I’m afraid, no matter how good his voice is.

You probably got laid, now run cookie run !!!!!

To TJ:
“I think much of DC is an act, but he carried it out so well on the show, he deserved to win over DA who just seems unready for the wild world of showbiz (he’s hugely talented though and should suceed inthe future). Starting out geeky with greasy hair and a lame song like “Happy Together”, he knew how to build himself up, shedding those extra pounds (his idol-mates did say he worked out a lot and did you see his demo video for Analog Heart from 2 years ago where he looks almost exactly as he does now, hmmm) and jolting us with “Hello” and “Billie Jean” at the perfect moments in the season. Let’s not forget the tears on the finals after singing “The World I Know”. Perfect! He won our hearts and made us vote 4 hours straight, good thing his musical talent makes him deserving.”

See, I really don’t feel like any of it WAS an act. Alright, the make-over I suppose I can kind of understand where you’re coming from, but I feel like that was more just that he genuinely got to the show, realized he could benifit from a bit of a make-over and working out, so he did it. haha. There prob wasn’t much “calculation” in that. And as for the crying after TWIK, that DEF had NOTHING to do with trying to get votes. Some of it MAY have had to do with just being in that moment sorrounded by so many people, but I think that 95% of that emotion was due to the fact that his brother Adam was there, when he had not been expected to be able to make it before. So for THAT reason it was an extremely, extremely emotional thing for him. Just had to get that out there :)

As for him and Kimberly? Well, okay, I’d be lying if I said I WANTED them to have a long term relationship, but honestly, let the guy have some fun! He’s 25, gorgeous, and single- LET him date a hot chick or two simply for the sake of getting some if that’s what he wants to do! :) And if it ends up being more than that (which I have a feeling it wont), well then I trust his judgment, and maybe she really is a pretty cool girl! I just think it’s so silly to be getting all upset over this. They’ve gone out on ONE dinner date so far! It’s NOTHING serious as of now haha

DAVID ARCHULETA!!!!!!!!!! (FAINTS) omg, he’s so adorable. Seriously, how can you not love this guy?!?! He’s so sweet, soooo cute, and so amazingly talented. his voice gives me chills. he’s still my American Idol, even if Cook has the title. cook deserved it too though. I like both, but i like archuleta better, because i see him as someone i can relate to more. that and he overcame a lot to get to this point but anyways, has anyone noticed that guys who win american idol have nvr done well? ruben, hicks…i hope cook breaks that chain.

i love watching these two doing an interview together for trl . if you watch their interview on that show they actually sang the phonebook . cook and archie both sounded amazing . they also did an interview on today in new york . when you watch them together you see how much they care about each other . cook is like a big brother to archie . also , when they were in new york last week they did a lot of interviews seperately . archie is definitely getting better with his interviewing skills . i can’t wait to see them on tour this july together and with the other top 10 contestants .
