David Archuleta’s dad Banned from Show
Posted in David Archuleta, Singers, TV Show on the May 13, 2008
It is being reported that American Idol contestant David Archuleta’s dad Jeff has officially been banned from the show. Sources say that Jeff has been a complete pain interfering with the entire production. From badgering producers, the band, vocal coaches and even the other contestants, someone has finally had enough. The final straw came when Jeff wanted to change the lyrics to David’s song ‘Stand by Me’ by adding Sean Kingston’s lyrics from ‘Beautiful Girls’. Producers were reportedly beyond pissed when David sang it on the show. Changing the lyrics caused problems with the song’s publisher and cost the show a lot of money. Jeff was ordered to sit with AI lawyers last week who told him he was “banned from being in the rooms where David was learning or rehearsing his songs.†He can sit in the audience during the live shows but he’s banned backstage.
Latest American Idol Castoff
Posted in American Idol, Boyz II Men, David Archuleta, David Cook, Elliot Yamin, Mariah Carey on the April 18, 2008
On the elimination show of American Idol, it seemed like a theme was still part of the night. The final 7 performed Mariah Carey and Boyz II Men’s ‘One Sweet Day’. After Elliot Yamin’s performance, he talked about the recent death of his mother and how he misses her and then Mariah Carey performs a song called ‘Bye Bye’ talking about loved ones that have passed away. And speaking of goodbye, Kristy Lee Cook was the latest to be cast off. She was joined by Brooke White and Syesha Mercado in the bottom 3. It was a pretty interesting elimination night when David Archuleta was asked to choose from the groups of David Cook, Jason Castro and Carly Smithson vs. the bottom 3 group (then unknown) for who he thinks is safe. David chose to sit down in the middle.

It is being reported that, as of now, the recording industry has absolutely no interest in the female contestants in American Idol as their focus is exclusively on two male contestants. Some well-connected record industry sources say that the major publishers which include Sony and Warner have their sights set on David Archuleta and David Hernandez. The big wigs have already told their songwriters to write songs specifically for the two Davids whether they win or not. Idol sources say that this is the earliest that publishers have ever committed to the contestants.
