Archuleta Saw "Angels" Way Before Idol

151. Do you people really think TMZ doesn't realize they have a gossip show? Or that they even care about your little posts? All these comments about haters are ridiculous. If you don't want to read bad things about your little golden boy (insert vomit here) than don't come to this website you idiots. boo hoo DAVID SUCKS A$$ and I can't wait until he's gone gone gone gone gone.

Oh golly gee, people like me? Get off it and if any of you suckers believe that he's really like that, I have some ocean-front property in AZ I want to show you.

Something, is not right here!!!

153. You guys are so funny. TMZ is the lowest life of making living. I feel sorry for the employees. Visit rickey.org and he shows all the video clips on Idol. Watch again and again. He didn't say he just discovered the song for the first time. In fact, TMZ is the last one that found this video, a middle school boy singing a song. Most of David's fan know the video which has been in months on youtube. Actually, fans wished him to sing that song. You, haters (jealous young guys, 20s - 30s, those who can't see the truth because of their own darkness) just close your eyes when he sings. He is the best pitch perfect singer.

154. Why do you people keep commenting on his breathing?SO WHAT! Its not that freakin annoying, you guys are just nitpicking because you can't find anything else about him to complain about. Hes had that ever since he got vocal paralysis, and it's not like he can help it unless he starts to drink water in between breaths while he sings or something....Hes a sweet kid, and It's amazing how some of you think hes fake cause hes being polite, I guess it would be a surprise, because we don't have much of these people left in the world.TMZ this story has no relevance, its a song that has inspired him so of course he has sung it before, and I'm sure everyone else sung theirs too( HELLO OVER THE RAINBOW???) And being using a word like overrated to describe him, I think he deserves all of that positive attention, and hes worked hard to deserve it.Hes only 17 and will go a long way. Oh BTW he sang this song at efy(his church) and at his school choir(that hes a member of).

155. LEAVE THE POOR KID ALONE! please, honestly, just let the kid sing...cause he is amazing. he has sooo much talent, and what the CRAP does it matter if hes known the song for a while? this is a SINGING competition...and that boy can sing.

156. The thing is that there is a lot of pressure on these idols and they have to come up with a new song every week, sometimes with a theme. David A. as always plays it safe and sings something he's done many times before. When he had to do the Beatles--that just wasn't in his bag of old tricks so what happened--NOT A GOOD PERFORMANCE--FORGOT THE WORDS. Did anyone make a big fuss about that? NO. What is so original about him and he never takes risks. HE IS A CHEATER. I just don't get the fascination about him. He looks like he's 10-12 yrs old--certainly doesn't act like he is 17. I am now calling him "lip licking monkey boy." I have to tell you after Imagine, which I thought he did well, I noticed that he really sounds the same all the time and that bores me to death. I now start taping the show ahead before I watch it so THAT IT CAN FAST FORWARD THROUGH HIS SET. He may be the idol this year but he is no POP star that's for sure. He is a ballad boy and not a good enough one at that. He would be best suited to sing Christian Gospel songs. People should not be swayed by his "Gee you think I'm good???" or "I can't believe I'm safe this week." or "Don't you think I'm cuddly?" I don't see how the tweens think he is attractive. There's no accounting for taste. He's not hip--in fact he is old-fashioned for a 17 yr. old. Yes, he is BOGUS and highly over-rated.

157. I pray some of you haters get some professional help....seriously. I read every single post in this thread. The untruths are mind-boggling. Where to start? His "foreign country" experience consists of one performance in the Hondurus. He was visiting relatives of his mom's who is a native Honduran. He is not professional. He has no contracts. He won Star Search at age 12ish...before the vocal paralysis. It is sad to read all these slams about his breathing and his voice...technically he has a disability he is fighting to overcome and you folks make fun of him? That is like the cop who tipped over the guy in the wheelchair. AS for song selection, his clips on the tube site have MILLIONS of hits....that is proof to me, a rational and intelligent thinking person, that he would NEVER try to play off that this was a new song to him...and that many people think he is worth listening to.....Which is more than I can say about the hate writers here....I don't get the sense I am reading any Pulitzer Prize winners here. As for his shyness being fake.....another lie. In countless interviews his classmates and teachers at his high school ALL describe him as "painfully" shy...the kid we see in class and recognize as the one who sings songs in school events.....Oh, and the dad bashing that TMZ did...I noticed not a single solitary SPECIFIC name for us to contact for verification. Friends of the family describe his dad as strict but not even close to abusive...in fact, they describe the family as close... Well, bash all you want..whether he wins Idol or not the kid is destined for stardom....and knowing how sweet this kid is, despite the incredible nastiness TMZ has hurled at him, he will likely be gracious enough to talk with you later on....only heaven knows why. I've never been to this site before...I don't plan to return. I programmed my tivo to tape TMZ on tv a few week's ago when I heard you were doing Idol reports....I deleted it last night......This is not the kind of stuff I care to fill my head with......Final thought: Lack of knowledge is a dangerous thing.

158. Hey Carol P, are you up past your bedtime?

159. and there it is again re 150. is being seventeeen a magic number, that age still makes you innocent. Don't get me wrong I think he's pretty talented but there does seem to be a favouritism because he's younger lets say. He does have pitch problems and Simon did say he was nasally. Everyone on there own merits thats what I say. Age has nothing to do with talent, stop using it as an excuse. When you put yourself up for something like this than you have to take the heat that comes with it all, especially if your'e expecting to be famous after the compettition is over, if anything the media pressure gets worse. If you can't take the heat don't go into the kitchen in the first place
FYI no 139 over ratedness is not a word.

160. Veronica, #153,

I see your blood pressure going up. You over-analyzed David as a bad boy. He is just trying to do his best each week. I do not know why you said he is a cheater. David Cook is a real cheater singing other artists' versions four times in a row without giving them credit except Chris Cornell (he didn't have a choice but to give credit to Chris because it was so unique version). David A is a cheater because he sang songs he has sung before? when he was in middle school? How can you explain Dolly Parton's song, smokey mountain memories? Nobody has reportoir of Dolly Parton songs like that among idol contestants. Even "Angels", he twisted some part to make his own and unique. He tries so hard and is still going to school. That's why Paula said you need sleep. He is who he is. You don't have to over-analyze him. If you don't want to buy his CD, it is OK. He is going to sell 10 millions of CDs minus one (yours).

161. He's over-rated and I wish all of you who have a problem with the fact that people don't like this twit would go to another site. This is not a preschool website, it's TMZ BITCHES!!

Posted at 2:44PM on Apr 11th 2008 by Archuhua SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

162. Just goes to show how fake this little monkey is!! His "humble act" is nauseating and this video proves that Poppa has groomed him for years for his 15 minutes of fame on Idol. The kid has had one recording contract that went nowhere,so why do we adults have to stomach him? I know all the little pre-pubescent girls run up their parent's phone bill voting for him. But there is alot more talent on that show than this kid and when he tries to look sincere as he sings he looks like he just dropped the soap in juvie hall. I guess that's how Poppa Archuletta trained him:" Do good and I'll use K-Y. Screw up and I wont". Bend Over! Archuletta,Carly Smithson and Teen Hormone Queen Kristy Lee Cook have all had recording contracts and went nowhere. Idol is supposed to be an amateur competition. I hope the producers close the loophole that let those 3 in this year.

163. Alright you said it right on the money. #159

Daddy Dearist, Jeff Archuleta. Has been associated with Idol for years now. Whats up with that, little conflick of interest I would think.

Not to mention, David Archuleta gay fling bottom boy with Phillip Dagget, which the paparazzi are looking for right now to try and get the old juice story about him.

Why, all the secrets. People want to know. Yes, David Archuleta owes his fan a explanation. With his fan, he would be NO WHERE, NOTHING>>>with out them!!

He should be thrown out of the MORMON church. Phillip Dagget has David Archuleta song he sings on his myspace page days before they perform it. So, yes, there in contact.

164. Bottom line. He just planly SUCKS a BIG one.
He misses, his gay LOVER, in him.

Posted at 12:02PM on Apr 12th 2008 by Archuleta has to go

165. Robbie Williams sings this song, and as i am a huge fan of Robbie's i just cringe when ever i hear someone else sing this song! The only person that can sing this song the way it should be sung is Robbie Williams and not that creepy litle guy you does not even look old enough to shave!!

I say get him off!!
