A Night of Fun with Archie

If you’re an AI fan living in Los Angeles and are looking for great (and FREE!) family entertainment this weekend, you’re going to love this event at the Hollywood & Highland Center. On Saturday, December 6th, the Hollywood Christmas Tree will be lit, along with an appearance by Santa Claus and various celebrity guests. Even better, David Archuleta will be performing! While the event is free of charge, guests are invited to support One Heartland, an organization that helps to improve the lives of kids impacted by HIV and AIDS. How can you help? Sponsor one of the 30,000 lights on the 35-foot high Christmas Tree, or donate $100 or more to become a part of the VIP pre-reception. Find out more about the event and pre-reception on oneheartland.org.

Hot cocoa, holiday treats, and David Archuleta…what could be better?

11 Most Shocking Moments of 2008

CLAY: ‘I’M A GAY DAD’

New dad Clay Aiken à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬’ his son Parker was born Aug. 8 à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬’ comes out as a gay man in September, telling PEOPLE, “I cannot raise a child to lie or to hide things.” The Idol runner-up also acknowledges the news will be a shock to some of his fans. “Whether it be having a child out of wedlock, or whether it be simply being a homosexual, it’s going to be a lot.”

Exclusive: David Cook Shoots Promo of His Journey to Success

It is hard to believe that this time last year nobody even knew David Cook, but fast-forward less than a year after his big win and the reigning King of American Idol has had his journey re-filmed for a commercial to promote the upcoming season.

“I think it will be nice to step back and actually watch the last year of my life within a thirty second you know montage,” David told Tarts exclusively at our recent visit to the downtown set of the promo production.

But just because Cook is in the big leagues now doesnà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t mean thatà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s he is well, totally comfortable.

“I freak out on a daily basis for many good reasons, but I think I’m in a very blessed position in my life right now,” he said, adding that he recently attended fellow “American Idol” Carrie Underwoodà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s live concert which featured video of Underwood and runner-up Bo Bice standing beside Ryan Seacrest awaiting the big announcement.

“I freaked out for a second, it was so real and we were in the Nokia and everything,” Cook said. “I had to remember it wasnà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t me.”

Police confident Hudson family murders solved

CHICAGO (Reuters) – Police charged the estranged brother-in-law of Oscar-winning actress Jennifer Hudson with the murders of her mother, brother and nephew, expressing confidence on Tuesday the evidence was sufficient to convict.

“You can never always know how a jury will decide a case but I’m confident the evidence is there and I’m confident we’ll be successful,” Chicago Police Superintendent Jody Weis said.

Police said they had the murder weapon and physical evidence as well as testimony that would convict William Balfour, 27, the estranged husband of Jennifer Hudson’s elder sister, Julia.

Bikini-Clad ‘Idol’ Contestant Going To Hollywood Despite Pitchiness In Left Saline Implant

With just a little over a month before Fox parts the 200-foot-high bamboo gates of Karaoke Island and unleashes their gargantuan ratings beast upon an eager-to-be-trampled public, the American Idol publicity machine is in full swing.

In the coming weeks, two new spots will start creeping repeatedly into your cherished quiet time with Drs. House and Annoyingly Sing-Songy Josh Jackson Sr.: The first is a big-budget, slickly produced Idol fever dream as told through David Cook’s dreamy eyes, offering just a taste of what life might be like from inside the Rockstar-O-Matic machine. (Training-groupies, Costco-sized Jack Daniels bottles, and bouncing a delighted David Archuleta on your knee all figure heavily.)

Honor Student to Attend Presidential Inauguration

She will attend the inauguration of Barack Obama as 44th President of the United States on January 20, 2009. Besides watching the swearing in, she’ll also attend on the black-tie inaugural balls with headline entertainment from American Idol singer Chris Daughtry.

DSO show is solid musically, spiritually

DALLAS à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬’  It was a fittingly sophisticated evening of holiday music.

Contemporary Christian icon Michael W. Smith brought his Christmas show to Meyerson Symphony Center on Tuesday night and, with the help of the Dallas Symphony Orchestra, delivered a concert that had both spiritual and musical substance.

The best pipes belonged to Melinda Doolittle, a former American Idol finalist with a huge, soaring voice. She and backup singer George Huff (also an AI alum) provided some soul. It was badly needed because there were times when Smith à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬’  who wore a suit and tie that a funeral director would have dismissed as too dreary à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬’  was just a bit too Hallmark card-ish.

Idol Star the Real Deal

Even if you’re not a new-country fan — or worse, an American Idol addict — we can probably all still agree Carrie Underwood deserves points just for being here.

Because let’s face it: The years have not been kind to her fellow Idol contenders.

Sure, Kelly Clarkson had one of the biggest pop songs of this century, but she’s since had to trade in her rock mama aspirations for playing second fiddle to Reba McIntire. And let’s face it: Clay Aiken, Jordin Sparks and Chris Daughtry haven’t exactly been burning up the charts recently, either.

But not only has Underwood — the fresh-faced Oklahoma native with the platinum tresses and perky smile — managed to transition smoothly from the Idol stage to the Nashville scene, she’s also become a bona fide star in the process.

American Idol stars in concert for the holidays

Attention American Idol fans! If you canà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t wait until season eight of the hit show premieres in January, this should tide you over. Catch some of your favorite American Idol alumni, and get in the holiday spirit, when Chikezie (Season 7), Diana DeGarmo (Season 3), David Hernandez (Season 7) and Kimberely Locke (Season 2) visit a city near you as part of the à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…“American Stars in Concert for the Holidaysà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬  tour. The concert, running now through December 21, promises an exciting night of solo, duet and ensemble performances and is a great way to see and hear the Idols up close and personal.

à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…“I just got off tour and am doing it again,à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬  Chikeizie told In Touch when we caught up with the Idols during rehearsals in Los Angeles. à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…“This is a smaller scale, though, and more intimate, so doing this show I will have a chance to make contact with the audience and have them walk away feeling it was for them.à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ 

Eich reduces cost of ‘American Idol’ show

The Eichelberger Performing Arts Center reduced the cost of tickets to “American Stars In Concert for the Holidays,” featuring former American Idol stars.

Previously $50, tickets are now $25 for all seats to see Diana DeGarmo, Chikezie Eze, Kimberley Locke and David Hernandez Sunday at either 3 or 7 p.m. at the Eichelberger, 195 Stock St., Hanover.

Academy at the Eichelberger students will join the stars on stage for a special musical selection at both shows.

Previously, tickets were sold for $50, and executive director Deb Levy said part of the reason to lower prices was because of the economy.

“We just wanted to give Hanover an opportunity to see the show,” Levy said.

She hopes that more people will be able to attend with the drop in price. All persons who purchased tickets at $50 have been contacted and have been given the opportunity to receive extra tickets or a refund, Levy said.

X Factor Hallelujah: Simon Cowell takes on Leonard Cohen

Can a great song survive anything? We may be about to find out, as Leonard Cohen’s ‘Hallelujah’ is put to the ultimate test: to be covered by the X Factor winner (whoever they may be) as the nation’s likely Christmas number one.

Leonard Cohen and the X Factor is not an obvious union. For one thing, if Cohen himself had ever auditioned, he clearly wouldn’t have got past the first round. One can only imagine Simon Cowell’s withering contempt for Cohen’s bassy, fragile and idiosyncratic vocal style. The fact that he is acknowledged as one of the greatest and most poetic songwriters of all time would be no defence. Can he sing an ABBA medley, that is far more to the point.

Simon Cowell has the ex factor again as he steps out with another former girlfriend

Simon Cowell clearly isn’t quite ready to jump back into the dating pool just yet.

Cowell stepped out for the first time with a woman on his arm since his split from girlfriend Terri Seymour, he took comfort from the presence of doting ex-girlfriend Jackie St Claire.

The pair were seen leaving a party at club The Electric Birdcage in central London.

Cowell, 49, has famously kept his enemies close, and his ex-girlfriends Sinitta and Jackie closer.

    Theres a fan report about the gala up at fansofdavid
    http://fansofdavid.com/

    lol at fanboy Ryan:
    Ryan Seacrest recieved an award. During his speech he referred to the musical guests that he arranged for à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬’  he referred to David as Archie – then corrected himself saying David Archuleta (I doubt very few in the room knew what the Archie reference was about). He said David is just so likable, that you want to just put him into your back pocket, and then called him just a teddy bear (whoa there fangirl Ryan).

    purplesmile……..

    Thank you so much for posting the video “I Am Second”…

    And I’d just like to say that I respect Jason for the courage to make such an open, personal testimony regarding his faith. That was lovely.

  • Davidx2

    Did anyone else catch David Cook on “Good Morning America” this morning? They were revealing their first Holiday Windows display entry which was from Kansas City….they said someone famous was from Kansas City and then showed Cookie doing a shoutout to his hometown. It was probably taped when he appeared on GMA a few weeks ago but it was a nice surpise as I rushed to get ready for work this morning. :smile_wp:

  • Suzanne

    E–What a great surprise! I love that DA sang Works for Me. I’ve been singing that all the way in to work this am. It’s such a great song–so much material for debate (an ode to ambivalence and resistance to striving for goals–this is a great song for college self analysis) and a full two octave range w/o being show-off-y. I’m so surprised that he was able to sing a song that is a bonus track and not included in most copies of the CD.

  • brie200

    Speaking of Jason, though no official annoucement, new management and legal representation was added to his myspace yesterday. He is now being managed by HARD8 Entertainment, which if you go to their website they also manage the likes of Jakob Dylan, Dashboard Confessional, The Wallflowers, Augustana, Get up Kids and a handful of other artists. Seems like a good fit for Jason. It’s a company with obviously reputable clientele, but it’s not a huge place where he would get lost in the mix. Here’s the website.

    You’re all welcome. I finally got to watch it, too. :)

    brie, I was also going to post about the new management. I hope it’s able to help Jason’s career take off.

  • brie200

    purplesmile, things are certainly looking up. Even his new legal representation is top notch in terms of the music biz and Jason’s been in NY on business since the day after his show. Guess we’ll see, but it’s looking promising.

    P.S… I love ELF with all my heart, I know it’s like four years old but I’m feeling like it’s my favorite movie right now, not just because it’s Christmas, but because it makes me feel such a happiness that I can’t describe. I also love the part where he is on the escalator, but I couldn’t find a good video clip of it :( Really the whole thing is SO dang funny and sweet. If you haven’t seen it… or if you are feeling sad

    Thanks for that link to the Blake blog Michelle! Awww…Sir Diddimus is just the cutest. Glad he is doing things for Pet Rescues. Amazing news that he is working with Ryan Tedder for his next album and that he has new management and a new record deal waiting to be signed. Blake seems to have good connections with a lot of people in the music industry. That means a lot. Blake also seems to work very hard, and I wish him much success.

    I’m hoping this means he’s singing “Works for Me” at least at some of the Jingle Balls. Jeff asked FOD to do a poll as to which songs fans would like David to sing for the Jingle Balls and “Works for Me” was among the top songs. I think, as long as the rest of the songs are all off the regular version of the album, he can throw in an extra. And WFM is supposed to be available on iTunes separately at some point.

    mac — no prob! apparently there are tons more new pics in the Pics section of his MySpace (thanks to Team Plaid for the tip!)

  • Jolene

    I just saw DC on the NY newscast. He was singing Have Yourself a Merry Christmas at Rock Center. The reporter was gushing.

    Does this mean he won’t be on the national telecast, or is he doing two songs? Did we get confirmation that he was singing “Happy Christmas (War is Over)”?

    And if this was only in the NY hour, what are the odds that it will show up on YT?

  • leome

    Someone posted Cook’s Z100 interview on YouTubepart I, part II Part III

    How did he sound Jecelin? He’s still very congested in that interview…

  • Jocelin

    It was a segment of the local newscast and they were doing a report on the tree lighting. It wasn’t a pre-show. I was simply on my computer and looked up when they mentioned his performance. The reporter said he sounded fantastic. I looked up and they were interviewing squealing young women and then showed the Christmas tree. I’m not even sure which station it was on because the channel was changed, either nbc or abc. He was definitely singing that song though.

  • Jolene

    OMFG. So what does DC have in common with the the Olympics and the Presidential race? This!

    I’m sort of shocked. I might actually have to get that thing.
    All credit goes to AheadofStraight from DC42.

  • Jocelin

    I didn’t hear enough to determine if he sounded sick or not. I’m sorry. I heard enough to identify one of the songs.

  • Trina

    OMG get the hell out of here! Did Simon Fuller and/or RCA bribe the World Almanac for THAT? :jittery_tb: :lol_tb:

    So far almost all the people I’ve heard advertised for the tree lighting have been on in the first hour so at least some have to be getting a second song. He sounded really beautiful and looked adorable.

  • Jabkmc

    Jolene – That’s pretty cool!

    For what’s worth Rickey is playing it. He sounded really good, that was beautiful.

    Report from the concert

    TARA ON PHONE: He blew the place apart! He looked right at her! Crush was perfect. TMH was a huge hit! He put so much into ALTNOY. WFM was awesome. Dark jean, fitted, t-shirt and vest. Tara said he came out like heà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s been doing this for years. Heà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s going to be a mega-star. She said he KILLED it. Making eye contact with fans. He was relieved that he got an amazing reaction.

    David worked the stage, was FEEDING off the audience. She said that he and Jesse McCartney were getting the loudest screams. And she couldnà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t stop saying how HUGE heà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s going to be.

  • Jabkmc

    Ooooh! Tight pants alert. No wonder the girls went nuts when he came out. LOL!

    You could actually tell from the cellcast when he got close to the audience because the screaming volume rose several decibels. And the crowd sang along to all of Crush–really cool. He sounded amazing, even through a cellcast.

  • gerreb

    Just listened to Snarky’s cellcast!!! He sang WFM!!! He sounded good even with the crappy audio of cellcasts. Can’t wait for my Jingle Ball on the 15th!

    Btw I hear at the jingle ball they had a girl come up on the stage and david sang to her and touched her hand during TMH lol

  • Jlyn

    Wow, The performance to Permanent was lovely. Talk about quick though – a non-released song off of a two week old album? The choreographer must have really like it. It does break down nicely into a 90 sec. piece. I thought we would see Lie used as a waltz first on the US show, but maybe some other country will beat them. (There are many versions of this show, aren’t there?)

  • mac

    Thanks FolkFan and movin2thabeet for those videos. The judges were pretty much in tears over it and loved it! It was beautiful.

  • FolkFan

    I know that there’s also an Australian version of SYTYCD, but I’m not sure when it airs. I had been thinking a waltz to Lie—it had not even occurred to me a routine set to Permanent.

  • ozarka

    Here are some pics from the set of the ALTNOY video shoot.

    Not sure who all the people are. Except for the little girl, they’re all way too big and tall to be in his video. I know Archie is very youthful looking, but that little girl is way too young to play his “ex.” :laugh_tb:

    Ozarka – hahaha! I think they are probably the people who own the house where it was shot. The girl who posted the pics said her friend got to go the house during the shoot because the house was owned by a friend of hers and she got to be an extra in the video.

    This line from FOD made me lol:

    Next up was Katy Perry, and during the intro to one of her songs, she says that David Archuleta asked for her number backstage, which ignites piercing screams from the audience. She then says, à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…“Back off, heà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s mine.à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬  But she doesnà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t know if heà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢ll really call her. She says some guys will ask for your number, but will never call you because theyà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢re Hot and theyà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢re Coldà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ ¦haha.

    Just the idea of Katy Perry and David in the same stage, now this hahaha sounds fun…
