I told my manager, 'Please, somebody protect me,' because I've never missed a show ... I like to perform," so she revealed. "I felt like, after I had my surgery, nobody knew about it. The Color Purple didn't know about it, my record company didn't know about it, and I was very hurt that ... I wasn't receiving any flowers, any balloons."</blockquote> That was heartbreaking to read. How could "the Color Purple people" and her "record company" not know that she was in the hospital having a tumor removed? That's crazy. No wonder she and her management parted. No flowers or balloons! *sniff* *sniff* On the other hand, I don't understand why she didn't tell the Color Purple people and her record Company of her medical problems. People usually have to explain why they are not going to be at work.

Still a total fangirl for Mista Elliott Yamin too... he and David share that same love and appreciation for the history of their craft, and for those willing to dig deeper, these young men have <strong>deep</strong> soul underpinnings in their vocal deliveries that can nail you to the wall....... both have great traits of humility and genuine appreciation for their fans that endear them to us.... no "smoke and mirrors" needed for these two.... and that's all right with me! :cool1_tb: ITA E!

Good for them! I can only imagine how terrifying and frustrating it must be to not be physically able to do something you love, and live off of. The article doesn't elaborate on Fantasia's tumor. I do hope it was benign, and that she's on her way to a full recovery.

They both have great distinct voices, very talented, and if I recall, both genuinely like each other, 2 of the best male singers to come out of idol besides Clay. Elliott's WFY is really a good pop song, not too popish, with enough room for Elliott to showcase his talent. I hope David has something like that on his album. ianamy: I don’t mind David A being compared to Elliott.

It just didn't quite work out. Clay went more for AC, while Blake is a misrable failture. Eliiot is doing well with a indie label. I've seen David compared to him. AI has its male pop stars.

Kidding! David A has improved quite a bit as a performer, but why is the grown man writing this review commenting on a 17 yr. old boy's "dreamy" eyes and, um, "soulful" body language. I think I'll send him a special copy of David's Popstar magazine issue so he can hang some dreamy pics up in his office. I'm expecting the DC/CD comparisons intensify as well. David and his team can help themselves out immensely by ensuring that David's music is a distinctly different brand of rock (I don't think David really leans toward Daughtry's sound anyway). Daughtry might have a stronger "rock" voice by some measure, but DC's voice is much more versatile, which, I think, will translate into a much more interesting sound.

Other Idols have issued press releases when they've had issues. I can understand that they would have wanted to make sure that it was a benign tumor but once that was determined, why not blunt the criticism she was getting? Just seems awfully silly to let her continue to be beat up in the press as if she was missing shows because she was lazy or just wasn't willing to make the commitment to her fans or the show.

ANYTIME SOON.... If anything, it will<strong> intensify</strong>. Daughtry is for now the most successful "Rock" guy from Idol, and he's looked at as the "benchmark" for others that follow... unfair perhaps, but unless he has a major slide or something, anyone on Idol pegged as the rocker guy will be compared/contrasted to him... as DC establishes his identity outside of Idol and into that brave new world of the rock/alternative genre, he'll have to deal w/ those comparisons - <strong>and not just w/ Daughtry </strong>- for a little bit... Archie most definitely will have the same comparisons to deal with - his will be with the more established pop acts until he carves out his own niche.. One thing I feel is different in Archie's case is he may now <strong>be the benchmark </strong>on Idol for the male leaning "pop" singers... he's the first <strong>male</strong> contestant that will be a certified pop star from the show - whereas some may be viewing DC as following in the footsteps of Bo Bice and Daughtry... they'll both have their work cut out for them, but away from the Idol bubble, enduring comparisons to those "benchmark" and more established artists in their respective genres of rock and pop is our "cross to bear" as fans...
