I would trade Kristy Lee for Hernandez. He can move.

I would too. And for the same reason.

Also someone asked for a vid of DC & DA singing the phonebook. Here it is:

“WaMu” LOL.

I still find it so charming how articulate Cookie can be on a single hour of sleep. And he’s got a cute vocabulary and one hell of a sense of humor, to boot. (Note-to-self: Don’t eat spicy ramen while watching Cookie do an interview.)

CookÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s going to be on the Today show in NY?

What? Really? I may have to go and record every episode from here on out and watch them all back to see if he’s on…

god i love that man. that interview was GREAT! but u know what i was thinking? what if archie HAD won… i just cant imagine him doing this many interviews and being articulate enough to handle them all. tho, i’ve noticed he is getting better at them and seems a tad more relaxed and personable.
cant get enough of cookie’s guitar hero commercial, that will NEVER get old.
and hey, even the president’s daughter voted w/ us, lol. good times.

The red carpet report from Jimmy Kimmel last night featured both David’s & past Idols too

I just don’t know how he’s able to come out and be so eloquent and charming on only an hour of sleep. So utterly relaxed & confident (at least on the surface) in any setting. What a representative Idol has this year!

ETA – re iTunes…if I click the link to the song in the top songs list, it reports unavailable, but if I go to David’s page or the whole top song list and click the “buy song” button down on the song details line, it works for me. glitchy!

Aw, poor baby. sleeeeep! Also, I felt weird cheering a Bush when Jenna said she voted for DC.

Lots of video game talk..guitar hero and madden…lol: “18-34 yr old males, embrace him! for he is one of your own! (and buy the darn record when it comes out)” I was talking to my bf (who is an 18-34 yr old DC fan, yay!) about video game sales – GTA4 sold 3.6 million copies in one DAY, and those suckers are $60 a pop…no wonder they want that market. So is Nintendo an Idol sponsor now?

iTunes *is* acting all wonky about ToML. Hee, David Cook broke iTunes…

Running out? wow! LOL I had that same thing happen last week when I went to download the performances saying they weren’t available. I’ve bought all the ones from this week. I just did a test to try and buy the songs again all but actually making the purchase and everything went fine. hmmmm

Supplies for I-tunes run out? LOL! Trust DC to be able to do that…hehehe!

YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love DC! I’m anxiously awaiting his music… bring it on DC!

On a side note… jeepers – I can’t imagine Amanda on tour… she looks like she’s going to the electric chair on the finale.

Yes, when Leno asked who she voted for she said Cook. She may not be as die-hard in her power voting as other Cooktards but considering she was literally just married, I was thinking where did she find the time. Shouldn’t she have been on her honeymoon or something? LOL

Cook’s going to be on the Today show in NY?

Trina, I got that message last night with Dream Big (yes, I actually liked it, lol). Even though it was still listed, it came up as no longer available.

By: Trina

Trina — Fri, 23 May 2008 13:45:26 +0000

How come Time of My Life isnt on iTunes anymore? It still shows up as #1 but if you click on it I get a message saying its no longer available in the US store??

That’s funny about Jenna Bush saying she voted 40 times. Did she say she was a Cook fan?

That interview was love.

By: GwendolynD

GwendolynD — Fri, 23 May 2008 12:58:16 +0000

Awww…can’t he sleep? I don’t understand how he’s so cordial and intelligent with one hour of sleep. I’d be a zombie.

I loved that Jenna Bush (on before him) said she got so into Idol this season that she voted “40 times”. Well…she’s obviously not and over-the-top Cooktard, but she’s one nonetheless….

What a great interview. He continues to handle himself so well! I love that he can laugh at himself, doesn’t think anything is beneath him (dancing in his underwear or the group sings).

He is great at avoiding saying anything negative by answering the part of the question that allows him to be positive. i.e. “Is it kind of a letdown now that the show is over?” He doesn’t say “It was super stressful and a lot of work, so no.” Instead he simply says “now onto the tour,” and even gets in the start date and city.

He handles himself really well. Go Cook!

I loved that interview so much last night! How humble can you be after going on very little sleep? He was so adorable and charming. Yes, I adore him!

I thought Randy was pretty quiet for Randy on the night of the Finale as well, and it seemed strange and out of place.

I loved this interview, that guy is HOT!

Again, I have posted this before, anyone know where we can get MP3 performances of finale night,? I want ZZTOP and David C.

I am so jealous of all of you who will get to see him in concert soon! *doin’ a Brooke pout here*

annoula – those big ole’ boots are all kinds of hot.

He is just so impressive — he’s well spoken, well thought — all on a one hour nap.

AI really lucked out with the guy — a true (made) camera-ready well-spoken grown-up smoken hot lava bomb.

And on another subject, as typing lava bomb made me think of it, did anyone else thing Mr. Randy Jackson (aka Capt. Kangaroo) was fairly subdued on finals night? Out on the red carpet interviews and sitting at the desk — kinda quiet. He and Simon must know ahead of time. That would explain Simon’s apology as well.

Cook’s gonna be on the Today show Thursday morning with Archie — both singing! Set up your tivo.

Sherryw…the “EEAAASY” part was my favorite, too. You could tell he was trying not to say he thought it was lame, but the audience saw through, and he kind of gave in while still looking professional. That’s awesome.

My question is, why couldn’t they have had him sing instead of that other girl who sounds exactly like some other person?

I think the boots are my favorite part of his whole wardrobe.

Sally: Only 10 go on tour.
Hernandez and Amanda do not tour.

I would trade Kristy Lee for Hernandez. He can move.
I was actually pricing flights to AZ for July 1. August 10 is not soon enough.

Hello — do all 12 go on tour because it seems that way from the previous information. I thought only 10 went on tour.

Ah. my little word nerd is too cute and very articulate.

I just love him!

Thanks for posting! I’m eating up all these Cookie appearances…but my goodness, couldn’t we just let him sleep on the couch? Poor guy. Dear AI publicists, or whoever is pushing him everywhere, please schedule sleep.

David Cook is in a class all by himself.

BRAVO!!!!

Very literate, very intelligent. I cannot imagine David A talking to Leno.

Do all 12 go on tour or just the 10? (Confused)

David Cook – The American Idol: He wears it well.
He is adorable, humble, witty and definitely the HAWTEST Idol ever.
He just looks like a star. I am so happy for him. The future is bright for this man.
My favorite parts of this interview:
“Did you think it was a lame show?”
“No, not at all. Easy!”

“Did you ever run around on camera in your underwear before?”
“Well, never for money.”

I think he is a great representative for the AI franchise: their first rock winner.

When DC used the word “albeit” in this interview, my husband said, “Man, this guy can actually speak well and has a really good vocabulary.” Mightily impressed!

Yeah, he’s Mr. Cool, Mr. Charming and just a delightful interview. And he says he was nervous throughout the competition, but like a pro he never let you see the sweat. Also, I like how’s completely OK with tears, and what he said about learning to knock down the wall and show his vulnerability and emotions.

One thing tho: like MJ, I LOVED “Happy Together,” and am sorry he can’t own it more.

Sure, he gradually got a great fashion makeover and became more and more assured and bold in his performances. But I fell in love with him when he turned that Turtles tune into “rock joint,” and I sill love to watch it because: 1) he sounds great, those terrific sustained notes are gold; 2) I love that deliciously cocky little flirty thing he was doing; and 3) I just like that great old tune, and he made it fresh and irresistible.

I hope that as he goes on to Rock Star Realm, he doesn’t abandon some of that early playfulness we saw!
