David Cook
IT'S FINALLY OVER!!!! Oh yeah... and David Cook Wins. We Must Have Cursed Gaspy. Haha.
The Fix is In for David Cook- David Archuleta's Voice Coach Fills Us In
If David Archuleta's voice coach can be believed, he wants everyone to know that the fix is in. Voice coach Dean Kaelin said in a Fox Utah interview that the producers really rigged things last week to help David Cook. Dean says that the producers asked David to sing his best song first, while David Cook was told to sing his best song last so that the audience would remember it better. Gaspy also practiced singing "Longer" with an uptempo beat but was then told by producers that he had to sing it slower. Why? Probably because it might have sounded better that way. Lastly, Gaspy was going to sing "I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing", which had been cleared for him for a few weeks, but the song was taken away afrom him and given to David Cook. Dean also says that Syesha wanted to use strings (probably the full orchestra that David Cook used) in one of her songs and was told she couldn't. Who got to use the strings? David Cook of course. We believe Dean, because Idol is a shady show that does whatever it can to get the reults it wants. But what can Gaspy do (see picture for his options)? If the fix is in, the producers will stop at nothing to crown Cook. All we can do is expose the madness and try to help our gasping friend.
David Cook's Album Pulled from Amazon
After David Cook sold tons of copies of his album "Analog Heart" on Amazon.com this past week, the album has mysteriously disappeared from the site. Actually, it's not mysterious at all. David can't sell his own music while on the show, an always-in-place Idol rule. The only people who got around this were Constantcrap Maroulis and Chris Sligh, whose ex-bands sold the music using the workaround that the singers were no longer members of the band. David Cook was the last non-plant in the competition, but the fact that he is being pimped so heavily at this point and pulling stunts like this makes us wonder if he's more planty than we expected. Though the article gets a good jab in at Carly: "That girl always looked like her head was about to explode when she was singing." So true. So true.
David Cook was in the Hospital Last Night
Apparently David was feeling heart palpatations and was taken to the hospital where he was treated for high blood pressure. Hopefully it's nothing too serious. We like to make fun of the contestants, but obviously we don't wish bad health upon them.
We'll save you the trouble
The performance David stole this week was Chris Cornell's version of "Billie Jean."
