David Archuleta
Catch Your Breath, Gaspy... You're the New VFTW Pick!
Posted by thefunnystone on May 8, 2008 - 6:45pm
We've gotten tons of letters saying that David Archuleta better not win American Idol. He's annoying, he can barely form a coherent sentence without gasping for air and laughing nervously, he sings the same thing every week while getting more nervous, he forgets the words on a regular basis, and he's controlled by his obnoxious stage dad. So wait... that makes him the worst. Hey, there we go! Obviously less talented and less marketable than Syesha and David Cook, Gaspy is the new VFTW pick! Sure he's annoying, but that's why he's perfect. Most of America does not want him to win. Imagine an Idol winner who couldn't aspire to be much more than a less-talented Clay Aiken. Imagine an Idol winner whose press tour would take 20 minutes to answer a single question. And just imagine the type of sappy ballad that the producers already have lined up for David to record, dripping with extra cheese and terrible melisma. We smell failure! Hopefully this won't get him locked in his cage for another night. Break free, Gaspy. Break free. As an added bonus, if you sing Lil Mama's "Lip Gloss" this week, we'll love you forever. Who's working the strings now? Daddy? The producers? Or VFTW?
Stage Dad Jeff Archuleta Says He's Not a Stage Dad
Posted by thefunnystone on April 25, 2008 - 1:32pm
Jeff Archuleta talked to US Weekly to defend himself against Naomi Judd's assertions that he's "the worst stage dad." The interview is incredibly lame... Jeff is basically saying, "What? I have no idea what a stage dad is so I couldn't be one. I am a great parent." Of course you'll say that. We believe none of this. Partially because Jeff is creepy looking and partially because Naomi Judd has no reason to make this up. She has nothing to gain. Let's get more behind the scenes stories from people about Dadzilla please. VFTW is the voice of truth, so if you know anything about this and would like us to post about it, e-mail us at mail@votefortheworst.com. Free the Lizard Boy from his cage!
Naomi Judd Talks about David Archuleta's Awful Stage Dad

Skip to 3:35. Naomi Judd talks about how horrible David Archuleta's stage dad was when she was a judge on Star Search. Poor kid, he was probably locked in his cage after he wasn't sure what to do when Seacrest asked him to pick a side. We'll send food soon, David!
See if you can make it through the whole video. If you do... you are a far bigger masochist than I. Scary and sad at the same time.
Just in case you haven't noticed what we've been pointing out for weeks, a fantard made a video of David Archuleta and his ridiculous habit for sticking his tongue out during his performances. It was funny in a terrible way so we had to post it here. To make his performances bearable in the future, just watch and count how many times he sticks his tongue out to lick his lips. It's way funnier than actually listening to him overmelismafy aother song. Now if only someone would make a video of all of the times he takes big, loud gasps during his songs.
David Archuleta's Stage Dad Has Idol Connections
Posted by thefunnystone on March 12, 2008 - 11:19pm
Rumors are circulating that David Archuleta (pictured, left, grinning stupidly with a puppy) is dealing with his dad Jeff Archuleta, the stage dad from hell. But besides the fact that Jeff probably pushes his kid way too hard, he has previous Idol connections. His cached Loopwise page states that his company Arch Music Group has "spent the last 5 years working with American Idol and Star Search performers as well as young up and coming singers and songwriters who want to compete in the top 40 arena." Well we know he probably counts his son as the Star Search performer, but the Idol connection is interesting. As if David didn't already have the previous connection where he met with Idol producers during season one, now his dad has been working with show contestants. We'll do some more digging and let you know what we find out. This season of Idol is like a giant forest... of suck.
The always hilarious folks at The Soup parodied our site this week and showed us just how much Danny "wasn't likin" being voted of Idol. Oh yeah, that stripper guy and the asthmatic kid is in it too. Check it out!
American Idol is idiotic enough to start the American Idol Live Hotline (323-874-7777). If you call, the voicemail asks for a question you'd like to ask the contestants or judges. It also asks you to leave a phone number so they can call you back. They want to get someone to ask a question live on the air. So feel free to call and attempt this with a fake question, and then switch it up to a VFTW question when you're live! Of course, the "live callers" will probably all be production staff pretending to be callers. So do what we've done so far and just leave the hotline a bunch of funny messages such as
"Did you (GASP) notice that (GASP) David Archuleta (GASP) does this annoying (GASP) gasping (GASP) this during his (GASP) performances?"
"Hey Hernandez, I've got 20 singles with your name on them. Shake it over this way, sweet cheeks."
"Hey Brooke White, this is He-Man. You'll never conquer Eternia. And eat a cheeseburger while you're at it."
Remember, we may not make it on the show, but they still have to go through all of our messages and listen to each one.
