American Idol 7 Finale Red Carpet Thread.. David Cook Wins!

[chisnpeke]

Check out some posts from AI's forums -

"ITS BEEN AN HOUR AND I CAN'T STOP THE TEARS!!! HE DESERVED THIS ARCHIES!!! I KNOW HE IS A WINNER NO MATTER WHAT BUT IT STILL HURTS THAT HE DIDN'T WIN WIN"

"Archies. I can't do it - I can't contain myself. I had gotten my hopes up so high for an Archuleta win. I had invested so much of my life and time into this and I know it's not the end of the world, but... I can't help it. We've done so much, he's done so much. He knocked every song out of the park last night and ARGH. :[ :[ :[ I'm so distraught Archies..."

"I cannot stop crying. I never knew how much I admired Archie until now. I was positive that David would win, but they said Cook and I started bawling. I have never cried in response to TV, but this was too much for me. David will always be the true winner to me. He had an amazing moment last night and NO ONE can ever take that away from him. He is still my favorite singer."

Whoa girlies, settle down. I know we're all DC nuts around here but I don't think we would've reacted quite like this! Of course we all are over the age of 18 so I guess that makes a difference. I understand being bummed, but these poor girls are devastated!

Yea some of them are insane.

Well...I have four DC songs, one Archie songs that was gifted to me today from a girl on AI forums, and four MJ songs. Plus Shout to the Lord from IGB.

I also bought two of Michael's videos and two of the group performances, I look forward to watching them as we drive out west this summer.

I got my wife all the good DC performances as well as all the MJ performances, and some from Brooke, Carly, and Jason. I also got her Analog Heart. I'll be hearing DC songs for a long time. MJ better put out an awesome album so I can counter.

We just have to remember most of the Archie fans aren't as mature as Tigg. This would be devastating to them. I know my DD would have been very upset if DC lost. I know she'll go back to school to a bunch of friends who won't be happy. She was one of the only DC fans in 3rd grade.

Should I buy MJ's stuff that wasn't studio recorded? The only studio recording I didn't buy was A Day In the Life because I already have The Beatles version. But I already have some of the songs DC sang too so idk.

I have MJ's old bands albums. Both are good. And I have MJ's independent album. I had to illegally download though because it's not for sale.

I'm so excited DC won!!! I knew when Simon apologized that he had to have won! I'm so glad we stayed up late voting last night,ladies - it was worth it!!

I'm bummed because since the show went 5 minutes over, my tivo shut off at 10pm! Luckily it cut off literally right after Ryan says "David Cook"!

My mom called me...all she heard was that the winner was "David Co...." Haha.

Definitely worth it!

But my voting hang-over is still killing me! My head hurts, my arm hurts, my throat hurts from screaming...... I guess I'm going to go watch the show again. This time I will actually be able to hear it over my racing heart!

See you tomorrow!!!!

There are some insane DC posters as well. Not here, of course. I might think that stuff, but some of those fangirlies actually type it out.

 

[HoneyBee06]

I wonder if Analog Heart will become available again.

 

[chisnpeke]

Definitely worth it!

(May 21) -- Luke Menard, who made it to this season's top 16 of 'American Idol,' has announced that he has been diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma.


Former 'American Idol' contestant Luke Menard has announced that he's battling stage Hodgkin lymphoma, but has been told that it's "treatable and manageable."

CBS News reports that a representative for the singer's a capella group said that Menard "had a lingering cough and was having trouble breathing deeply, so he went to the doctor to have it checked out." Initially diagnosed as walking pneumonia, a chest x-ray "led to the stage II Hodgkin diagnosis."

Doctors have told the 29-year-old singer that his condition is "treatable and manageable."

There are insane ones in every group.

I can't believe how crazy people get over famous people. It's stupid actually.

Yea some of them are insane.

I'll let you in on a little secret. Those tears manifest themselves about as much as an LOL. These youngin's are always writing about their emotions whether or not theu're experiencing them.

Drama Drama Drama.
