Inside American Idol: David Archuleta's Relief, Dedication
by Mischalova at .David Archuleta has never been in the bottom three on an elimination night. And we'd be willing to wager that he never will be.
But, according to People Magazine, the young, popular crooner was shocked when he was sent to the safe sofa this week.
As David walked over to join Jason Castro, also safe, on the couch, he mouthed "wow, wow, wow" to himself, maintaining a look of shock into the break. We don't know why. Of course he was safe, and he'll continue to be until the finals (where we hope he loses out to David Cook).
David Archuleta was reportedly surprised he remained on American Idol this week. Were you?
Also, according to a family friend, Tuesday night's song choice of Neil Diamond's "America" was chosen by Archuleta in dedication to his mom, Lupe, who originally came to the U.S. from Honduras.

The "news" about DA and PD is entirely unsubstantiated except from anonymous, hateful rumor-mongers. Despite their claims there has never been a picture of them together or a reliable quote from someone who actually knows them. The column you are trusting for information is so full of crap you can't wade through it. And if it were true, PD would be in a helluva lot of trouble for taking advantage of a much younger 16 year old. I don't buy it. People, leave this 17 year old boy in peace.

Lisa--if you knew anything about David A you would realize that what you wrote is full of "you know what". Don't pull him down to your level and don't make stupid comments until you know what you are taking about.
okay, he shouldn't be suprised, but I'm not suprised he is. David is just such a humble person that the idea that people are really really in love with him and his voice is a completley foreign idea to him.
