Dave Cook - Winner of American Idol



Dave Cook won American Idol last night and I have to say I'm not at all shocked about it. Dave Archuleta was the runner up and I'm not sad for him at all because no matter what he's got a name for himself and will definitely have a successful music career. The Dave's are awesome!!!

“I started this season — much to Simon’s chagrin — as the word nerd and I’m absolutely at a loss for words,” Cook told the crowd after hearing the news, referring to his love of vocabulary, which was highlighted in one of his earliest moments on the show. “Thank you guys. This is amazing. Thank you.”

After Ryan Seacrest broke the news, Cook fought back tears as reality set in, but he took a moment to congratulate his final competitor, 17-year-old David Archuleta, of Murray, Utah. The two Davids hugged, and Archuleta raised his arm in congratulations to the season’s winner.

Who did you vote for?

I love both David's. They are excellent, first as people, then as performers... tough call, but, like you said both are gonna shine, so all is good... those kids had a tough season with all the strange songs they had to do... beatles, dolly parton, neil diamond, hey it was like what????? crazy... just crazy... :))))
