Entertainmentoday

It’s hard to believe the American Idol finale is already here. And no surprise that both Davids ended up in the top 2. I actually wish there could’ve been some sort of upset or at least an inkling of surprise, but no such luck. America voted exactly the way I predicted. I’ve been on David Cook’s jock from the get go, so I’m lovin’ the fact that he’s in the finals. I’ve realized the two Davids are like the Clay and Ruben of this season. David Archuleta’s the new Clay — the harmless, shy, yet extremely talented underdog. David Cook’s the resident cutie pie with all the charm and showmanship. Which is why I feel David Cook should be the overall winner, since David Archuleta would undoubtedly follow in Clay’s footsteps as the successful runner-up kid. I felt bad for Syesha since it was obvious she had no chance in going against the two Davids and their massive followings. Then again, she is beautiful and talented and will no doubt be signed like many a losing contestant before her. Watching the results show, you couldn’t help but get a little weepy eyed watching each of them get emotional and overwhelmed during their homecoming segments. The true highlight of the evening for me came when Fantasia hit the stage and gave her usual high energy performance. Dressed in a tight black outfit and fiery red (yes, red!) hair, Fantasia was all over the place. So much so, that when the camera panned to Simon, he obviously didn’t realize that he was literally sitting there with this look of shock and his mouth wide open! PRICELESS! Then he tried to play it off when he noticed the camera was on him. Good Stuff!
