LOS ANGELES — When Ryan Seacrest announced the names of American Idol's
two finalists Wednesday, each thought he was going to hear another's name.
"I couldn't believe it. I thought he was going to say David Cook," says
David Archuleta, 17, named the first finalist as Cook and Syesha Mercado
awaited their verdict
During an interview shortly after the show, Archuleta said: "I just feel like
shock. Am I really in the top two of American Idol?"
Cook, 25, says he thought he would be going home. "I thought my ticket was
punched. I honestly did," he says. "Syesha is an amazing performer, and she
really hit her stride in the last two, three, four weeks."
Each singer already is working on three songs for the final performance
Tuesday (Fox, 8 ET/PT). "For me, it's going to be taking a week to prepare
myself to be as strong as possible," Cook says. "I've really pushed myself
this season vocally and musically. It's going to be a matter of taking a
step back and making sure I can prepare myself amid the chaos that's going
to ensue this week."
Archuleta will continue heeding advice from judge Paula Abdul: Have fun.
"I've been doing a lot of slower stuff. I love the slower stuff, but I just
need to show I can have fun on stage," says Archuleta, who picked
Chris Brown's uptempo With You to sing this week. "It was a song where you
showed all the stuff you can do (vocally)."
Archuleta says he wasn't distracted this week by the controversy surrounding
his father, Jeff, who is no longer allowed in the room when his son is
rehearsing. Even with that, Archuleta says, his dad "always gives his opinion.
… Syesha was next to me, and she was talking to someone, saying, 'What do
you think about this, what do you think about trying this out?' It's the same
kind of thing."
He calls absurd a report that his father's pressure had made him cry, and
he says such stories "were kind of weird. I tried to stay away from (those
stories). I think I would know of all people what my dad was like. … He's
a great guy. Just to know he's my dad and how much he looks out for me is
really cool."
Although the final songs haven't been revealed, Cook will sing first.
Archuleta won a coin flip taped after Wednesday's show, and chose to sing
second. He says he wasn't thinking about the disadvantage of singing first
on Idol, which has been borne out by statistical analysis and has been
referred to as a "jinx."
Only one can win, but the finalists praise each other. "I've always looked up
to Cook and admired all the work he's done with his talent," Archuleta says.
"To be here standing next to him is just unbelievable."
"I consider it a huge honor to share the stage with the kid. He's the real
deal," Cook says. "All the buzz coming in, he deserves."
