David Archuleta's crazy stage daddy from hell, Jeff Archuleta, has reportedly been banned from rehearsals for "American Idol." TMZ claims that everyone including producers, contestants, the band and the vocal coaches have had it with him.

The straw that broke the Mormon's back came this past week when Jeff wanted to change the lyrics of David's first song "Stand By Me." Jeff wanted David to throw in a verse from Sean Kingston's "Beautiful Girls." The producers denied his crazy ass. Well, David sang it anyway. This created a major problem with the song's publisher and Idol had to pay up.

Lawyers told Jeff that he was banned from all rehearsal rooms. He can attend the live show, but can't go backstage. TMZ also claims Jeff was banned from "Star Search" a few years back when David was a contestant on that show.

No wonder the judges get all wet for David! Jeff probably threatened to flush all of Paula's happy pills down the toilet if she didn't proclaim that his son is the second coming. Paula has no choice!

Seriously, if David Archuleta doesn't win, his face is going to end up on a milk carton. I'm voting for David Cook. Well, I want to see Jeff Archuleta storm the stage and take everyone hostage. Those Mormons can get crazy!



wow. you'd think this kid was the anti-christ with the projectile vomiting going on in here. such venom, people really.

here's what David himself has to say in this week's issue of TV Guide (this despite the fact that he doesn't know how to form sentences and has no opinions of his own):

"I've heard some of the weird things that people have been saying, and it's kind of a bummer," he says, not gigging at all. "I think I, of all people, would know what's going on, and he's been great. He's given me a lot of good advice and helped me from making any dumb decisions. He understands more than anyone what I want in music, and I've felt really blessed to have someone like that.

David seems a bit worked up now. "I don't really care what people say," he continues, "but I know it's affected him and stressed him out." As for reports that his dad withheld water from him during a recording session, the Idol insists, "That's kind of stupid. I'm seventeen. I think I'd be able to stand up for myself if he were to take my water away."

I feel so sorry for that kid. That father is going to drive David to suicide. I'm glad they banned the dad.

I agree!

no wonder they are chasing Daddy off. D2 is

Hmm well I guess the goss on this guy was right on the money. What a fool. He's jeopardizing his son's chance to get what the dumbass dad wants him to have.

Good on AI for making this move.

David Cook for me too.

This little boy needs to lose. As much as I like to read the gossip, I really don't want to see another one crash and burn because of the stage parent from hell

I think it's most telling when they ask little David his opinion about something, and he can never think of anything to say. Daddy has been so controlling, he doesn't have an original thought at this point.

David C. should win on the basis of talent, but who wants to be branded for life as the winner of AI anyway. Let little David take that albatross. His dad probably wouldn't care if he sang on cruise ships and at Disney World the rest of his life, as long as he gets free perks.

I'd love to see David grow up, leave his dad and write a tell-all. That poor kid needs to have his brain expanded.

When you are 18 and your parents are no longer responsible for you then, you are no longer a kid. I am sure there are special cases and that only works with no parents around.

I don't think 17 is a kid.

That said, I feel really sorry for David A. and hope someone helps him escape his father.

Still hope he loses though.

It's actually not pathetic as the only time I feel disdain is when I see him, and I only see him on dlisted (I think American Idol is a joke in many ways).

I stand by my disdain for Mormonism, and make no apologies.

Just the worst kind of person....someone who thinks they run everything and a religious fanati. I tell ya, religion brings out the worst in us all.

I agree with you on all points. I have been an AI fanatic all these years and I usually get more into it as it comes down to the last few, but I could care less now that Jason has left.

He was the only thing that isn't completely stale about AI now.

Besides the fact that I find him totally hot.

Oh man.... I knew his dad was crazy. Poor little David. That's probably why he's so reserved and always looks like he's terrified - he has a crazy dad!

I miss Jason. I refuse to watch Idol now. Jason was hot and funny and the only thing making Idol remotely interesting.. for me, anyway.

ZiggyStardust's picture

Mike, he is still a child.

He does not have the worldly experience to claim any kind of religious affiliation.

Your 'disdain' is unwarranted and pathetic.

A song about David:

Way up in the trees live the Monchichis.
Monchichi Monchichi
They love to laugh and play and have a happy happy day.
Chi chi chi chi Monchichi Monchichi
Monchichi mean happiness!
Oh oh!
But the Grumplins very mean to the Monchichis.
Everyday they tease, try to catch and squeeze.
So back up in the trees go the Monchichis.
Chi chi chi chi Monchichi means happiness!

The kid's Mormon, too? I really didn't need another reason to disdain him.

As I've said before, Mormonism is just Scientology for the Everyman.

He's handsome. I think I saw his pics on Rich kiss.com. And the profile is attractive, sincere and sexy. Maybe it's kidding. Maybe he's lonely? Who knows the fact?

this kid acts like a fucking retard. He reeks of easy listening/christian rock bullshit.

David's a very good singer. I think he sounds like a young George Michael, but I think he'll probably come and go like the majority of the other AI finalists.

Oh no! What will David do now without his daddy to hold his hand?!

The show sucks but David Cook is the most talented out of who is left. That means Sayesha will probably win.

The kid sings "precisely" - like a Stepford Wife's smile. - big hairy ass deal.

I would like to bitch slap this poor kids father. You could tell that after David sang that song he was terrified at what the judges would say, yet he did it because the wrath of his father would have been much worse. Hopefully David A. will win and he makes enough money to move far, far away from this deadbeat.

I feel for this kid too - I hope if he wins, he gets a good lawyer and protects that money from crazy dad. I also hope he is able to move away from him asap.

The poor kid always looks like he's about to cry. His dad is obviously an insecure piece of Chit and uses his sons talents to make him seem like he's more important. I can't stand these parents who whore out there kids to make up for there own insecurities. AI needs to not let him anywhere near the auditions or the show. Hopefully David A. will win and he makes enough money to move far, far away from this deadbeat.

What a scary dad. I was wondering why little David had that freaky super nervous laugh. It is probably how he copes with his crazy dad - heh-heh...heh-heh.
