It FINALLY happened....
My American Idol fave FINALLY won this year. Every year, I pick the runner up as my fave. Every. Year. Clay Aiken? My pick. Bo Bice? My pick. Blake Lewis? My pick. The only exceptions to the rule were season one, which I didn't watch, and season five when my favorite Chris Daughtry got eliminated in fourth place... but I think we all know how THAT turned out.... (Take THAT, Hicks and McPhee!)
This year, however, David Cook (my favorite Idol contestant EVER) actually won the whole damn she-bang. And not only did he win, but he won by TWELVE MILLION VOTES in the BIGGEST Idol finale ever. Hells yeah, baby.
It was just so beautiful. I mean, HE'S beautiful, but the moment when he won and when he started crying, he was even more beautiful. Everything about that moment was just gorgeous. Just thinking about everything he's been through this season what with the judges licking that OTHER David's boots every week while Cookie took some beatings (from Simon in particular...I will never forgive Simon for making fun of David being a "word nerd." Simon's an idiot. Word nerd=UTTER HOTNESS.) and of course his brother's battle with cancer, I was so thrilled that David and his entire family could celebrate something so wonderful. When his younger brother mouthed into the camera, "That's my brother!" I just about started bawling. So sweet. And as usual, his voice made me melt as he sang his victory song. I absolutely adore him, and I can't even truly express how happy I am for him. Needless to say, I can't WAIT to buy his album, and I'm possibly buying American Idol tour tickets so that I can see him live, if only for a few minutes. *swoon*
Well done, my sweet David C. Well done.
P.S. The duet between David and ZZTop on "Sharp Dressed Man," one of my favorite songs EVER? Absolutely friggin priceless.
