Archuleta Took Fellow 'Idol' Finalist Brooke White to His 'Prom'
The day that 17-year-old "American Idol" finalist David Archuleta was meeting with music legend Neil Diamond was the day that all his school pals were going to their prom in his hometown of Murray, Utah.
But it seems fellow finalist Brooke White helped him ease the pain by being his "date" for the day.
"I spent the day with Brooke, so she's the one I danced with for my prom day," he told Pop Tarts after the "Idol" elimination on Wednesday night. "I would have preferred this anyway; it would have been nice to go to prom, but I’m so glad I was here instead. Standing there dancing with Brooke was pretty cool."
Mind you, Archuleta did get other offers.
"[David] Cook also asked if he could dance with me - that was a little awkward," he said. "So I said no."
