Congratulations David Cook

Posted on May 22nd, 2008 in American Idol | No Comments »

You tore it up and deserved to win. All season long you brought it. And on finale night you delivered. I applaud you.

I am thankful that this American Idol season is finally over. I love the show and the talent but to be honest, it is an amazing distraction. I get so little done during the season because I am so interested in how things are playing out on the show.

I know, I am drama. Stupidity wrapped in the shape of a large man. Whatever.

It is over. I am happy. For me and for David Cook. He can now be added to this list of awesome performers that have graced the American Idol stage:

  1. Kelly Clarkson - 2002 (Runner up: Justin Guarini)
  2. Ruben Studdard - 2003 (Runner up: Clay Aiken)
  3. Fantasia Barrino - 2004 (Runner up: Dianna DeGarmo)
  4. Carrie Underwood - 2005 (Runner up: Bo Bice)
  5. Taylor Hicks - 2006 (Runner up: Katherine McPhee)
  6. Jordin Sparks - 2007 (Runner up: Blake Lewis)
