Speaker 4 (01:41):
People are like, oh, it's going to be so crad.

Speaker 6 (01:42):
I mean, but I have been going to a lot
of EDM festivals over the last year, so I think

Speaker 4 (02:16):
I'm feeling great.

Speaker 6 (02:17):
I'm excited at It's been like over a decade since
I've sung one of my own songs on Idol, so
this will be really fun.

Speaker 2 (02:25):
And I can't believe it's been sixteen years since you
originally competed. What's the one memory six out the most?

Speaker 6 (02:33):
Oh gosh, I would say probably singing Imagine, because that
was the one that the most people come up to
me and still talk about. Like, I didn't realize how
big of a moment it would be thought. I literally
thought I was going to be voted off that week
because it was seventies week. Everyone was singing disco and
rock songs. I was like, oh my gosh, I'm gonna

(02:53):
put everyone to sleep. But it ended up being what
stuck with people the most.

Speaker 2 (02:57):
Well, we're looking forward to hearing you performed, and I
hold on though David to play more music. Yo all
Mario Lopez got David Archiletta on Zoom with me is
performing on American Idol tonight. The new single is Held Together.
What inspired this song?

Speaker 6 (03:11):
Yeah, held Together? It was based off a text I
got from my mom. Actually, because we grew up super
devout to our faith. We grew up Mormon's Latter Day Saints,
and I left. I came out as queer. I tried
to stay true to my faith in my religion, but
it just got to put where I'm like, you know,
this is too much. I'm just gonna step away. And

(03:34):
when and then People Magazine announced it, I wasn't expecting
them to.

Speaker 4 (03:38):
They did, and I was just like, oh shoot.

Speaker 6 (03:42):
I didn't hear from my mom for like three days,
and then I finally get a text from her and
she said, hey, I'm stepping away from the church's wall.
And I was like what, Like we were my job
is dropped? And I was like, what do you mean?
And she said, I don't want to be somewhere where
you don't feel my children don't feel loved and accepted,
and if you're going to hell, then.

Speaker 4 (04:02):
We're all going to hell with you. And I was
really touched by it. So I was like, you know
what I'm going to I'm going to write a song
about that. So I did.

Speaker 6 (04:12):
What up?

Speaker 2 (04:12):
Mario Lopez here David Archiletta on Zoom with me. He
is performing his a new single on American Idol tonight.
So are you thinking about any live shows?

Speaker 4 (04:20):
I will be doing some Pride events. I'm going to
like Wisconsin. Actually I don't know if they've been announced yet.

Speaker 6 (04:32):
But I will be doing some Pride shows and looking
forward to that. I've only done I've done two Prides ever,
Like I've only attended and performed at two Pride events,
and I'm excited to do more. It's a new thing
for me, so I really enjoy it.

and you're also working on a memoir, right, I am, Yeah, fun.

Speaker 4 (05:05):
Working on a book. I'm like working on it today,
like I been writing. It's hard. Like sometimes she's like,
oh gosh, like this is yes.

Speaker 6 (05:13):
I'm not a writer, like a book writer, and so
it's like, oh my gosh, how do you stay focused
to write hundreds of pages? But I do work with
an editor. She lets me write everything. I was like,
I'm like, let me do it by myself because I
was inspired by my friend. Do you know Jeannette McCurdy.
I'm glad my mom died. She was like, we're talking
about life, and she's like, have you thought about writing

(05:35):

My people they're amazing. I think you need to write
a book. And I was like, okay, And so now
I work with the team she worked with. They're amazing
mainstay and Jeanette wrote her book herself. So I was like, Okay,
I'm going to do the same. And it's hard, but
I feel like it's been really worth it. I'm already

like on chapter twenty three right now, and it's been good.

Speaker 5 (06:00):
It was hard to start it, though, yeah.

what's on TV today.

Speaker 3 (06:30):
Max has season five of Ugliest House in America. Tonight,
comedian Retta travels to the Midwest.

Speaker 2 (06:37):
You know when they're visiting these people. I want to

and Paradise.

Speaker 2 (06:51):
We know someone on this A and E debuts.

Speaker 3 (06:54):
Quarter Ton teen, six hundred and seventy pounds. Teenager Justin
Williamson chases his musical dreams while fighting to transform his body.

Speaker 5 (07:03):
You know what, this.

Speaker 2 (07:05):
May come across as a little exploitive, but hopefully it's
inspiring to other heavy kids out there, because that's heavy
yet anyway, but especially when you're a teenagers. Hopefully Justin
God bless him.

Speaker 7 (07:17):
And I love that he's into musicals.

Speaker 2 (07:19):
Go Justin, y'all. Morrow Courtney Lopez, let's put on our
thinking cabs. Time for Courtney's random question, what you got honey?

Speaker 3 (07:27):
Would you rather live in the country's ugliest house, or
drive the country's ugliest car.

Speaker 2 (07:33):
Drive the country's ugliest car. I could care least I
want you spent a lot of time living in the house. Yeah,
unless I was.

Speaker 7 (07:40):
I just tint the window so nobody can see.

Speaker 5 (07:42):
You also hide the car from the garage of the house,
right right.

Speaker 2 (07:46):
I mean if you were an uber driver, then that
might be a little tough for business. Other than that,
I'm going car.

Speaker 1 (07:52):
Tell Morio what do you think? On Twitter? At On
with Mario More Mario Lopez on the.

Speaker 2 (07:57):
Way y' all Morrow Courtney Lopez kicking off a new
sweet to say this week when listening, I guess we'll
whin a spring getaway to Resorts World, Las Vegas. We're
gonna throw an airfare, room for two nights, the FP
passes to Zeke nightclub, dinner for two and more. Resorts
World is one of a kind luxury experience. Big thanks
to them for hooking it all up.

Speaker 3 (08:17):
But there's only one way to enter and get the
rules to head over to arm with Mario dot Com.

Speaker 2 (08:21):
Good luck, what Omaro, Courtney Lopez. Here's a fun fact
about a hit from twenty years ago. Remember the eminem i'minam,
I'm a alm the British version.

Speaker 5 (08:32):
Excuse me?

Speaker 2 (08:32):
Do you remember the Eminem song Stan pretty big video?
At the time he was writing a letter about he
was sort of played the deranged fan. Anyway. Eminem's first
choice to star in the video, McCaulay culkin. M However,
he wasn't available at the time. What the heck was
a mcaulay culkin doing around that time? Tonight Appeter was busy.

Speaker 7 (08:51):
Yeah, wait, who was in the video?

Speaker 5 (08:53):
Wasn't it Devin?

Speaker 2 (08:55):
Was it? I don't remember anyone of No, it was.

Speaker 5 (08:59):
I thought it was Devin Sawa.

Speaker 7 (09:01):
Huh, who's Devin Sawa? I never saw him.

Speaker 2 (09:04):
Ah, that was good.

Speaker 4 (09:07):
I thought, I'm.

Speaker 2 (09:10):
I'm saw Devin Sawa.

Speaker 5 (09:13):
John Mario Courtney Lopez.

Speaker 2 (09:15):
And it sounds like DiCaprio is going to play the
chairman of.

Speaker 1 (09:18):
The board Mario Lopez.

Speaker 2 (09:20):
Hollywood buzz word is Martin Scorsese's next project will be
a biopick about Frank Sinatra. Yes, and Leonardo DiCaprio is
going to be playing Frank. Jennifer Lawrence is going to
be playing his second wife, Ava Gardner. Sinatra's estate hasn't
given his blessing yet, but obviously all the major studios

(09:42):
are interested. I saw an interview with Joaquin Phoenix and
Christian Bale, very talented, good actors themselves, and they said,
we only get the roles that DiCaprio passes on. That's
how big time DiCaprio is. So for him to do
this with Martin Scorsese, I mean, that's that's big time.

(10:02):
And Jennifer Lawren's interesting casting. Now, Frank was already married
when he started his relationship with Ava. He was married
when he started the next one too.

Speaker 5 (10:11):
Their marriage led to a number of well.

Speaker 2 (10:13):
Publicized fights and two aborted pregnancies. So a lot of
drama going on with Frank, who has my favorite all
time nickname.

Speaker 5 (10:23):
For a singer.

Speaker 2 (10:24):
Forget the Boss, Forget the King of Pop, forget all
that chaptain, forget the Captain. Chairman of the board is
wady to go full story?

Speaker 1 (10:33):
Get on with Mario dot Com or with Mario Lopez
coming up.

Speaker 2 (10:39):
Mario Courney Lopez. Here were details on the next Network
TV reboot. This time it is the NBC show Heroes.

Speaker 3 (10:45):
You remember that I do, wasn't zach Quinto in that
the original start? Hayden Pannetier and My Love and Amelia
back in two thousand and six.

Speaker 7 (10:54):
I didn't know he was in that.

Speaker 3 (10:55):
Apparently the new version would feature a new crop of
heroes going against some familiar vill from the first time around.

Speaker 8 (11:02):

talks about his debilitating constipation when he was a child,
and I'm like, dang, Benedict.

Speaker 8 (12:14):
That's why he makes that Critsy makes all the time.
He looks like he's straining or something.

Speaker 2 (12:18):

How for one last thing, I don't know if I
can believe this headline, but Kanye's employees say that when
he threatens them, he speaks in Super Mario voice. I
posted about this, not that I don't believe them, but
I'm gonna need to see some video evidence.

Speaker 7 (16:01):
Because we want to see it.

Speaker 2 (16:03):
Because I want to see it. I want does he
do does he do Chris Pratt doing Super Mario or
does he do Super Mario from.

Speaker 5 (16:09):
The video game?

Speaker 2 (16:10):
It's to me, I'm well, I think.

Speaker 8 (16:13):
I think it's got to be more of the video game,
not Chris Pratt. Otherwise he would just be threatening them
as Chris Pratt.

Speaker 5 (16:18):
That's true, but he does the Woo who?

Speaker 8 (16:20):
Though if the Will Who However, if someone threatened me
in that voice, I think I would just laugh, Like,
is that threatening?

Speaker 3 (16:27):
You might either laugh or be afraid, because yeah, depending
on who, because seems like you're having.

Speaker 8 (16:34):
The context in the environment, it could be actually very
scary for someone who.
