David Archuleta became a star when he was just 16 years old. In 2008, more than 30 million television viewers fell in love with his angelic voice and their 44 million votes made him runner-up and fan favorite in Season 7 of American Idol. Since then, he has become a powerhouse unto his own with millions of streams monthly and sold-out shows every year.
We featured David on the cover of Metrosource a little while back (still available at Metrosource.com) and his talk about spirituality and how it fits in with his sexuality incited a lot of reflective thought and your comments. On this episode, we are catching up with David on the heels of vocal surgery, his first major foray into professional musical theater this summer starring as Joseph in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, and the official music video for his latest single, “Faith in Me,” …all this before he starts the tour of his new holiday show, The More The Merrier. We also chat about his continued journey on spirituality and faith, and the conversations he’s had with members of his Church. On a lighter note, we talk about the dating scene and his ongoing “gay education”…with host Alexander Rodriguez.
