David answered 17 questions for Seventeen magazine and talked about why he is against celebrity crushes, his family, dream job, and guilty pleasures.

1. When was your first kiss?
I haven’t had a first kiss.

2. Who’s your celebrity crush?
I don’t have a crush on anyone yet. I’ve always been against that because it’s like you don’t even know who they are. It’s like when people have a crush on me, it’s just weird when they’ve never even met me. So for me to do that to someone else, it’s kind of weird. I look up to Sara Bareilles, John Mayer, and Jason Mraz.

3. What’s a girl fashion trend that confuses you?
I don’t get those really short skirts.

“I’m just going to go the pop route and find a nice balance between young stuff and those songs I can be expressive with and connect with well,” he said. “I’m really excited. The tour leaves next week, and I’m excited to spend time with the other contestants — being out there, learning how to deal with that situation and gaining that stage experience.”

Our hopes are confirmed! David has officially signed a recording contract with 19 Recordings/Jive Records and in even better news, his album is expected later this year!

In an official statement released today, Archie said, “Signing a contract with 19 Recordings/Jive Records is truly a dream come true. Being a fan of American Idol since season one and admiring the alumni, I am honored and humbled to be a part of that group. I’m really excited to start working on everything.”

Simon Fuller, American Idol creator, was the one who offered the deal, calling him a “genuine pop star”.

This statement couldn’t bear anymore truth, as Jeff Archuleta has stated that David is already busy writing his own songs.

More.

According to various media outlets, the Utah solo show the Archuleta’s were holding this Friday at the E Center has been cancelled due to “contractual obligations”.

“They’re just going to reschedule the event for a later time, When all the minds met, everyone concluded this wouldn’t work out for this particular weekend, and they just want to reschedule it for toward the middle or the end of the [”American Idol” summer] tour. This is the only chance he’s going to get to just thank people, and it seemed appropriate to do so,” Jeff Archuleta told the Salt Lake Tribune.

The proceeds from the “thank you” concert were to go to charities  Make a Wish and Multiple Sclerosis Society

David can still be seen as part of the American Idol tour which stops in Utah on July 14th and 15th. Tickets are still on sale for the second date, the first is sold out.

Moments ago this was reported tonight in a Fanblast chat by Brett:

David will be singing and speaking  to a crowd of around 20,000 people @ the E-Center in Salt Lake City, Utah this Friday June 6th at 7:00 PM.

As a special thank you from David and the Archuleta’s, tickets are just $1.00 and go toward a charitable donation.

The news comes before it was released to the general public. More details will hopefully be announced soon and Fanblast will cover the event.
