“American Idol ‘Fixed,’” Says David Archuleta Mom Lupe Archuleta

If you thought Jeff Archuleta was a problem, you haven’t seen anything yet. Who knew American Idol 7 runner-up David Archuleta had not one but two insane parents. David’s mom, Lupe Archuleta, erupted into a violent tirade, accusing the FOX talent hit of being “fixed,” just moments after her seventeen year old son lost the title to twenty-five year old former bartender David Cook.

“She was very resentful that David Cook took home the title and she wasn’t shy about letting people know how she felt about it,” a backstage spy told the National Enquirer. “She said her son was the clear favorite, and it was obvious that the voting was fixed so that David Cook could win.”

Lupe even complained about the green Ford Escape Hybrid SUV young David won in recognization of his second place finish:

“My David can’t drive that car!” the mother of five told the tabloid insider. “We’re from Salt Lake City-if he drove that car around our town people would recognize him everywhere!”

Last month, David’s father, Jeff Archuleta was banned from the American Idol set after producers complained the rumored “stage dad” was interfering with show rehearsals.
