American Idol producers have pulled the plug on a hometown charity concert by Season Seven runner-up David Archuleta. According Archuleta’s agent, Roger Widynowski, the Back Home With David Archuleta concert, originally scheduled for Friday night in Salt Lake City, was cancelled over “contractual obligations.” Technically, Idol contestants are not permitted to participate in an non-show related events until the Idols Live Tour wraps up in September.

“They’re just going to reschedule the event for a later time,” Jeff Archuleta told the Salt Lake Tribune. “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 Idols Live! summer] tour.”

Seventy-five cents of each $1 ticket sold would have benefited the Multiple Sclerosis Society and Make-a-Wish Foundation.
