Can this picture mean anything but an extended run for American Idol Should-have-been-winner David Archuleta in Wicked? Congratulations on your inevitable Broadway Debut, Porkchop!

I'd be more amused to see him in The Book of Mormon since he is Mormon.

A boy who is 5' 3" playing Fiyero? TOTALLY.

I'd like to see him play Boq in the film adaptation.

No picture. No question mark.

After looking around it seems as if he saw the show in UT, which is interesting. I had a Mormon boss who was booking shows in NYC and Wicked was one show he and his family could not see because of the witches and witchcraft.

No question mark because there is no question. The ONLY question is whether the Tony Award will revive their "Best Replacement" Tony for him.

Put a 2" heel on his boots and away we go. Yet another triumph for this multi-talented lad.

I'd like to see David Cook try to equal that!

It is rather hard to decipher his message of "Saw this tonight." while posed in front of the Wicked poster. So, I'll go out on a limb and say he took that because he went to see Wicked?

Are pictures just not working on the boards now? How come none of them are showing up?

Works fine for me. I don't think he knows how to do it correctly.

There should be a tutorial thread on how to properly embed images without having to use the "optional image" feature. I know it can be done but have no idea how.

No idea why the pics aren't showing up- I trust David will have no such problems in his Broadway debut.
Meanwhile you can see them here.

Some sites will put a protection of sorts on their photos that blocks them from being embedded on other sites.

I ceased watching IDOL somewhere around Archuleta's era. But I remember how often the judge's would use "Broadway" as a pejorative to describe the singing. As if the use of some sort of combo of legit technique/sound and lyric interpretation diluted the pop sensibility. Especially today, ridiculous. Randy in particular often landed on "too Broadway" to measure a performance. It now seems faintly ludicrous, considering how many IDOL folk have landed here. If anything, the show funneled the people into the theater. If anyone cares to make a list, it will make Randy's remarks appear even dumber than they sounded on-air.

He is indeed a very handsome young man. The type of guy Galinda and Elphaba would both love to call their own.

Galinda for sure, since he needs that makeover.

This thread is clearly a joke though. If not, it's very creepy that someone has designated a Tony to a person who has never and will never even play the role. Unless you're his manager, then it's fine.
