Wake Up Kansas City!!! David Cook is a d-bag with no talent!!!



It's David Cook Day in Kansas City. Ugh.

Here are the top 10 reasons everyone should discourage any celebration:

10. Does it really matter? If the answer is yes, then you're probably Paula Abdul.

9. He's not even from KC . . . This is a celebration is for a guy from Blue Springs (or wherever) who probably dreamed of leaving that hell hole every minute of his life.



8. If this photo above is any indication, the dude wears lipstick and that's just as creepy as his faux Country music twang style.

7. When the name "David Cook" is mentioned 3 months from now in Kansas City no one will have any idea who you're talking about . . . Example: Has anyone heard from Taylor Hicks?

6. It's just wrong that young white women set the agenda for local news coverage. Can't we at least wait till one of them disappears before handing over control of the airwaves to the affluent white broads?

5. I contend that American Idol is racist . . . I don't know how but give me about 5 minutes and I'm sure I can find something.

4. Almost nobody turned out for the last election, there is WAY MORE interest in this David Cook Dude and for that both you and your children should be slapped.

3. David Cook and the P&L District combined could form an apex of bland, generic entertainment that collapses into itself like some kind of dying supernova. Be careful!!! I'm all for letting the bland lead the bland but this level of douchery could be dangerous.

2. C'mon, please realize there has not been one artist of merit to come from the American Idol TV show . . . It's a TV show for William Hung's sake (!!!) and the mediocre, insipid and marginally talented hopefuls make The Monkees look like David Bowie by comparison.

1. I haven't heard or seen him perform but if he was any good he'd already be on some kind of cell phone or Ipod commercial so I think we can all safely assume the guy isn't worth all of this hoopla.

Jeez, you can be ridiculous some times, Tony. Most telling quote...#1 "I haven't heard or seen him perform but if he was any good he'd already be on some kind of cell phone or Ipod commercial..."

Really? Yet you contradict yourself by calling him "faux country music". Criticizing American Idol is the best way to get a slew of comments (I know from experience), but at least WATCH the show and pass judgment.

Seriously, this is really one of your worse "look at me, look at me" posts in a while.

American idol is racist in the sense that it reflects the attitudes of 13 year old white girls who vote on the show. A few years back after two talented black contestants got kicked off in favor of white jackasses I think it's more rigged than they let on.

Thank you DLC!!! You are the only white man who has ever helped me.

You are a gentleman and a scholar.

Actually, thanks to Shane too for a bit of perspective.

I hate American Idol as much as you (and especially the d-bags who think it's hip when they shorten it to "Idol").

However, Carrie Underwood and Kelly Clarkson are legitimate "artists of merit"

Hating American Idol? Really. How unoriginal.

Geez....You have nothing better to do?? I sure don't see you having any talent at all except obviously being jealous of David Cook. He will make more money, and have more chicks than you could ever dream of. Get a life !

Seriously, Tony- angering American Idol fans is a risky proposition. Like Shane, I've learned the hard way...

So, you just spent 359 words and two digitally manipulated photos to call this guy a douche? The irony is thick on this one, T.

Take comment #5 and replace the words with "Tony Botello." Now we've got something.

Actually, I have been a musician for 40 years and a private singing teacher for 24 of those years. I have performed in many venues and in a variety of styles. I am very picky and critical of musical prowess. You are really incorrect when it comes to David Cook. He is not mainstream. He is brilliant at arranging and writing music that is authentic to his person, no insincerity with him. He has a fantastically beautiful voice that has a multitude of styles and a tremendous range. He is highly intellectual and brings this to his music and performance as well. Another fantastic trait he exhibits is he is absolutely well grounded and is thoughtful of ohters, not full of himself. And yet he has the confidence he needs to make it in this business. Of all the contestants he is the most well rounded and the one who appears to appreciate the judge's comments and realizes the ones from Randy and Simon actually mean the most. Paula is another story.
As far as racist.... how can that even be? Last year, the majority of high ranking gals were African American descent, and the winner is bi-racial. There was a multitude of people in the top 20 with various ethnic backgrounds. Randy Jackson is African American.Racist just does not make sense!!!!!
