Is David Archuleta Gay?
Posted by: In: David Archuleta| Gay Artists| Gay Celebrities| Gay Poll ()
After Danny Noriega’s elimination from American Idol Season 7, the gay community may have lost a teeny bit of interest on the show. Who will reprizant yo? David Hernandez, whose image was scandalized because of photos of him working as a stripper for a gay club, was going to be the contest’s remaining gay icon. But sadly, he too was eliminated.
This brings us to the numerous discussions online that America may not be ready yet for a gay American Idol. Or are they really? Many of our gay friends have now turned their attention on this other boy in the contest – David Archuleta.
David is the current favorite to win the show, we all know that. And if he does, then many gay men, like I, will be very happy. This 17-yeard old boy has become a favorite because of his great vocal prowess and probably because even if he has had vocal chord paralysis, he still sings that well!
Online discussions and forums have been talking about David not only because of his singing prowess but also because of his perceived sexuality. Many people think that David Archuleta is gay, many don’t. And some people argue that David just appears to be gay because of his youth. We do not know if he’s gay or not, really. And it really does not matter.
So is he really? I cannot answer that question for you. Instead, I will give you some information that may help you answer this age-old idol-favorite question: Is David Archuleta Gay? (Decide after the jump.)
1. STAR SEARCH
We all know that Archulletes (I like calling him that) used to be a contestant on Star Search, as a very young boy. Below is a video of one of his performances in the contest. You might also be interested in his bio on the show, which we got from CBS:
