American Idol’s David Archuleta Swears “You’re the Voice” Was His Choice!

David-Archuleta-Courtesy-RealityTVMagazineLay off already, Simon! David Archuleta swears his latest song choice was his choice, and he’s stickin’ to it!

During this week’s performance, Simon Cowell made a comment that he’d “be surprised” to find that Archuleta’s song choice of John Farnham’s “You’re the Voice” was chosen by the young Idol singer himself. The comment was clearly a nod to recent rumors that Archuleta’s father, Jeff, is an ultra-tough “stage dad,” who rules his son with an iron fist.

Rumors contend that Jeff was a tyrant when David was a contestant on Star Search — so much so that he was eventually banned from the lot. And, according to Star Search “sources,” the elder Archuleta even harassed his son’s Star Search rival, Tiffany Evans (who eventually went on for the win over David).

But regardless of what people might be surmising, David insists that ”You’re the Voice” is one of his “favorite songs,” and he’s “confused” why there’s any speculation that he might not have chosen the song himself.

American Idol airs on Tuesdays and Wednesdays on FOX.
