David Archuleta,
David Archuleta made a pretty big announcement about his personal life at a concert in Utah last night ... but to people who know the guy, it probably wasn't that shocking.
The former "American Idol" runner-up told his home crowd ... that he's ... (wait for it) ... putting his music career on hold for two-years to fulfill a full-time mission with the Mormon church!!
20-year-old Archuleta explained, "It's not because somebody told me that I was supposed to do it, not because that I no longer want to do music anymore, but it's because it's the feeling that I felt that I need to do next in my life."

When is the announcement that he's gay? And doesn't he get in trouble for that in the Mormon church? I'm sure he's suppressing that hard so he won't be kidnapped and given shock treatments like that one guy, and that's never good. By the time he's 25 he'll be a raging alcoholic.Reply Likes 2 Dislikes 3 Clear Vote 1 Reply Loading Replies...
I commend him on doing what he feels is right for him. Not letting money and fame get in the way of your calling is admirable. Reply Likes 3 Dislikes 0 Clear Vote 1 Reply Loading Replies...
Bad decision, kid. You need to do this because your shelf life at music is limited. There will be a ton of music acts that will come in to replace asap. NOBODY will remember you in 2 years.Reply Likes 1 Dislikes 2 Clear Vote 7. FloridaGirl:
In 2 years, he may as well start over with his music career. No one will know who he is. Can't he sing for the Mormons and raise money for the church that way? God gave him a talent, not just to let sit idol...seems like a waste to win Idol, and go through the stress for nothing.Reply Likes 2 Dislikes 2 Clear Vote 5 Replies Loading Replies...
DAMN, YOU MEAN HE'S NOT GAY??? WHAT A LET DOWN. THE WORLD JUST LOST A BET. TWO FREAKIN YRS, LOL... NO ONE KNOWS WHO HE IS NOW LET ALONE IN 2 YRS. HE'S DONE. DUDE WILL JUST BE A FOOTNOTE IN SOME FUTURE WIKI ENTRY ABOUT EPIC FAIL IDOL DISASTERS. #TRUTH!!Reply Likes 2 Dislikes 1 Clear Vote 2 Replies Loading Replies...
Closely check out photos of him on this current tour. He's been wearing the Mormon undergarments (underwear) under very tight jeans since the tour began. You can't miss them. David has become increasingly fanatical this year. Everything he is running from will all be there when he gets back.Reply Likes 0 Dislikes 1 Clear Vote 1 Reply Loading Replies...
i hope they send him somewhere in europe so he can get the door slammed in his face everywhere he goes. These sops get converts in 3rd world countries, but not so much in first and second world countries. All religions are cults... but the ones that advocate invading a person's privacy to proselytize REALLY suck.Reply Likes 1 Dislikes 1 Clear Vote 13. LIsa:
To be honest, almost a relief that he goes. He has become increasingly fanatical this year and many fans are sick of hearing about the LDS church. We did not sign up for this when we became his fans. Oh well -- he's got what he wants -- he's married to the church.Reply Likes 1 Dislikes 1 Clear Vote 14. KicksandGiggles:
Wow, a performer with integrity & commitment to his beliefs. And on TMZ to boot! Peace & Blessings David! We will be waiting!Reply Likes 2 Dislikes 1 Clear Vote 15. Violet:
I'll miss him a lot. I'm a big fan of his singing and also the person that he is. But he has a strong and loyal fanbase and we'll be waiting for his return. I'm proud of him for following his heart.
