Simon Fuller, creator of the popular singing competition series and chief executive and founder of 19 Entertainment Label Group, added: "It was fascinating to watch David's journey through 'Idol.' He is a genuine pop star, and is a gifted singer who instantly won over a huge audience when he first appeared on the show. Since then, he has dealt with the pressure and the high level of expectation with real fortitude; he's given us some of the best performances of the season. Without question David Archuleta has a great future ahead of him."
