David Archuleta has Filipino lineage?
There’s a lot of buzz going around that American Idol season 7 contestant David Archuleta has Filipino lineage.

This has yet to be confirmed on the show or on the official idol web site. According to the google’s cached page of TV.com’s page of David Archuleta, David is “Hispanic Filipino” but as of this posting, it has been changed to “Hispanic American“. We’ve also read that a local television station here in the Philippines reported that he is Filipino but didn’t elaborate on the report’s source. The reason that we want to know is because if he’s really Filipino then we should feature his performances here on Mukamo just like what we do with Ramiele Malubay (who is definitely Filipino). Anyway, here’s David Archuleta’s rendition of John Lennon’s Imagine. But Filipino or not, David is a serious contender for the title of American Idol 7.

February 28th, 2008 at 10:50 pm
if david’s not a filipino
them we should blame qtv channel 11.
i just remembered that they were the 1st local tv network
mentioning david being a filipino
in their show news on Q…
an erratum should be made, if that’s the case…
February 28th, 2008 at 10:52 pm
that’s “then” not “them”
February 29th, 2008 at 4:57 pm
He’s half Honduran (Honduras). As much as I like him to be Filipino (coz I am one), he’s not.
here’s my very trusted source

you knew what david i thought your a good boy but then i was really disappointed…even philippines has too much problem thats not enough idia for you to say that you dont want to be a filipino.Good Remiele i knew you will win i pray for your success.nice day
March 1st, 2008 at 3:12 pm
he’s good based from what i’ve watched in the past weeks of american idol he was one of the great contender…..but i think he’s gay…..!11based from his moves the way he laughed…that was just a speculation…how most of my friends are gay and some our closet gay their attitude and doings as well have the same things with my friends.
anywyzzzzzzzzzzzz…….i love him…!
March 1st, 2008 at 11:33 pm
i dont care if he’s a filipino,he’s not proud to be one,hndi sya kawalan sa lahing pinoy…sna nga manalo c ramiele,sya ang tunay na pinoy,mabuhay ka ramiele…
March 1st, 2008 at 11:36 pm
c randy jackson ata may lahing pinoy,nkatira ata sya dati sa zambales…
March 2nd, 2008 at 3:21 am
who cares if he’s not filipino. If he is one, then he should be proud just like Ramielle. If he’s embarrassed by it then too bad–filipinos are really great singers.
but i have to say.
Ramielle is doing a great job being proud to be filipina. Jasmine nor Camille Velasco didnt really tell the whole world that they have Filipino blood(they were more into the Hawaiian thing). At least this time–Ramielle is proud to represent not only the Filipinos…but take note the Asian community.Props to Ramielle– The United States is full of Asian people.
March 2nd, 2008 at 2:27 pm
Sna pinoy tlga pra dag2 karangalan^^,
magkabirthday pa kmi, hehehe,
Sna mrunong karin mag-tagaLog, hehehe.

Da Best=)
March 2nd, 2008 at 5:14 pm
wag ng pakialaman ang mga Pinoy na di marunong magtagalog.
mas proud pa ako kay vince bueno kasi diretso magtagalog, tsaka proud OFW ang parents nya. sya ang dapat suportahan at ipagmalaki
March 3rd, 2008 at 10:16 am
I’ve watched A.I.’s opening number last friday and in fairness ramielle and david look gud together coz’ they both have such cute statures
March 3rd, 2008 at 5:06 pm
hispanic filipino? filipino is hispanic na nga.. how redundunt…
March 4th, 2008 at 1:21 am
He’s half Honduran.
March 5th, 2008 at 9:10 am
He so cute when he cried, after alexandrea’s elimination… Maybe they are really bestfrieds! even if he’s not a filipino, I still love him.. He is phenomenal! Gud Luck David…!
March 5th, 2008 at 2:10 pm
to david a:
if you are ashamed of being a filipino, you may have some bases… we are just unlucky we are born filipinos, or lucky? only time tells, God knows when…
March 5th, 2008 at 11:07 pm
to david a. :
we filipinos have so much to be proud of… what you have said may be true but they are not the only things that makes us Filipino… the Philippines is just not lucky to have good leaders…
March 7th, 2008 at 11:55 am
if david is not a filipino,fine then…we filipinos have many people to be proud of.not only him…but if he’s filipino,i’m dissapointed that he is ashamed of being a filipino(what’s the problem of being one?) but it’s okay… i’m still a david archuleta’s certified fan…hehehehe…go David!
March 7th, 2008 at 11:57 am
by the way…I forgot… go ramielle!go!go!go! good luck!
March 7th, 2008 at 1:01 pm
People, they are not FILIPINOS they are AMERICANS they or their parents have denounced their Filipino citizenship already so why bother knowing? You cannot be proud by that fact alone eh?
March 7th, 2008 at 11:55 pm
whoever said filipino is hispanic is mistaken, although filipino has lots of spanish roots, filipino is considered pacific islander..if anything david is south american such as from chile as some are saying here OR central american if he’s from honduras, he certaintly does not strike me as being filipino, Now danny noreiga is a different story, he looks part filipino…
March 8th, 2008 at 5:41 am
david a….if ur not a real filipino…just dont say any comment…u might hurt us….we luv u…i know u will be d next american idol 7…ur d best….keep it up….i will pray for u…especialy for ms, malubay…im proud of u….
March 8th, 2008 at 5:44 am
go go…ms malubay…fight…aja…hehehe….ur d best….luv u…
March 8th, 2008 at 6:46 am
I’m a Filipino and proud to be one. I know how nationalistic we are and become even more proud of those with Filipino lineage making a name in the international arena. But I sort of feel a bit embarrassed for those who claim that so-and-so is a Filipino when in fact he is not. Before making a claim, please confirm it. Let’s grow up.
March 9th, 2008 at 12:50 am
if david a. really has filipino blood then that’s great, but really, it all comes down to whoever can sing best and who can win the crowd. plus i don’t think that the “david a.” who posted some of his/her comments on here is the real deal, so try not to think of david that way. I’m proud to be Filipino. It would be nice for Ramiele to win (pinoy pride!) but I do have to be honest and say that I am rooting for David because I think he has a very wonderful voice + he is also overflowing with charisma. in any case, may the best guy/girl on AI win!
March 9th, 2008 at 10:37 am
hey, why so concerned of race? there is nothing to be proud of being filipinos because we have been known to have corrupt leaders who never leave the seat of power except by coup detat or revolution!!! to david a: if you are digusted of being filipino, i understand the crises, your identity crises… me? disgusted also, because being a filipino means having to live with the stigma that our leaders are corrupt and will forever be corrupt and will cling to the power no matter what, till death do them part….
March 9th, 2008 at 5:36 pm
all i can say is god is only the one who knows whats the truth! its just up to the person if they will be proud of it. do not judge people!
March 9th, 2008 at 5:40 pm
I am very ,very proud for being a filpino! all of s must be prod of it!
March 10th, 2008 at 6:28 pm
david was and is great..very young, very promising..great talent!
March 11th, 2008 at 2:45 pm
I ♥ Daviid. :x

March 15th, 2008 at 6:14 pm
oops…. he’s not chilean-american…. Official websites says he’s HONDURAN-AMERICAN…. Her mom is from Honduras, her dad is from USA…. Her mom might probably be of filipino descent but still unconfirmed…
March 19th, 2008 at 10:41 am
I am a Filipino, I am very proud of being a filipino. Go Ramielle.
March 19th, 2008 at 4:04 pm
I think he’s not Filipino.
However, if he does have Fil blood and he’s not acknowledging it…
I dont care.
If he doesnt want to be one, then so be it… Go and be like Vanessa Ann Hudgens (she never cared about her roots…)
Go Ramiele!
March 19th, 2008 at 8:35 pm
hey david u say u do not want to be a filopino because of the current sitution then what do u think abt the ppl livin in pakistan
March 20th, 2008 at 1:14 am
People, get a life!
David is happy of who he is, Ramiel is happy of she is. Their identities or lineage is none of you business and it is not important. What can you benefit from that. Recognition? Give me a break!
You should be focusing on how to give back to your country and its welfare. Enough said.
March 22nd, 2008 at 2:21 pm
HI
March 22nd, 2008 at 2:23 pm
if ramiele do win,i hope its not because shes a filipino,but because she deserves it

March 25th, 2008 at 12:06 pm
Randy Jackson is a Filipino too, I heard. And oh yeah let’s not forget Brian Dunkleman from Season 1 American Idol he is Fil-Am.
March 25th, 2008 at 5:35 pm
To all Filipinos: Why do you deny the fact that our country is flawed, full of selfish people? I mean it is human nature to be selfish? If you truly love our countrymen, you will not be ashamed of admitting this to yourself!!!
To all non-Filipinos: Mind your own business!!! Your countries have problems too. You have senators, congressmen, etc. involved in sexual scandals and corrupt acts!!! You all need a whipping!!!
TO DAVID: Ah yes!!! David!!! How are you with Jonathan? Is Saul still jelous of your relationship with his son? Gosh!!! Remember, don’t go bare! It’s dangerous!!! hahahahahahhahahaha
TO DAVID ARCHULETA: Wow!!! I love your performances!!!
March 27th, 2008 at 2:07 pm

March 29th, 2008 at 7:07 pm
to david a. :
will you please stop criticizing Philippines! please criticize first your country before you criticized other. If you really hated our country then please don’t bother to criticized it anymore…..Try to look in to our brighter side…if you can’t appreciate it, then SHUT UP!
TO DAVID ARCHULETA and RAMIELLE MALUBAY: Good luck! Two
thumbs up to both of you!!!! n_n
March 31st, 2008 at 9:02 am
David is NOT Filipino, if he was and he’s not proud of it, who cares? but he’s not. He is Honduran – American. Whether they say he’s Filipino, whatever, we still love him. GO DAVID ARCHULETA! c:
April 1st, 2008 at 2:50 pm
I don’t think so, but I’m still proud of him! Arch Angel Forever!!
April 22nd, 2008 at 9:50 pm
And you actually believe that is David Archuleta typing? It’s called an IMPERSONATOR. David wouldn’t be typing in front of his computer. He would have been rehearsing.
May 5th, 2008 at 12:33 pm
ms shannon a is right. duh. didnt it crossed ur minds dat he is not the one who is typing hir. its an IMPERSONATOR. he’s in a contest, fighting and for sure he will not say those for he knows that he will be intrigue once hell say it. so people stop arguing . it is just a simple matter & ur making it so complicated.
even he is a filipino or wat. who cares?
to the IMPERSONATOR up there:
just shut ur mouth and stop pretending ur david a.
To the REAL DAVID ARCHULETA:
i love ur voice, its enchanting:) hope youll win. God bless:)
May 16th, 2008 at 8:43 am
David’s mom is 100% Honduran but his dad is a red headed Caucasian. The funny thing is that the last name Archuleta comes from the Basque region of Spain. The first settlers with that last name started arriving in the America’s during the 1500’s. Some settled in South America and in the U.S. region that is now New Mexico, later they spread to areas such as New Orleans, California, Colorado and Utah. He’s more Hispanic than his folks even know.
May 16th, 2008 at 10:24 am
yeah i am a filipino,,, and it’s better than david’s a honduran… because being a filipino means groping on your black future if you dont work your ass to the max… congrats david a that u r not a filipino…
May 21st, 2008 at 6:02 pm
wala bang nakakapansin na mali ang grammar ng nagpapanggap na David a.? Seriously, this is written english and i think that if he were the real David A. then the grammar shouldn’t be that bad and will have the sensibility to check his grammar. Just because his surname is hispanic, it doesn’t mean that he’s Filipino.
And to the David A: Ilagay sa lugar ang pagaambisyon.
May 22nd, 2008 at 11:21 am
what does it matter if he’s filipino or not jeez. in the end we’re all the same anyway. i don’t get why some people get super excited to find out if a famous or a rising star has filipino lineage even if it’s just 1percent or something, can’t they find anyone to praise in the country anymore? national artists anyone? why praise someone as bringing the philippines glory when that person was obviously raised elsewhere with a different background and can barely speak tagalog. i don’t think it’s considered un-nationalism if he barely acknowledges he’s lineage since he’s a citizen of a different country and therefore serves a different nation.
May 22nd, 2008 at 5:01 pm
to david a.
who the hell cares if u dnt want to be a filipino? idont want to be you either.
youre a stereotype and you have a very narrow way of thinking.
its not your country that makes you who you are, its how you make yourself..
and i think youre just someone who has no life and have nothing else better to do but to criticize people..
i pity you.
…
it would have been great iif archuleta was fil. but all that matters is hes a great singer and hes very cute and innocent looking..hehe.
May 27th, 2008 at 2:59 pm
sabi s wikepedia he has filipino lineage.. s mother side.. kaya we should also be proud of him..
May 27th, 2008 at 3:14 pm

The poster “david.a” I doubt it could “real”ly be David A. haha, no way am I gonna believe that he could write in that fashion.
June 2nd, 2008 at 1:06 pm
hi .. i think ur not q true david ..
haha ..
June 2nd, 2008 at 1:08 pm
hi .. i think ur not a true david ..
haha ..
June 9th, 2008 at 11:14 pm
David Archuleta is half American and half Honduran..his mom is originally from Honduras and his father is American…I’m very sure of this.
June 14th, 2008 at 11:45 pm
of course not, with their busy schedules of practices, tapings, press cons, etc etc…i don’t think they would have the time to answer forums.
btw, filipino here.
June 15th, 2008 at 1:29 am
Some people should seriously grow up. It has been confirmed that David Archuleta has no Filipino lineage at all in him, so we should just stop criticizing him for ‘trying to hide his roots’. What has he to hide, when he has none at all? He is Honduran-American. It’s one thing to be proud of our Filipino blood, but like one poster said, it is pretty embarrassing to other people when we keep on claiming that this person is Filipino, when it’s not even verified at all. People who come from other countries may not scream their nationality out loud, but that does not necessarily mean that they’re ashamed as to where they came from. We’re accusing an innocent and talented young star for something that he didn’t do. And given the status and his young age, he is pretty humble.
Also, isn’t it obvious enough that david a. is an impersonator? First of all, the impostor has bad grammar, and David would surely think about spell-checking before posting something online that the public would gain access to. Also, David Archuleta (the real one) would even probably be too busy to go online and answer these controversies.
Filipino here.
July 1st, 2008 at 1:33 am
hi to all the fans of david archuleta

September 28th, 2008 at 7:55 pm
uhm…are you seriously considering that “david a.” is actually david? c’mon guys. don’t sweat it. anyone can be david a.
November 30th, 2008 at 3:20 pm
of course not, eeewww..yuck Filipino. so ambitious..
November 30th, 2008 at 3:31 pm
I’m sure he will deny it because being a Filipino is so shameful. Hahaha..Too ambitious Filipino.
December 14th, 2008 at 3:29 pm
I think he is not Filipino, Because he’s a Honduran-American. This is all a baloney.

so yea this is really confusing
March 16th, 2009 at 1:51 pm

To David A!
I don’t know if you just wanted attention for having said what you said. Being Filipino does not define from where you come from it is how you deal with it. I live in Dubai cause my dad is one of the few Filipino Pilots in the Emirates Airline. Not that I’m bragging but being a filipino has a lot of advantages. I’m full filipino and yet I’m one of the best in an International School here. I act, sing, and dance on stage. My theatre instructor even told my parents that I can be an all-around which means I can be a triple threat. Filipinos are highly appreciated in Abroad. I even have friends that are in Disney Hollywood. Even in the West End Stage in the UK. And I’m still 16 years old. And with all I’ve said, I think it’s time for everyone to start appreciating us Filipino. ‘Cause even if my lineage is Filipino, Spanish, and Chinese. I am still proud to be Filipino!

huH?
May 8th, 2009 at 3:29 pm
yor you know this “david a.” i think ur a filipino cause u understand what yor said..
and excuse me..
even thou our county has too much problem.Politically,economy,un employment,poverty,spiritual leaders, greedy politician,paid rallyist etc.
we are proud that we are filipino and don’t you know that Filipinos are great singers. i mean great performers in sports and academic.
don’t you hear the news that there are Filipinos who got a trophy or medal in other countries competing for academic.that’s how we concentrate on academic and speaking straight english for us to level your knowings..
we can speak straight english that schools teach here because they want us to be in your line in the way we speak..
there are many Filipinos who are famous in other countries like CHARICE PEMPENGCO.
she’s a great singer and she met some other famous personalities in america but yet she doesn’t forget that she is a filipino and in fact she’s proud..
im sure you also know manny pacquiao.
if not you too late to know that the famous and best boxer is a filipino..
look henry sy..
he is a chinese but he build his very fist business here in PHILIPPINES..
maybe you also know iza calzado is one of the actors in the echo is also a filipino..
maybe your late in the news that some other american personalities like Rhianna and chris brown are so amazed here when they had a concert here.
and don’t you know that alexandra de rossi and coco martin are nominated in cannes international film festival which are FILIPINOS.
that’s how we can prove that behind this problems are filipinos who strive hard to meet you level.
and even our country is like that you just don’t know the beauty of our country..
you haven’t went here and in the famous tourist spots like boracay,callao cave,cave in puerto princesa..
so don’t judge our country because you haven’t gone here and you don’t know what is the real face of the PHILIPPINES behind that kind of problems..
so it’s great to know that famous singer and american idol season 7 runner up is a FILIPINO..
and all i can say to david a is be proud to be a FILIPINO because yor voice is really form FILIPINO blood.
and im one of thoes FILIPINOS who competed in other country and got a gold medal..
in 2006 SKATE ASIA SHENZEN CHINA “PHILIPPINES GOT THE 1ST PLACE IN OUR PRODUCTION EVENT and there are lots of cameras who wants to take our picture.and there’s also one chinese got my picture even thou we still don’t know if we won or not.
im sure they are so proud of FILIPINOS because we top 1st..
that’s how we can prove that you can’t look us down just because of our county’s problems..
May 8th, 2009 at 3:35 pm
so it’s great to know that famous singer and american idol season 7 runner up is a FILIPINO..
and all i can say to david Archuleta is be proud to be a FILIPINO because your voice is really form a FILIPINO blood.
May 8th, 2009 at 3:57 pm
and even thou he has fair skin..
and speaks fluent english..
he is still a filipino if ever..
im sure he’ll learn how to speak filipino..
but of course he still need to stay in America for his singing career.
im just telling nothing but the truth..
so thoes filipino haters
too bad for your comments cause you don’t know what’s the real face of PHILIPPINES..
May 8th, 2009 at 4:15 pm
im not ashamed of being filipino..
in fact im proud..

Message to David A.!
don’t say that liar things because we knwo that you are not david archuleta!
your thinking in negative things!
the true david archuleta is visiting the Philippines this month
so why are you saying such a things that is not true!
May 15th, 2009 at 4:19 pm
haha. honestly and seriously all of you guys are over reacting. duh. we all know that he doesnt have the filipino blood or lineage. he was born in honduras and its too far away from phils. so stop it. it is just a fiction not a fact. if you still insists that he has it, then show a proof. and OBVIOUSLY, the DAVID speaking up there was WAY TOO POSER and faker. haha :D yer all fooled by him? omg. he’s in the phils now, i think? and i guess he was too BUSY for his shows, guestings and concert that he’ll be replying on this page? WAY TOO IMPOSSIBLE. and do you think he has the time or the care to answer this stupid question? come to think of it, people. btw, to have more infos bout him. he has an account on twitter.com, that’s his online diary. it was confirmed and he was the one who told it to the public. so maybe, just try to visit it and if ur still not contented, better ASK HIM PERSONALLY. HAHA =)))
May 15th, 2009 at 6:04 pm
and for the person who’s using my idol’s name..
david was so amazed here and to filipino singers..
he loves Philippine mangoes and he want’s to ride a jeepney
even he knows our country is like this he salutes to FILIPINO because he said that we are good in talent..
and that’s the truth..
even our country is like this he discovers that there are filipino who are so good in every thing and he just love PHILIPPINES..
it’s so cool here..
so..
shut up..
because the real DAVID ARHULETA salutes to FILIPINOS AND HERE IN PHILIPPINES..
May 15th, 2009 at 10:53 pm
wow..
pia guanio was so lucky because she saw and meet davids 2 times..
May 16th, 2009 at 11:55 am
hey guys..
maybe if david archuleta the real one will open this site he’ll see those bad comments about him while it’s not really for him..
david james archuleta, if u opened this the one were saying david a is the one who use your name and that is not you..
May 19th, 2009 at 11:46 am
he is spanish american
he came from honduras
May 19th, 2009 at 11:49 am
I do not have filipino lineage. Thanks for the warm welcome that you showed to me and cook
I love Philippines
Mabuhay
Mahal ko kayo!
May 19th, 2009 at 12:38 pm
david a. WTF! if you don’t want to be a Filipino, why did you even bother to comment? like it only shows that you are a Filipino… duh…
May 19th, 2009 at 5:29 pm
so if he hasn’t filipino line age who the hell post this site???
and we don’t insist if he’s filipino or not..
i mean me.
my first comment was about the person who uses Archie’s name because he criticize Philippines. And my 2nd comment was
it’s so good to know that AI season 7 runner up was a filipino…
but it was clear in my mind that why would Archie have a filipino lineage
because both of her parents doesn’t have blood of being filipino..
so this was just a big joke that spread all over the world..
May 20th, 2009 at 12:59 pm
my mom said it’s like Archie’s surname has a spanish word..
and i found out that he has a blood of spanish in father’s side it think…
May 21st, 2009 at 10:11 am
Filipino are good but not in politics and they are believing in God.they are doing everything they can to be rich they are not doing wrong…..
May 21st, 2009 at 10:05 pm
@Anti-Filipinos:
Listen up..don’t judge us if your not a Filipino..like they said think 1st before you’ll do anything and please would you mind stop uttering unwanted words to us cause its not nice to hear and its also painful in our part..what if we’ll going to do the same at you?what would you feel?i doubt you would be proud if your one..i admit Filipinos were ambitious..and I know that we dreamt of what becoming on the future is on place..Truly,Filipinos were great talents..even the other who are not professionals still got sense for having sidelines..thanks god for the talent..u gave us..we’re great..isn’t it?fellow Filipinos?what?answer me!Maybe your just jealous at us..so..what if our country is what-so-ever?!who cares?at least we have the country to live on..at least we are proud Filipino citizens!As long as we are not like others..who is anti Filipinos here!
Politically,economy,unemployment,poverty,spiritual leaders,greedy politicians,paid rallyist?what now?don’t put them here?!what’s the connection to David?what again?!how sure are you that these things were really happening here?Aside from that..Filipinos don’t just have that..don’t you know that Filipinos were also gifted for our country,Philippines has riches that no other country have?yeah..your right I’m not lying..It’s true..Maybe your just envy at us because you are not a Filipino!
Us,Filipinos can gone further and be successful..We should be proud of ourselves for the inspiration given to us by many Filipinos in USA like Manny Pacquiao ,Charmaine Clarice Pempengco , Ramielle Malubay , Nicole Scherzinger , Jasmine Trias , and others!My advice is get to know us first!don’t just blah blah blah about us and our country?get it?
May 22nd, 2009 at 11:33 am
Anyhow,I’m not yet finish..i would just want to thank each Filipino who commented here previously for defending our beloved country..there’s nothing much wrong with it..i don’t wanna do this but some people and some of the harsh comments push me to do..i still have another comment to be released these coming days.. i can’t post it now ’cause it very complicated..i lacked time..so..maybe a little more later..
P.S. please use your real names .. This is not a joke!
May 22nd, 2009 at 3:07 pm
“THIS IS MY PREVIOUS AND 1ST COMMENT”
yor you know this “david a.” i think ur a filipino cause u understand what yor said..
and excuse me..
even thou our county has too much problem.Politically,economy,un employment,poverty,spiritual leaders, greedy politician,paid rallyist etc.
we are proud that we are filipino and don’t you know that Filipinos are great singers. i mean great performers in sports and academic.
don’t you hear the news that there are Filipinos who got a trophy or medal in other countries competing for academic.that’s how we concentrate on academic and speaking straight english for us to level your knowings..
we can speak straight english that schools teach here because they want us to be in your line in the way we speak..
there are many Filipinos who are famous in other countries like CHARICE PEMPENGCO.
she’s a great singer and she met some other famous personalities in america but yet she doesn’t forget that she is a filipino and in fact she’s proud..
im sure you also know manny pacquiao.
if not you too late to know that the famous and best boxer is a filipino..
look henry sy..
he is a chinese but he build his very fist business here in PHILIPPINES..
maybe you also know iza calzado is one of the actors in the echo is also a filipino..
maybe your late in the news that some other american personalities like Rhianna and chris brown are so amazed here when they had a concert here.
and don’t you know that alexandra de rossi and coco martin are nominated in cannes international film festival which are FILIPINOS.
that’s how we can prove that behind this problems are filipinos who strive hard to meet you level.
and even our country is like that you just don’t know the beauty of our country..
you haven’t went here and in the famous tourist spots like boracay,callao cave,cave in puerto princesa..
so don’t judge our country because you haven’t gone here and you don’t know what is the real face of the PHILIPPINES behind that kind of problems..
so it’s great to know that famous singer and american idol season 7 runner up is a FILIPINO..
and all i can say to david a is be proud to be a FILIPINO because yor voice is really form FILIPINO blood.
and im one of thoes FILIPINOS who competed in other country and got a gold medal..
in 2006 SKATE ASIA SHENZEN CHINA “PHILIPPINES GOT THE 1ST PLACE IN OUR PRODUCTION EVENT and there are lots of cameras who wants to take our picture.and there’s also one chinese got my picture even thou we still don’t know if we won or not.
im sure they are so proud of FILIPINOS because we top 1st..
that’s how we can prove that you can’t look us down just because of our county’s problems..

so it’s great to know that famous singer and american idol season 7 runner up is a FILIPINO..
and all i can say to david Archuleta is be proud to be a FILIPINO because your voice is really form a FILIPINO blood.
i wont allow people to say bad thing about the Philippines..
People Who Said that were very judge mental..
May 22nd, 2009 at 3:26 pm
but it’s ok if david a is not a filipino..
but you can’t blame him if he loves Philippines And Filipinos..
It’s His Choice, OK???
Gerald Anderson’s H.S. Friend Is David Archuleta in States..
But I don’t know if in Murray Utah High School..
He didn’t mention anything and Wikipedia said that he graduted high school here in Philippines…
And According to Him He was The one who leave states..
and so they didn’t have already a connection to each other..
Then When Archuleta Joined AI Anderson Said it’s like Archie’s face was so familiar to him and he knew it not because of his look also because of his name DAVID ARCHULETA..
so anderson’s sure it’s his H.S. Friend/School mate/H.S. Cafeteria Friend..
they always go together in their cafeteria..
just wanna share it..
May 24th, 2009 at 1:07 am

May 28th, 2009 at 1:14 pm
