Look who's lurking? π (Twitpic from @ariesaludo: "#followarchuleta delighted to see fans' tweets, videos and updates online...")
Check out more behind-the-scenes photos from FollowArchuleta.ph HERE.
Absolutely love all the wonderful photos! David should be fabulous in this mini series (and look fabulous)! He is certainly in the company of some beautiful young females, haha.
Here is another with his hair stylist. He couldn’t be more photogenic. Just….WOW.
/large
thanks, peppertara! Added it to the post! π
Meant to say the photo was posted ‘from his hair stylist’. In any case….beautiful.
Just catching up with David in the Philippines….now that is my kind of perfect reception and treatment of Mr. A. In the Filipino microcosm, he is everything and more, a superstar, a singer, songwriter, celebrity and soon to be actor. Plus he is so well regarded on many levels, so embraced for who he is, he lets down his guard and speaks without those protective shields up. Warm fuzzies everywhere.
{{{{{{Waves}}}}}} to all SAz’s. π
Love it!! David is so respected by press, all ages of fan. He blossoms in this environment.
Hear he started recording too and they all loved it.
Thanks for keeping us updated Tofan. Love your tag on FollowArchuleta!! ha! like we haven’t every minute of the last 4 years. ha! ha!
Kiz, at first, I was thinking that, as you say, when David’s abroad he feels the “love” from not only fans but entertainment execs, the media, etc. and so he lets down his guard and opens up … now I’m thinking maybe the long trip, time change, etc. contributes to letting his defences down … jet lag FTW!!! π
If it’s jet lag, let’s put that in an atomizer and spritz it around periodically when we just want to know something important.
You may have something on the post stress reaction…In interviews the evening post the AI finale results he was as vocal and charming as I’ve ever seen him; maybe that was fueled by pure relief. π From what I’ve seen he is a creature of moods, not the wildly swinging kind, but the more nuanced kind as in you might get five words instead of three in an answer..lolz. Still lots of warm fuzzies coming over the net and videos from the Philippines, no denying that.
ROTFL… I’ll spring for that atomizer!!! π
kizzi, I have it favorited, one of my all time fav interviews.
Yes Emme, great interview and this one too….
I had the wrong interview, lol Love that one after the finale. It was like, where have they been hiding this guy. I always felt they put a bit of a muzzle on him.
cool to see both interviews again π Watching them, it really hits me how very young he was during Idol … the pressure, yikes.
I live in a small town in a small county so imagine my shock when, as I was reading the local morning paper, I see David’s smiling face with the headline: Archuleta starts Philippine series!!!!!!!!!!! It was a small article, but it was in my local paper!!!!!! eeeeeeeeee!!!!
Wow that’s so awesome!!!!
so cool, af4L!!!
Woot!!!!
TOfan – love the tag “Follow Archuleta (like we don’t? sheesh)” LOL
Love that too!!
Just so excited for this opportunity for him. At first I was a little befuddled by the timing, but now I think it is perfect, and the absolute perfect place to do it. Very wise indeed.
A, what was it, 2-day crash acting course and he is flying off halfway around the world to star in a mini-series and record a beautiful filipino love song. Piece of cake.
(tofan, love the shades pic/tweet on sidebar)
“befuddled” … perfect word, emme! … I haven’t heard the song yet, it’s sort of like a spoiler for me so I think I want the 1st time I hear it to be David’s version. π
ackkkkkkk, just read these tweets from the TV5 director:
@dantenicogarcia The boy is so warm, humble and so well-mannered… It feels like directing my little brother.
… I just directed the plug of the mini-series… We just did a scene in a hotel staircase with two girls fighting over him.
… @Jana__OR: Slappy? lol! — ‘Slappy’ because @DavidArchie got slapped by a girl in the scene that I directed.
Girls fighting over him??? Slapping scene????? *popcorn*
Adorbs vid of David demonstrating vocal exercises …(what he doesn’t mention about the 2nd exercise is that it brings the voice forward into your facial “mask” (which you can hear when he does it)… not that anyone needed to know that bahahahahahaha)
Update: eeeeep, more good news from @kricket_rc234:
“Oh btw, was told there will MOST LIKELY be a music video for Nandito Ako :-p”
Just coming up for air #FollowArchuleta is like a marathon event!
And I still have a job and house to run, yet LOL
But thank you for all the messages of loving what you have been seeing so far wrt to the coverage π We @ Archuleta Philippines & TDC are devoted chroniclers.
Have you heard the few lines that David sampled?
Am adding all subtitles to the news vids am uploading so you guys can understand. Aside from #FollowArchuleta page, just keep watch of the vid collection playlist of YT channel for 2012 under JRforDA2012
ps: you will get to watch the series when it airs, promise!
awesome, JR, thank youuu!!!!! Can’t wait to hear all your stories! π Also can’t wait to hear the theme song… just saw this pic of the recording session on FollowArchuleta:

Tons of stories but no time to tell them. I haven;βt even written anything on TDC. Just posting vids, pix & news as fast as we can but there will interesting tales to tell. Even us among the Council of the Elders of Archileta Philippines and ARCH had not much time to talkβ¦
Have to run but will be back soon

What a way for David to make a temporary exit…this along with songs he wants to record for his fans. Couldn’t be sweeter.
