David Archuleta might be one of the biggest (and youngest) hearthrobs to be singing his way to success at the moment, but the American Idol star has recently revealed that he hates seeing himself on screen and hearing his own voice.
The baby-faced American Idol singer managed to bag himself thousands of fans during his time on the show, many who believe he was the rightful winner of the competition, however, at the launch of the American Idol Experience in Disney World, Florida, David said: "I'm looking forward to seeing how it all came together, even though I hope they don't show very much of me because I hate seeing myself."
Talking to the Press Association, David admitted he hadn't even seen any of the shows in which he appeared. "I don't know, I'm just so weird-looking and I sound weird. Oh, I hate hearing myself. Like with the stuff on the album I kind of had to get the hang of so that's not as bad, but everything else - no! I can't stand it," he added.
To be honest, I think David's success must have affected his brain, because he has the most beautiful voice, and the most angelic face I have ever seen on a 17 year old boy!

He is weird looking and sounding when he is insecure. He needs a good publicist to fend his childlish behavior. Self-confidence is attractive, insecurity isn't.

I know David's still young and has some growing up yet to do, but his OTT humility is the only thing that bothers me about this uber-talented, gorgeous guy. As JC Chasez of 'NSYNC' said... READ MORE

KE, Perhaps David's humility bothers you because you don't believe it to be genuine.
It's time to start believing.
He's for real.

David's humility is such a refreshing change from the usual huge egos of pop stars. Love that about him. LOVE that.

I find David's humility, honesty and shyness very attractive. But I do not think he lacks confidence. He'll come right out and say when he's nervous about something but he always meets ... READ MORE
