American Idol Winner: DAVID COOK!!!!!!!!!!

The winner of American Idol Season 7 is David Cook!!!!!!! YAY! Though I thought that both he and David Archuleta were very good performers, Cook was always more risky. He also played instruments more often and preformed to the crowd better. The stars included some of the American Idol finalists (namely Jason Castro, Brooke White, Syesha Mercado, Michael Johns, & Carly Smithson), Bryan Adams, the Jonas Brothers, Seal, Carrie Underwood, Jordin Sparks, OneRepublic, and several others.
Some pictures from the Season Finale that came on Wednesday:



Archuleta and Cook singing "Hero". Awesome performance! They sound good together.

The top 6 guys performed together towards the beginning of the show. These 4 seemed to be enjoying the song- Bryan Adams' "Summer of '69".

Close-up of Jason performing in this song.

Jason Castro performed "Hallelujah", once again. This time, it seemed he had a stronger emotional connection with the song. This was my favorite performance, obviously.
