David Archuleta:‘I haven’t changed’
|
|

swarmed by a horde of photographers. The smile never left his face

pose for the cameras. “Hang on, I think I might have something in
my teeth,” he said, eliciting laughs from the photographers. In

is exactly as he is on TV: polite, charming and perpetually flashing
that mega-watt smile.

Corruption
