Squeaky clean (And straight — Did we mention straight?) former American Idol runner-up David Archuleta visited a gay bar in New York City over the weekend – but the velvet-voiced heartthrob would like his loyal fanbase to know that he’s wasn’t there for the scenery or the drink specials.
The crooner affectionately dubbed Archie explained the snafu in a series of postings to his Twitter page this week….
“Hey guys just wanted to clear something up real quick lol. Last night in New York I got invited to go and see my friend Charice perform…Mental note to self: always ask where before you go! Wasn’t my kind of place lol, and I had no clue! I guess you live and learn. The upside was that Charice was awesome, and she has an incredible voice… Can get crazy quick. NO worries all, I wouldn’t get into things like that intentionally haha. Hope you guys have a good Sunday! Hope that clears things up! Been seeing some of the tweets.. sheesh!” David wrote, before later adding, “I have friends who are gay, and they’re great people. Whether they’re gay or not doesn’t change how I think of them… I have nothing against anyone, I’m sorry if that’s how it came across. I’m just not into the partying scene lol.”
