I've been a Cook fan since top 24. When they 1st introduced him on the city audition shows they said he was from Tulsa, and I thought he has a really good voice but didn't think much more about it. I never get serious about the contestants until top 24. But than they introduced David as being from Blue Springs MO and that got my attention because I live in Missouri. Actually my older sister lived in Blue Springs from about 1971 thru 1983 and I used to spend my summers there when I was a teen. (I'm giving my age away) But then when he performed, he blew me away. I supported him all thru the show and will continue to do so. As you can remember there were 2 other contestants from Missouri in the top 24, which really surprised me, and I really wanted to support them, but they just didn't do it for me so I never voted for them. In the end, no matter who you are, or where your from, it's all about the voice and talent and if they have the IT factor. And David is IT. Being from Missouri is just icing on the cake for me. PS He's gorgeous!!
