OTHER STORIES IN THIS ISSUE:
David Archuleta on Top
David Archuleta, the first Hispanic contestant to make it as a finalist on American Idol, talks to PEOPLE en Espanol about his newfound fame, how he almost did not make it, and his plans for the future. "I've always imagined myself on stage," says Archuleta, who at 17-years-old, placed second, after David Cook, on the hit reality show series.
Even after millions of votes and his "Archie" fan club, he still remains humble. "I thought nobody liked to hear me sing," says Archuleta. However, his accomplishments are nothing short of a miracle. About a year and a half ago, Archuleta received medical treatment for paralysis in his vocal cords. "The doctor said there is somebody up there who wants him to sing because, medically speaking, he should not be able to," says Archuleta's father.
He's now gearing up for the American Idols Live! Tour 2008 and will also start recording his first album as a solo artist. "I feel a connection when I hear other people singing. If I can accomplish that, it would make me feel so good," says Archuleta. (Page 143)

"With 'Viva Hollywood!' VH1 has given World of Wonder and our partners Latin World Entertainment the opportunity to produce a groundbreaking show that crosses cultural lines, and pays tribute to our obsession with the passion, fashion and machinations of telenovelas," said World of Wonder Executive Producer, Tom Campbell.
