On the recent Season 8 finale David had to give his American Idol title down to Kris Allen. He felt sort of like he was passing the tourch down to the next generation of American Idols.“I feel like I was on the finale two months ago, so now to be handing over that whole reigning American Idol bit, it’s exciting for me. But it’s also the end of a little chapter in the book, so it’s a little bittersweet.” David says.
