* FreezeFrameBonus: During one session of the LDS church’s April 2012 General Conference (a semiannual weekend-long global broadcast of sermons from church leaders), the internet was set abuzz when viewers briefly spotted David singing in the Missionary Training Center choir.

* MissionFromGod: His two-year proselytizing mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

* OneSteveLimit: Averted when he was a contestant on ''American Idol''--he went to the finals against David Cook.
* TheRunnerUpTakesItAll: David only ''narrowly'' lost ''Idol'' to David Cook, surprising Cook himself and despite being Creator/SimonCowell’s favorite. To date, Archuleta has the bigger fanbase (to illustrate: as of August 2019, Cook has almost 285,000 Twitter followers, while Archuleta has about ''1.2 million'').

* TeenIdol: Naturally; he got his big break on ''American Idol'' at 17, and many a teenage girl found themselves infatuated.
