•December 1, 2008 • 6 Comments

Thank goodness for New York taxis! David Archuleta and his mom, Lupe, were trying to enjoy some quality time when they ran into an overly persistent, amateur paparazzi, make that, mamarazzi while walking in NYC. David and Lupe lightheartedly tried to avoid the camera eye, but the insistent videographer just wasn’t “getting the picture.”

David, David, David!

The Osmond’s 2nd Generation ring in the holidays along with David Archuleta. Scott Osmond, along with Michael, Nathan, Doug, David, John and Tyler performed Nov 29th at the Capital Theater in Salt Lake City, Utah., for their second annual “A Family Christmas With the Osmonds 2nd Generation” show.

“We all make sure we’re in Utah at Christmas time,” Scott Osmond said in a telephone interview. “We love to get together to harmonize.”

So the group, known as 2ndG, made that harmony at a Christmas concert that benefited the MORE Project, dedicated to helping disadvantaged children and families in Brazil. About 75 percent of the ticket sales went to the project, Osmond said.

Alan Osmond’s eight sons have grown up performing in a variety of venues, including the touring company of “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.” They have also performed in Branson, Mo., for several years and done national and world tours.

The eighth member of 2ndG, Alex, is currently serving a Mormon mission in Georgia. His six older brothers have also served missions — Michael in Denmark, Nathan in Chile, Doug in South Africa, David in Spain, Scott in Paraguay and John in Brazil. The youngest brother, Tyler, 18, is getting ready for a mission, Scott Osmond said. All eight brothers are Eagle Scouts, Osmond added, and he’s currently a Scoutmaster.

We are being told that David Archuleta was a special guest and sang songs such as O’ Holy Night and Mary Did You Know. IDF Laura was at the event and sends back the following photos:

Editor’s Note: During American Idol Season 7, the week of April 1st, Donny Osmond, 50, who is one of Utah’s most famous entertainers and one of the Osmond Brothers., talked to David Archuleta on several occassions giving him advice such as  “Just enjoy the process because it is 15 minutes of fame, so enjoy every (one) of those 15 minutes,” Osmond said.

On May 7, 2003 during the time that David Archuleta was on Star Search 2, Donny Osmond was a guest judge on the program.

Here is a video from the ABC Affiliate in Utah where the Osmond Brothers mentioned the upcoming appearance by a special guest which we now know was David Archuleta:  CLICK HERE

Nathan Osmond contacted David back in May 2008 to ask David to join his new social networking site known as uPlej (pronounced “You Pledge”) which is designed to raise money for various charities. Nathan’s uPlej site is http://www.uplej.com/nathanosmond. For every person that you get to join YOUR uPlej network, one dollar will go to help your favorite charity every single month. It costs $4.99 to be a member of uPlej a month. Four dollars goes directly to the charity. 75 cents goes to keep the network running and 24 cents is for the transaction cost. Nathan Osmond supports The CHILDREN’S MIRACLE NETWORK, a foundation that his Grandmother Osmond started 25 years ago. Nathan has been in the hospitals and has seen those children. It is a wonderful cause. He is also supporting AUTISM SPEAKS because his oldest son, Zachary, is on the autism spectrum. He’s also chosen to support ONE HEART, an amazing umbrella charity that supports numerous great causes.

David Archuleta: To Help and to Learn.

•November 29, 2008 • 13 Comments

When I saw this picture with the quote from David I knew I had to post it. It made me think of when I was a kid, sitting on my bedroom floor with my World Book encyclopedias spread all around, imagining I was in Africa. There’s something about the landscapes, peoples, and exotic animals of the cradle of humanity that has always intrigued me. My mother still has a letter I wrote her when I was seven that said, “Please don’t forget me when I go to Africa.” Lol. :) I hope David does get to visit Africa some day, because I know he has a heart for those who are suffering. I’m looking forward to witnessing what great humanitarian works David will accomplish with his life, through his music, and through the gifts God has given him.
