Hospitalized!
Filed under: American Idol
Here come all the sympathy votes!
American Idol contestant David Cook was rushed to the emergency room following the taping of Tuesday night's show.
What happened????
Cook's heart was palpitating at a high rate and his blood pressure was high as well.
Producers were said to want him to go to the hospital before the show ended, but David wanted to stay until it was over.
This all sounds like a publicity stunt to us!
Update: He's been treated (meds to bring down his high blood pressure) and released from the hospital already!
Cook is expected to have a checkup again in a few days.

David doesn't need sympathy votes. He's the best performer/artist on the show.
if he is so concerned with the poor health of his brother, shouldn't he be spending every moment with him instead of trying to personally gain through AI? it's hard to feel badly for someone who is exactly where they want to be!
He has talent, but his personality SUCKS. He needs to be more humble, and not the arrogant douche he seems like on the show.
FUCK YOU PEREZ!! YOU ARE SUCH AN ASSHOLE AND TO THINK I USED TO LOVE YOU BUT YOU ARE GETTING A VERY BIG HEAD AND NEED TO BE BROUGHT DOWN TO EARTH. SOMEONE NEEDS TO GIVE YOU A REALITY CHECK…
I think his music is wonderful. Even though he has to sing covers that could border on karaoke-ish, he makes them his own. Even if he were cut tonight he'd have a HUGE career. And I'd be first in line to buy his music. He doesn't need a sympathy vote, he has the popular vote already!
And of course his heard was racing! He's probably running around rehearsing all the time, barely sleeping from nerves, and then he stands in front of an audience of millions 3 times a week! Give them all a break (even though some of the AI contestants shouldn't even be allowed to sing in the shower).
Re: i agree – YOU AND YOUR GIRLFRIEND LIZ CAN SHOVE IT IN YOUR DRIED UP TWATS…YOU LOUSY JUDGEMENTAL BITCHES…PEREZ CONCOCTED THIS SYMPATHY SCENARIO AND YOU DUMB AS DIRT COWS FELL FOR IT…DAIVD COOK IS WITHOUT DOUBT THE BEST SINGER/PERFORMER/ENTERTAINER ON IDOL THIS SEASON AND THE OPINIONS OF YOU 2 LAME PIGGLETTS WON'T CHANGE THAT FACT IN THE SLIGHTEST….YOU BOTH NEED TO USE YOUR FINGERS FOR SOMETHING CONSTRUCTIVE LIKE FUCKING YOURSELVES…AND STAY THE HELL OFF THESE THREADS.
He doesn't need sympathy votes. He's the best singer in the competition.
Liz #84 Are you on Crack? Disregard facts according to liz. She is and idiot.
Nothing but love out to David!
HIS BROTHER HAS CANCER, IDIOTS!!! HE WAS REPORTED IN VERY BAD SHAPE YESTERDAY AND DAVID WAS UPSET. IF HE WANTED THE SYMPATHY VOTE HE WOULD HAVE ANNOUNCED HIS BROTHER'S CONDITION BEFORE NOW. IF HE WAS GAY YOU'D BE ALL ABOUT FEELING BAD FOR HIM, YOU ARE AN IDIOT!!
