A series of Twitter posts between former “American Idol” David Archuleta his friend, singer Charice Pempengco, and some fans about his reason for being at Club 57, a gay men’s nightclub in New York City. Archuleta, 19, is best known for his innocent, almost clueless persona, and for allegedly having an “overbearing” show dad. Charice, a 17-year-old, Filipino protege of music producer David Foster, was at Washington, DC’s gay club, Town Danceboutique, two weeks ago, making an appearance with dance music superstar Deborah Cox.
