David Archuleta Still Waiting for First Kiss

OK, girls, Seventeen magazine asked American Idol runner-up David Archuleta the eternal question: when was your first kiss? "I haven't had a first kiss," he replied. Archie, 17, has let it be known before he feels he's not old enough to understand all the feelings that go along with a relationship.

Any girls' fashion trends that confuse him? "I don't get those really short skirts," he told Seventeen. He doesn't have a celebrity crush, either ("I've always been against that because it's like you don't even know who they are"), but lists Sara Bareilles as a celebrity he looks up to. Her song "Many the Miles" is the last tune he listened to on his iPod.

In between sessions working on his new album, he plops on the couch to catch a few TV guilty pleasures. "I like cartoons," he said. "I like Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends [and] The Fairly OddParents."

Most ironic of all? David A., who was introduced on the Idol finale as "weighing around 100 pounds, soaking wet", told the mag he recently had to pay an overweight fee at the airport because his luggage was too heavy.

By the way, Seventeen also bounced a few questions off Idol champ David Cook. His first kiss was in seventh grade, and who would he like to trade places with for a day? "My dog, Penny," he said. "I think there's something very beautiful in being able to go through a day and not have to worry about anything except 'Why didn't my owner put food in my dish?'" - J.R. Whalen
