Getting To Know American Idol’s Danny Gokey

February 19, 2009 04:17:33 by Christine McDow

Danny Gokeyis probably the interview we were looking most forward too but unfortunately it was the one to disappoint. He seems to have such a great stage presence, but over the phone he didn’t seem very happy. He was the final person to make it into the American Idol Season 8 top 12 last night and he definitely seemed happier about it on stage than he did on the phone with us. He mentioned that he had given a lot of interviews today so maybe he was just a little burnt out. He also mentioned that during Hollywood week he put on a happy face even though he wasn’t feeling too positive, so maybe some of that was coming out as well. There were some good answers to questions though and we have those for you here. Enjoy!
