Pictures: American Idol Gives Jeff Archuleta The Hand

Jeff Archuleta, evil stage dad of our adorable little chuletito David Archuleta, has been banned from rehearsals, etc for American Idol. This could be the show's attempt at a telenovela plot line to ensure record-breaking ratings during its final days, but it also might be due to the fact that Jeff Archuleta is a well-documented control freak. We know. Let's ask TMZ:

"Idol" sources tell TMZ Jeff has been a complete pain in the ass, interfering with the entire production. He has badgered producers, the band, vocal coaches and even other contestants. The final straw came this week, when Jeff wanted to change the lyrics to David's first song, "Stand By Me." Jeff insisted on adding a verse from Sean Kingston's hit, "Beautiful Girls." Producers sent him an e-mail telling him the lyrics could not be changed. They were beyond pissed when David sang the song with Kingston's lyrics during the live show.

Oh no he di-in't. The lyric change is rumored to have cost the show a lot of money. Which, of course, is the only real reason anything ever happens. Archuleta's Dad Banished from "Idol" [TMZ] AP Source: David Archuleta's dad loses 'Idol' backstage pass [AP] Jeff Archuleta coverage on Guanabee
