"Complain" buzz!

David Archuleta, American Idol runner up and entertainer in his own right was in Los Angeles helping the Girl Up Pep Rally in LA event. The entertainer talked about the power of girls and spoke of his sisters and mom.

Fans will be delighted to know he also took to the microphone to sing a single off his new album. The song, 'Complain' was definitely one that everyone was glad to hear. not only did it have a message, it gave everyone a new appreciation for David as it was so wonderfully performed.

The evening was an opportunity for the charity to raise funds and awareness at this annual event. Having David there seemed like an amazing feat not only for the organization but also for those in attendance as he message was so strong.

Queen Rania al Abdullah of Jordan would be the bigger celeb in most parts of the world, but this is Hollywood, so we're going to lead with David Archuleta when it comes to the Girl Up events held Thursday and Friday in L.A.

Archuleta debuted his single "Complain" at a reception Thursday night (see the video below), where Nigel Barker of "America's Next Top Model" encouraged fathers, brothers, uncles, and grandfathers to support girls as well.
