Teenage contestant David Archuleta left judge Paula Abdul in tears on last night’s American Idol . I want to squish you, squeeze your head off and dangle you from my rear-view mirror,” Abdul gushed after the 17-year-old performed John Lennon ’s “Imagination.” “That was…one of the most moving performances I’ve ever heard,” Abdul continued. “You’re destined for super stardom.” Even Simon Cowell — who’d been criticizing singers all night — praised Archuleta. “There are 19 very miserable contestants sitting here tonight.
