If there is any question as to how dedicated 19E and RCA are to pushing David Cook's debut album, the fact that he is performing on NBC's "Saturday Night Live" on Nov. 1 should quell any anxiety fans are having. The Chicago Tribune's TV correspondent Maureen Ryan announced via her blog that Cook will be the show's musical guest with Ben Affleck fulfilling hosting duties.
What is notable about this appearance is that no Idol has ever performed on the show prior to having an album released. He is also only the fourth Idol alum to perform on the show, following Clay Aiken, Kelly Clarkson and Carrie Underwood. To magnify the situation even further, this is the final regular season episode before the presidential election on Nov. 4, so the audience should be bigger than ever in anticipation, especially is someone makes an appearance *cough*SarahPalin*cough*
It looks like RCA really is pulling out all the stops for Cook afterall.

Ahhh...if that sarah palin is on there im starting a boycott of that show
pfff...politics aside you got to agree she has some nice DSL's
Whats a DSL????
hmmm.. seems to me like a desperate attempt to bolster Cook's star who has somewhat dimmed due to a weak performing single...
No gig , even as big as the SNL , could stop the sliding if he could not fulfilled expectations ....
