David Cook: Going Back Home Was A Bit Of A Trip

Cook talked about being able to make it back to Tulsa and the Kansas City area after winning the FOX hit. “It was a bit of a trip. People there seemed shocked to see me,” Cook said. “It’s still very odd because, I mean, I don’t feel any different. Maybe I’ve got a few more numbers in the bank account, but that’s about it. But it was cool.” Video at myfoxkc.com has since been removed.
