David Archuleta, a 33-year-old queer singer, returned to the American Idol stage in April, performing his latest single, "Hell Together," about his mother's unconditional allyship after coming out in 2021. Archuleta, who left the Mormon church in 2008, is now sharing his story with authenticity and vulnerability, standing as a beacon of hope and empowerment for LGBTQ youth. He hopes that his song will inspire other parents to be wholehearted allies to their queer children. Archuleta's return to the Idol stage has been invigorating for him, as he can express his openness and vulnerability without hiding.

American Idol has been a significant platform for people to express their experiences and struggles, including those who are still in the closet. The show has provided a platform for people to share their stories and experiences, allowing them to find a safe way out of their own closet. The performance of "Hell Together" on the show has been met with mixed reviews, but it has also garnered support from viewers, including some commenters admiring the singer's chest.
