The Idols are featured in a pretty funny Ford commercial, which made it’s debut in last night’s episode of American Idol, and it was looking pretty great except for one tiny little problem. David Archuleta and Jason Castro play “UFOs” in the commercial! UFOs? What’s the director, Eric Heimbold, trying to say here? That Archuleta and Castro are aliens? And what kind of aliens exactly!?

“Today’s music video is in the theme of a 50’s horror movie like a black and white science fiction movie where the Idols are being terrorized by a UFO.”

Oh really? Terrorize? And you just happened to cast the only two Latinos to play UFOs out of the ENTIRE line-up of American Idol! Why you gotta play us like that? Well, overall it is a funny commercial but is this a conspiracy? We think not! [American Idol]
