Scott Macintyre interview with EW

Here is another interview with Scott Macintyre:

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: I think everyone wants to know this: How do you stay so positive and upbeat? SCOTT MacINTYRE: I think the main reason I'm able to maintain a balanced perspective about this is that I've been through so much in my life and I've come through things that really give me a bigger perspective and really put American Idol where I can see it for what it really is. I don't always get caught up in all the hype and ups and downs. For instance, during Hollywood Week, they didn't even air me during group round because there was no drama in my group. I'm able to escape that. I'm a very levelheaded person, I hope. You can notice when I'm talking to the judges, too, I try to use a clever, humorous, diplomatic approach.
I think people appreciate that about you — all your funny little jokes. Like, even last night, when you were asking whether you were wearing anything pink during the Ford shoot.I appreciate that. It's nice to be remembered as a humorous person. That's a compliment to anyone. There's a big element of personality to this show. And there's a big element of where we've come from and the likeability thing.
So, let's get down to really important business: Everyone loved the anecdote about the chocolate cake. Can you describe the cake for our readers?The quadruple chocolate cake was absolutely amazing — hats off to Chef David! I was loving the moist texture of the mousse layer and the cake layer was also very well done. And it had the chocolate shavings on top. Everything about it! I can't remember what the fourth layer was, but it doesn't matter because it was delicious. And I worked hard for that cake!
How so?It took a while. The story is they introduced Chef David to us, and they kind of let us know that the reason they hired him was because he cooks very consciously and a lot of healthy type of items. He handed out request sheets for anyone to write down certain types of cuisines that we desired. I wrote down, partially as a joke, triple-chocolate cake. I brought it up to him, and handed it to him. He gave me that — I could feel the look, I couldn't see it — but he gave me that silence. And he goes, ''That won't be happening any time soon.''
Real quick: You've been cooped up in the studio and the house for the last several weeks. What's the first post-media tour thing you'll do? Disneyland?Um, I don't know if they'll allow me to go to Disneyland! They might have to close it down. The first thing I'm gonna do is get home and really lay down on paper my idea for my next CD, my post-Idol CD. I'm gonna try to put my best foot forward as soon as possible.
