Donna Summer didn’t know who was going to win "American Idol," but she had some kind-hearted notification for the prospective winner.

"Save your money. Seriously save your well off," she told reporters in the backstage pressroom at Los Angeles’ Nokia Theatre prior to the "Idol" finale. "For the first year, don’t buy any major major things like a mod house unless you made so much money it’s stupid. … And the second emotional attachment is to get a good lawyer, a good accountant and great songs."

David Cook, who was named this year’s "American Idol," will now oblige plenty of time to put Summer’s recommendations to employ — though he soundless seems a little surprised to be doing so.

"My music teacher, Mrs. Gentry, made me sing at a Christmas pageant in the help grade and now I’m here," he said in wonder. "So the ride’s been … pretty nuts. You couldn’t compose this — or maybe you can," he said, noting the presence of a roomful of writers. "But I can’t."
