David Cook is one smart American Idol winner. He's not under the delusion, like fellow Idol contestant Syesha Mercado, that he has a "gift to share with the world." No, David is making deals fast, before the alarm on his 15 minutes of fame goes off.

Before disappearing into Taylor Hicks oblivion, Cook is racking up a sweet endorsement deal with the shoe company, Sketchers.

"I have always viewed Skechers as a cool company, so I am excited to be a part of their campaign," Cook mumbled on his way to the bank.

The shoe company brags that the new Cook-inspired shoe will, "reflect his personality, interests and appeal."

Cook is hoping to put some money in the bank before becoming the next Taylor Hicks, Rueben Studdard, or God forbid, this douche:

    TAYLOR HICKS IS SUCH A LOSER! If he didn't spend so much money on drugs he wouldn't have to pimp himself out so much. How many of you idiots are going to plunk down the big bucks to lick his shoes at a M&G? You're such loons.
