Happy Birthday Kevin Covais!

admin — Thu, 29 May 2008 22:05:00 +0000

Everyone remembers Kevin Covais, from Levittown, New York, the eleventh place finalist from Season 5. Why? Because he was just the cutest little thing ever! So much so that his fellow contestant during that season, Paris Bennett dubbed him “Chicken Little”. And though Kevin was voted off that season, he has been an extremely busy man.

Not just content with being a member of the metropolitan Youth Chorale, the National Honor Society, and a spokesperson for the American Diabetes Association, he also co-starred alongside Drake Bell in the 2008 comedy, “College”, sang at the Disney World Holiday Concert in 2006, and just recently, he rapped on his friend and fellow Idol, Paris Bennett’s debut cd, “Princess P”.

Though he hasn’t been signed yet, our old friend Kevin remains hopeful, saying, “Who knows, maybe something big will happen.” With all of this on his plate so far, we’re very sure it will!

David Cook Comments on American Idol Victory

admin — Sat, 24 May 2008 16:26:56 +0000

Did David Cook expect to win American Idol? Heck, he barely expected to make it past the initial round of auditions.
“I just figured I’d go in, sing a song and they’d say I wasn’t what they were looking for. I’d go back to Tulsa to work on my record some more,” Cook told reporters during a Friday conference call. “Apparently, somebody had another plan.”
That’s for certain.

In the end, Cook defeated David Archuleta by a 56% to 44% home viewer voting margin, roughly 12 million total votes.
“I think that number is actually really misleading,” Cook said. “Obviously within the bubble of Idol, it’s hard to kind of get a vibe for what’s …
