Craig Berman of MSNBC shared his thoughts on ‘American Idol’ season five geek Kevin Covais getting booted from the Fox show Wednesday night, despite receiving support from the web site Votefortheworst.com. He writes, “The result was only surprising because Covais wasn’t among the three lowest vote-getters last week, and because he seemed a strong candidate to fill the role of this year’s contestant who stays around a lot longer than they should because they just seem so darned likeable (hey, it worked for John Stevens a couple of seasons ago).” Read more.

Levittown’s ‘American Idol’ contestant Kevin Covais was on the line with local pop radio station 106.1 WBLI in Long Island. The show’s geekiest looking contestant spoke with Steve Harper, Dana DiDonato, and Big Randy about getting phone numbers from girls on the show, how he is getting along with the other contestants, Paula Abdul’s jewelery gifts, and “being himself”. Big Randy then closed with a cheer for Covais. WBLI.com has since removed the audio.
