Kevin Covais – Maturity WAY Beyond His Years!

I was rewatching an American Idol episode recently and was struck AGAIN at how Kevin handles himself. The kid could give lessons to people much older.

I have to admit, I don’t think he’s the best singer in the group – not when Chris Daughtry, Ace Young, Mandisa, Katharine McPhee. Lisa Tucker, and Bucky Covington are sharing the stage. The average person would pale in comparison to them… but it’d be hard to imagine this season without him. He’s added a lot of smiles and laughter to the shows and I absolutely LOVE his spirit and attitude.

I just have to wonder, why do people get so mad at contestants? I mean, if you go to the Idol Forums – sometimes other fan bases will go around to other threads and bash the poster’s favorite. What do they hope to accomplish by that?! I saw quite a few lashing out at Kevin and his fans this morning. Come on, he’s a great kid! And people are entitled to like and dislike who they choose – they don’t need anyone’s permission to have a favorite.

My personal favorites are Chris, Ace, Mandisa and Bucky – and I like Lisa more and more each time she opens her lovely mouth.

I can’t wait to hear them all tomorrow night!
