Not one week after my pal The Chauffeur glossed Kevin Covais “Kevin Michael Hall” he is gone to obscurity along with the likes of Long Duck Dong.
Yes, folks, lispy Kevin was voted off American Idol last night. Forget the fact that Bucky Covington, who was the runner-up for elimination, was much worse on Tuesday night. The fact is Kevin’s days were numbered, because he’s simply not the singer some of the remaining contestants are.
Last night’s Ford commercial featuring all of the remaining contestants was a video of them singing the Go-Go’s “We Got the Beat.” Processed cheese at its finest, that’s all I have to say.
Then they had to fill the 30 minutes, so they let Barry Manilow come and sing one of the songs from his new fifties album. The fact that I don’t remember his performance means one of two things….I am getting old, or it was not memorable. I’m going with the latter. But the best part was when all of the contestants rushed the stage at the end, including the recently voted off Big Gay Mexican Priest…..that dude looked like he was going to either start humping Barry Manilow or eat him.
So here are the updated Marley Power Rankings:
1. Mandisa
2. Chris Daughtry
3. Paris Bennett
4. Katharine McPhee
5. Taylor Hicks
6. Kellie Pickler
7. Lisa Tucker
8. Elliott Yamin
9. Ace Young
10. Bucky Covington
This is getting interesting folks……but now we get to see how the world of Kevin Michael Hall changes when he returns to Long Island. Bucky and Ace, your plane tickets are in the mail too.
Marley, OUT.
