"Chicken Little" Low on the Pecking Order

Kevin Covais, the bespectacled 16-year-old from Levittown, N.Y., might have been first in the hearts of 80-year-old dowagers everywhere.  But he was also the second of the top 12 voted off "American Idol," which wasn't good enough to earn him a guest shot on Leno or Letterman.

But also-rans of a feather flock together, so he fit in quite nicely Friday night on Jimmy Kimmel's talk show.  I think it's on VH1 or something.

Covais was best known not for his mighty baritone, but for getting his cheeks pinched by the female contestants, and for being compared to the CGI character "Chicken Little."

If that all weren't bad enough, when Kimmel brought the amateur songster onstage, he introduced him as "sweet, little Kevin Covais."  Thanks, Jimmy.  That'll really help him get laid.

A woman who works at my cafeteria insisted I look EXACTLY like the "chicken little guy from american idol". Now I know who she was talking about...I'm pretty mortified, I must say. Does this mean I'll never get laid either? Ohhh dearie.
