Everytime I have seen this guy during the shows, I kept thinking he reminded me of a cartoon character. I can't decide if it's:

Egghead Jr.

or

Chicken Little

I love him. I think this kid is adorable. If he improves every week I will vote for him. GOOO KEVIN!!!

Love the Chicken Little comparison...

Personally, I don't think he'll make the Top 12 (nor do I think he should). However, if he does make the Top 12, I think he'll be this season's Jim Verraros and will get an early boot.

I think he is absolutely precious. He has a great voice but I don't know if he'll make it to the Top 12. His parents were so proud of him and that just made my heart smile!

I don't think he can win, but he should reach the top twelve without too many problems.

nemo78 · 02-16-2006, 04:27 PM

Damn, he looks like a 10 year old kid in those pictures!

After seeing his performance with the "Ratpack" group, I think he could do well. We'll see how his first performance goes.

That's hilarious! I thought of Charlie Brown when I saw him on Wednesday. Anyway, he seems like a nice kid. Hope Simon isn't too mean to him.
