American Idol: Odds to Win
And then there were 12.
American Idol announced its finalists last night, sending four hopefuls home and naming the following contestants as this season's best. Here are our odds for who will come out on top:
⢠David Archuleta, 1:6. With incredible vocals and gawky teen appeal, he's a bigger favorite than the Patriots were in the Super Bowl. Then again, how did that turn out?
⢠David Cook, 5:2: The success of Chris Daughtry should help Cook. Idol viewers may not wish to make the same mistake as they did with that rocker.
⢠Carly Smithson, 3:1: Sings like a seasoned professional, maybe because she was one. Not going home any time soon.
⢠Jason Castro, 4:1. May look asleep half the time, but appeals to the folkie types that strum their guitars at home until all hours of the night. You know who you are.
⢠Michael Johns, 9:2. Early favorite, has seemed to be coasting the last two weeks. Very attractive.
⢠Brooke White, 6:1: We might be placing her too high, out of hope and affection. But cute underdog has cleverly gone against the loud, diva grain. Love her laid back style.
⢠David Hernandez, 8:1: Rumors of a gay stripping past may actually help this contender. Places him in the news, people notice when he sings quite well.
⢠Ramiele Malubay, 10:1. Reminds us of former American Idol finalist Paris Bennett. Tiny frame, gigantic voice. A few semi-lewd photos on Facebook.
⢠Kristy Lee Cook, 15:1: Hasn't sung too well yet, but the combination of cuteness and a country twang may give her a secure niche for a few weeks.
⢠Syesha Mercado, 18:1. Strong vocal talent, but a bit over-the-top for our taste. Your basic diva.
⢠Amanda Overmyer, 20:1 : The designated "rock chick" will only make news if there really are naked pictures out there, as rumors have stated. Won't be winning any titles on this show.
⢠Chikezie Eze, 50:1. Seems like a nice guy, but Britney Spears will win Mother of the Year before Chikezie wins American Idol.
Who do you want to win? Leave a comment. Let us know.

well, thier is some talent for sure this year, the one thing that upset's me the most is that simon, tells these people what he would like to see, on these following weeks, then they listen, and all of a sudden, didn't mean it the way, they they heard it., i say he is the one whom is confused, but must say the guys yes david A, has shown great talent, among his sweet and kind ways, i was praying for the world to give him another chance anyone can mess up, but he pulled it off super, i couldn't imagine to be that young and the pressures on this seventeen year old, i believe that he will be a star the rest of his life, not a quitter like some that has been selected as american idols. i to believe that he will be the winner or runner up, and hope he blows simmon commen's threw one ear and out the other, and to look as simon as he is just like him or i, and its out here in the world the fans thats going to carry you david threw. the girls well Brook would be the one i would want to aleast

I agree except I would put Jason Castro above David Cook - Jason's Hallelujah performance was probably the best I've heard in a long time! I also liked Brooke's "love is a battlefield" another winner in my book!

David Archuleta is sooo cute. He's soooo nice too and the vocals, woah! Don't get me started. I even heard he gets tutored during rehearsals. It's so nice that he hasn't forgotten about the schoolwork. I wonder if he'll be making an appearance at this year's Kid's Choice Awards. They air MARCH 29th @ 8PM. Stay on the lookout for Mr. Archuleta. Oh yea, and Jack Black is hosting the even for a second time around. It's gonna be so awesome. I'm currently working with Nick in getting the word to the masses. The important people, you, the fans.

So glad that little spazzoid is gone too, and I say David Archuleta all the way. You are talented and sweet. I think attitude and ego can ruin a good thing, but you are just a nice person. I would want you to be my friend whether or not you can sing. Lot of talent on this show this year, but you are the shining star for sure!
