The show's popularity was unprecedented for a reality television program, reaching record numbers of viewers from the very beginning, and revolutionizing entertainment betting in a powerful way. Vegas Odds On American Idol are considered a precious commodity to die hard Idol loyalists, and have become a valuable tool in online entertainment sportsbook betting.
The judges of American Idol have finally narrowed down the contestants to the top 24. Keith Urban, Jennifer Lopez and Harry Connick Jr. serve as the judges on season 14 of American Idol, and they are adapting well to the many new, exciting changes that have been put in to play by the producers.
The pool of singers was narrowed down to 48 finalists. To make things interesting, the producers threw these 48 contestants out to a live audience during a private concert at the famous House of Blues in West Hollywood. This tested their ability to perform under the pressure of a live audience. Some of them cracked and didn't do so hot while others thrived under the stage lights. After all of the tears, freak-outs, sweat, singing and dancing, here are the top 24 finalists and the people that many viewers have taken to betting on:
Top 12 ladies: Adanna Duru, Alexis Gomez, Jackie 'Jax' Cole, Joey Cook, Katherine Winston, Loren Lott (aka Loren Sharice), Lovey James, Maddie Walker, Sarina-Joi Crowe, Shaina 'Shi' Scott, Shannon Berthiaume, Tyanna Jones

American Idol was created by Simon Fuller and broadcast on FOX from 2002-2016. The show garnered a massive following and sprung many other competition shows including the Voice, Pop Idol, the X Factor, the masked singer, and multiple others. In 2018 after a year off the air American Idol was picked up by ABC for season 16.
Top 12 guys: Adam Ezegelian, Clark Beckham, Daniel Seavey, Mark Andrew Pudas, Michael Simeon, Nick Fradiani, Jr., Qaasim Middleton, Quentin Alexander, Rayvon Owen, Riley Bria, Savion Wright
While all of these performers did well enough to move on to the top 24, some of them rose above the rest. Trevor Douglas is going to be a big hit among the lady voters. He's so charming and put-together that it's easy to forget he is only 16. With his fresh rendition of Elvis' 'Burning Love,' he lit up the stage with his passionate singing and fiery guitar playing.
When Tyanna Jones comes out onto the House of Blues stage, she immediately pulls the audience in with her happy personality. The first notes out of her mouth capture your attention immediately because they are so expansive and big. At only 16 years old as well, her voice is quite mature for her age. Harry Connick Jr. said it best with, '[She] is extremely talented with a lot of potential. Does she have a long way to go? Of course, she's only 16 years old. But [she's a] special young lady.'
Looking at Clark Beckham, you would never guess that there is the soul of an old blues singer inside. As he performed 'Georgia On My Mind' for the House of Blues crowd, anyone could say confidently that Ray Charles would be proud. Jennifer Lopez and Keith Urban were so excited that they even gave him a standing ovation.
Riley Bria wowed the American Idol audience with his 'Love This Pain' by Lady Antebellum. He looked so comfortable on stage, which isn't surprising since he had a big break back in 2012 when he played guitar with Keith Urban at a country awards show. His voice matches his phenomenal guitar skills, and country music lovers everywhere are certainly going to vote to keep this guy around for a while.
For those who are betting on this season of American Idol, it is going to be a wild ride as the Vegas odds on American Idol take shape during each week's performances. All of the top 24 contestants bring something fresh and wonderful to the stage, so calculating who is going to make it to the top is anyone's guess at this point. The odds won't show up quite this early in the game, but once the competition reaches a level where the list of contestants includes only the most refined and most talented voices in the mix, things will start to get very interesting for the show's contestants, judges, audience and those who enjoy betting on American Idol.
Three judges critique the singers' performances, while a nationwide audience votes on the performances to determine who goes and who stays. American Idol has turned out super stars such as Kelly Clarkson, Carrie Underwood, and David Cook, all of which are house hold names throughout the USA.
The show was created by Simon Fuller, and is a spin off of the British sensation: Pop Idol.

I write about sports and I write about music and TV. So I thought I’d combine all of these into one column — I will use my handicapping skills to give Vegas-style odds for each remaining “American Idol” contestant.
This year, I’ve been rather surprised as to how good the “AI” reboot has been. Perhaps it’s the quality of the judges — Lionel Richie, Katy Perry and Luke Bryan — who have picked the amateur talent that remains.
The show is down to the final 10, and the American public now gets to vote for who survives each week, but the judges can influence that vote through their praise, or lack thereof, of the performers. As well, they get to “save” a certain number of contestants each week who did not win the popular vote.
In formulating these odds, I not only use my knowledge of music and TV and the history of this show, I also look at their Instagram followings. Instagram users are younger and the type who vote in these contests.
For those who don’t understand how betting odds work, something like 3:1 would mean if you bet $1, you’d win $3, etc. BTW, this is for “entertainment purposes only,” my legal team insists I add.
Anyway, here goes my odds (their Instagram pages are linked/follower numbers listed):
Maddie Poppe(59k followers), 3:1. I’ve been watching “AI” since Year 1 and know the recipe for success. This singer makes great song choices and really understands music. She has a pop-country thing, which also seems to work on this show. She has girl-next-door looks, and is humble, which voters appreciate. She also has a unique falsetto she transitions into. I don’t see her as inferior to “AI’s” biggest winners, Carrie Underwood and Kelly Clarkson, and is that same all-purpose style of performer. Despite a weaker social media presence than most other remaining contestants, I can see her winning.
Ada Vox(49k followers), 4:1. This performer puts on show-stopping, over-the-top performances. But will it be too much? Unlike Poppe, there’s not much subtly there. Still, at 4:1, Vox is a near-favorite. ADD (4/29): ELIMINATED! I believe the public just felt Vox was not much more than a diva. The novelty wore off

Jurnee(46k followers), 5:1. She didn’t get the popular vote last week and had to be saved by the judges. A smooth professional-level stylist, she may come off as too cool for school. This show is part popularity contest, after all. But she is just 18 — lots of room for adjustment in the weeks ahead.
Cade Foehner(100k followers), 7:1. A rocker, he definitely reminds me of Jim Morrison. But the problem is, “AI” has themed weeks — this coming week is based on Disney music. This hurts rock-style performers. Chris Daughtry, a past rocking “AI” contestant with an even better voice, just placed 4th on the show in its fifth season — though, the good news is, dear 100,000 Cade fans, Daughtry went on to sell 8 million albums.
Catie Turner(166k followers), 10:1.While she has an incredible voice and is a goofy fan favorite, she did have a poor performance two weeks ago, where she decided to dance and hop around on stage a la “Kidz Bop.” She learned from that and has been more restrained of late. But, for a Vegas bettor, she’s too unpredictable to bank on.
Caleb Lee Hutchinson(85k followers), 15:1. A deep-voiced country singer who probably will fall down a peg during specialty themed weeks. Not multi-dimensional enough to win what, in essence, is a variety show.
Gabby Barrett(144k followers), 25:1. For bettors who like longshots, this wager may end up a windfall. She has shown glimpses of the talent of the more polished singers noted above, but she’s only 18 and can improve week by week. Lots of Instagram followers help.

Michael J. Woodard(42k followers), 35:1. Talented, yes, and he did get plenty of popular votes last week. But is he as marketable as some of the other performers on this list? Could you picture him selling out MetLife Stadium?

Michelle Sussett(90k followers), 75:1. I was surprised the judges saved her last week. The depth just isn’t there. ADD (4/29): ELIMINATED! As predicted.

Dennis Lorenzo(23k followers), 100:1. At 27, this performer is not a fan favorite. The judges saved him with their last vote last week. He seems to be a bit behind on style, wearing the unbent baseball cap with the label still on it, a fad that is long over. Poor social media following. Save your money. ADD (4/29): ELIMINATED! Too bad, because his performance tonight was good. Unfortunately, he went last, so didn’t benefit from early voting.
And that’s that. If you are a fan of one of the longshots, I apology for any criticism that may offend you. I’m merely speaking from a degenerate bettor’s perspective. Hey, they’re all better than me. Good luck, all!
