American Idol: Lakisha Jones odds to win unchanged

Despite an amazing performance by Lakisha Jones, her odds to win the American Idol remain unchanged.

Lakisha Jones and American Idol According to the online betting website Bodog, Jones odds to win the sixth edition of the famous American Idol are 12/1. Singing the Bon Jovi hit yesterday, helped none Lakisha Jones to improve those odds. And what appears to be the first sign of some emotion, Simon gave her a somewhat cold kiss, but even this did not help the bookmakers change their mind. Last week's votes are still hanging over Lakisha Jones' head, which will be combined with this week's and the two of the Idols to go home will be determined tonight. American Idol starts at 9/8c on Fox.

Jordin Sparks and Melinda Doolittle are still the favorites to win the Idol with odds of 10/11 and 6/5 respectively.

As two of the American Idol contestants will be leaving the scene, Chris Richardson and Phil Stacey seem to be the two widely believed to be voted off the show.

Blake Lewis and Lakisha Jones are currently in the golden middle, looking at the betting odds, but everything may change tonight and the total vote count could go either way. The total votes this week are expected to be the record number ever for the American Idol in its six years of existence.
