Another installment of the most popular TV show American Idol is coming up tomorrow.

American Idol: Final Four Odds Over the past two weeks, over 135 million votes were cast to see who would make the final four. Last week’s unprecedented double vote-off was the result of previous week’s Idol Gives Back special, in which no contestants were voted off in the spirit of charity.

The final 4 contestants on the American Idol are Blake Lewis, Jordin Sparks, Lakisha Jones and Melinda Doolittle.

We look at Bodog Sports, the online betting website with best odds for entertainment wagering, to see who the bookmakers think has the best chances of winning the American Idol. And Jordin Sparks seems to be the undisputed favorite with betting odds 1/1, followed by Melinda Doolittle with 7/5, Blake Lewis with odds 7/2 and the underdog for the sixth American Idol is Lakisha Jones with odds 12/1.

Jordin Sparks is 17, former Overall Spotlight Winner at the 2004 GMA Academy, however she received some of her worst critiques last week by the judges.

Melinda Doolittle, 29, former Nashville backup singer, seems to be the crowd's favorite and overall she has only received one negative comment, which judges admit was not that terrible.

Lakisha Jones is a 27-year old single mother from Fort Meade, Maryland and blew the judges away with her rendition of Aretha Franklin's "Think".

Blake Lewis is 25 year-old and quickly became one of the favorites among the American Idol, season 6 contestants. Blake is from Bothell, Washington. There is a rumor going on that the former contender in the American Idol Antonella Barba may have a little love connection going on with Blake Lewis, according to People magazine.
