First off, I have seen gambling sites split over who they think will win. I've seen one go for Squinty, and another for His Hawtness. I have no idea how gambling works, so...
Some spoilers for you, via MJ and her sources...
************************************************
The contestants, as always, will perform three songs. The first is supposedly chosen by Clive Davis ( bad news for SexOnLegs... Davis hates him. I doubt this rumor, though, since Davis was fired from his label a few weeks ago and wouldn't be producing the upcoming album. Why let someone who has no way of controlling the final product pick the song? I don't doubt that the new head of the label will be involved, though. Still tough on DC, since the label has had their eye on Squintot since the auditions, seeing the tween dollar signs light up). The second will be chosen by the contestants- either on previously done or a new song. The third- the craptastic schlock. Rumor is that there is a songwriters song twist, though. Seriously, can you imagine the Davids singing the same song?
All the top twelve will be back, there will be celebrities and duets ( Jason says the top five will all duet with a celeb). Bo Bice will be there ( Yahoo!!!!), as will eleven past Idols, two from each season.
Paula is supposed to sing, according to Yahoo. Aren't we glad, gurls, that we will be drinking. Heavily.
My ten year old is ecstatic since the Jonas Brothers are playing. One Republic is also supposed to be there.
I'll keep listening. And telling.

Jonas Effing Brothers? Ouch.
I am down with the Davids singing the same song. One will suck, and one will.not.suck.

Yes, the Jonas Brothers. A clear play for the tweens of the world's eyeballs.
I focken hate them, but I must put up with them as my daughter is ten and wants to marry Joe. Or was it Nick? Or the third one? I can never tell them apart.

Maybe Squinty can join them as the fourth T!T when he loses AI to His Hotness.

He sings better than they do.

Some of the betting sites are actually matching up Derby/Preakness winner as being similar to David Cook for odds...
Uh oh....I feel a blog post MAY be coming up, despite my need for sleep.

I heard that earlier. I'm no expert on gambling at the least ( it involves numbers and I can barely add. 2+2=6, right?)
Apparently, if you head to the wrong site, you lose money if you bet on Cook and he wins. That's how sure they are. I know that was the problem with the winner of The Preakness today, from the two lines I saw on MSNBC.

DC will take it all. Santa said so. And Squintsforbrains is going on tour with Johnny Mathis.

Don't forget Wayne Newton and Pat Boone, Phoenix.

And Perry Como. Someone who shall remain nameless compared him to Perry Como.
Mr. Big 05/18/08
Perry Como was my first choice. Until I learned he was dead, of course. Then Lawrence Welk. No? Dead, too. Hmmm, Johnny Mathis it is. And I hear the Osmond Brothers are opening for him.

That's a nightmare scenario. Mathis and the Osmonds. *shudder*.
