Susan Boyle Vegas Betting Odds Abound

We thought forensic sports handicapping was an overnight sensation nearly four years ago when his sports betting picks going public.

Britain’s Got Talent phenomenon Susan Boyle hopes to have the staying power of Vincent, but there is no better rag to riches story than hers.

Now Irish sportsbook Paddy Power has many a betting option for all things Susan Boyle. With her 15 minutes of fame likely extended for some time, some of the opportunities seem like great bets. Among them:

Will Susan Boyle perform on American Idol in 2009-2010? Considering she is the all-time poster child for reality television at 9-4 she seems like a lock. Will a movie about her be made in Hollywood by 2012? Though seemingly inevitable, the odds have that at 8-1.

The long shot odds don’t seem long enough at 500-1. Those proposition bets include Miss Boyle posing in Playboy. Oh not just anywhere, but as a centerfold. Will she date Mel Gibson?

The top sports handicappers advise against those dark horse bets.

Other reasonable bets including will she meet with US President Barack Obama at the White House before the year is out? Considering he’s been backslapping dictators, inviting Boyle would seem to be good public relations.

The more logical proposition bets include whether or not she wins a Grammy Award or tops the Billboard 200 Album chart.

Either way, the sportsbooks seem to be “Boyleing” over with Hollywood and entertainment betting odds.

Of course she may not be a lock to win Britain’s Got Talent. Sheheen Jafargholi is 10-3 and Flawless is 6-1 to topple the heavy favorite. At 8-1, don’t count out Julian Smith.
