Antonella Barba Photos Continue to Shock

Gambling911.com, the number one news and information website providing all the latest American Idol betting odds, has published American Idol hopeful Antonella Barba photos that include shocking sexual deviation.

"We are stunned and appalled by these photos," said Gambling911.com's Payton O'Brien.  "She should be terminated from American Idol immediately."

Oddsmakers at BetUS.com (see website here) do not believe that she will be expelled from American Idol, however.

Yesterday, the gambling website, which is endorsed by former Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura, posted odds of +650 that she will be sent packing from the show.  That means gamblers would win $65 for every $10 bet if Ms. Barba does get expelled from American Idol.

"American Idol is a family friendly show that should be enjoyed by individuals of all ages without blatant sexual overtones," O'Brien said.  "Antonella Barba - like Carrie Underwood and Kelly Clarkson and maybe even Clay Aiken - are, by default, role models for today's youth."

Photos depict Ms. Barba in various simulated poses, most of which are too shocking to appear on the Gambling911.com website. 

"Some photos appear to show Antonella drinking what looks like an alcoholic beverage.  She is under the legal drinking age."

If Barba is permitted to stay on the show, her odds of winning are likely to be shortened.  O'Brien explains why.

"Sex craved horndogs and old men who generally do not watch American Idol will be calling in to vote for Antonella Barba.  Her continued presence on the show could spoil its integrity and purity."

Others on the Gambling911.com staff do not necessarily agree with O'Brien's stance.

"She is doing what young girls do," said Gambling911.com reporter, Jenny Woo.  "(American Idol Judge) Paula Abdul is most famous for her hit 'Straight Up' about a male sex organ's non-flacid state.  That was in the late 80's.  Here we are in the year 2007.  Let's get real people!" 

Two of the photos appearing on the Internet show Barba engaged in oral stimulation of a man.  Barba is not married.
