Lil Kim Booted Off Dancing With The Stars: Oddsmakers Call It

May 6 2009 - 10:58am

The odds of rapper Lil' Kim winning this season's Dancing With The Stars never quite reflected the actual results, which during some weeks had the musician voted among the top 3 by judges.

"Lil' Kim's core audience is simply not representative of Dancing With The Star's fan base," says Payton O'Brien of Gambling911.com.  "The oddsmakers are a smart bunch.  They research everything."

Nearly since Day One, Shawn Johnson, Gilles Marini and Melissa Rycroft have each been listed between 2/1 odds and even.  Lil' Kim has consistently found herself in double digits.

Last night on "Dancing With the Stars: The Results," rapper Lil' Kim was eliminated, even though she had scored six points higher in the judges' ranking than the last-place finisher from Monday, rodeo star Ty Murray.

When host Tom Bergeron announced Kim's departure, the audience sounded astonished.

Updated odds on Dancing With The Stars were due out shortly from Sportsinteraction.com
