Louis Walsh is the new outright favourite with BetVictor Casino to win this year’s edition of Celebrity Big Brother…
Louis Walsh, on going into CBB:
“I’m not getting any younger and I just want to have fun so when the opportunity for this came up I thought let’s do it”
The 71-year-old former X Factor judge was considered a big outsider to win the show in the opening few episodes but has seen his price plummet in the outright winner market from 33/1 last week into 2/1 favouritism. Walsh has now overtaken previous favourite Nikita Kuzmin (11/5) in the betting, with Colson Smith (7/2) rounding off the top three.
Sam Boswell, spokesperson of BetVictor:
“The start of the final week in the Celebrity Big Brother house has seen a new housemate snatch the favourite tag ahead of Friday’s concluding episode, with Louis Walsh our new frontrunner to win the series.
“Walsh was as high as 33/1 in the outright winner market last week but has been backed all the way into 2/1 as of Monday afternoon, making him the narrow favourite ahead of Nikita Kuzmin (11/5). Colson Smith is third in the betting at 7/2, with David Potts (8/1) also not out of the question.”
Louis has been met with mixed feelings from viewers with many loving his forthright opinions while others find his comments utterly inappropriate – including novelty act Jedward who he managed after they auditioned on The X Factor.
