If money talks then it looks like curtains for “cruise ship crooner” Sami Brookes in this year’s X Factor.
William Hill have slashed her price of elimination to 5/2 following heavy support but she can still be backed at 3/1 with Blue Square if you are quick!
“Sami has been backed off the boards by punters who obviously think Gary’s comments last weekend about her being a cruise ship crooner were pretty close to the truth,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.
Others prominent in the betting to get the boot include Johnny Robinson, who can be backed at 5/1, ahead of Frankie Cocozza, Kitty Brucknell and Rhythmix who are all 6/1 shots.
