Latest odds for Dancing with the Stars 11

The initial bookmakers odds for season 11 of DWTS showed confidence in Jennifer Grey and Brandy , but not so much for Kurt Warner (in fact, Michael Bolton had shorter odds). Kurt is now third favorite, which I find quite surprising given he's good, but not brilliant. Perhaps the football factor is coming into play, where they are more or less guaranteed a number of votes and if they don't screw up they'll be around in the final weeks.

I was quite surprised Brandy moved out so much. I didn't think she deserved to be such a favorite, but she has performed pretty well, and has a good chance to stick around.

Here are the latest odds (with the pre-season odds in parentheses):

  • Jennifer Grey +110 (+200)
  • Rick Fox +350 (+500)
  • Kurt Warner +550 (+2000)
  • Bristol Palin +900 (+2500)
  • Audrina Patridge +1100 (+600)
  • Kyle Massey +1200 (+2500)
  • Brandy +1600 (+250)
  • Mike Sorrentino +5000 (+700)
  • Margaret Cho +6600 (+2500)
  • Florence Henderson +8000 (+5000)

(Example: $1 placed on Kurt Warner to win will get you $5.50 plus your original $1)

Bristol and Kyle has also improved significantly in the odds, while the Sitch has no chance according to the bookmakers.

The bottom line is that Jennifer is the firm favorite.
