Louisa Johnson shortest price X Factor finalist in history

Louisa Johnson is the shortest price X Factor finalist there has ever been, according to leading bookmaker Coral who make the Essex girl the 1-5 favourite to be crowned the winner this weekend. Reggie ‘N’ Bollie are second best in the betting at 9-2, much shorter than the 100-1 available on the duo ahead of the opening live show of the series, while Che Chesterman is the outsider of the three finalists at 14-1.

“Anything other than a Louisa win this weekend would be one the biggest surprises in X Factor history as the 17-year old goes into the final as the shortest price contestant there has ever been at this stage of the competition,” said Coral’s John Hill.

“There will be some punters though who will be hoping for a Reggie ‘N’ Bollie victory as they were as big as 100-1 before the live shows but after capturing the public’s hearts, are now just 9-2 second favourites to win the competition,” added Hill.
