I have been a fan of American Idol since the first season, and I know that America picks the winners, but I think I found a way to predict the winners by comparing YouTube views. Let's see if I'm correct!

Today we have Twitter, Facebook and YouTube that keep us up-to-date on all that is American Idol. So, I thought to myself, "is that how America votes?" do they choose the Idol by popularity on these social networks?

While I was watching recap videos on YouTube, out of all five finalists, Janell Arthur had the lowest views -- she was voted off last night. That got me thinking I could predict who was going to win American Idol this year just by YouTube views.

Based on my scientific research, I have predicted in what order the final four will finish this year.

Will my predictions be right?

American Idol Winner!
