" We&amp;amp;#8217;re all going to find out soon enough&amp;amp;#8212;but if Simon Cowell had to predict the winner of Fox&amp;amp;#8217;s American Idol, he&amp;amp;#8217;d put his money on rocker Lee Dewyze over the other finalist, crooner Crystal Bowersox. &amp;amp;#8220;If you&amp;amp;#8217;d asked me five or six weeks ago, 100 percent I would have said Crystal [Bowersox],&amp;amp;#8221; the 50-year-old judge told fellow judge Ellen Degeneres on her talk show May 25, &amp;amp;#8220;but now I&amp;amp;#8217;ve changed my mind. I think Lee [DeWyze] is going to win.&amp;amp;#8221; Lee and Crystal, both 24, gave their final performances last night, and now America will vote and the results will be broadcast live tonight, which is also Simon&amp;amp;#8217;s last day on the hit reality show. &amp;amp;#8220;I am feeling a bit sad because we&amp;amp;#8217;re nearly there. But at the same time, do you remember that last three weeks when you were leaving school, and you kind of couldn&amp;amp;#8217;t wait to get out? It&amp;amp;#8217;s a little bit like that,&amp;amp;#8221; he said. &amp;amp;#8220;I&amp;amp;#8217;m not being ungrateful. I&amp;amp;#8217;ve had a fantastic time, and the show changed my life, but I just kind of knew it was time to do something different.&amp;amp;#8221; We&amp;amp;#8217;re totally bummed to see Simon go, but we&amp;amp;#8217;re stoked to see who finally takes home the prize. Okay, readers, it&amp;#x27;s your turn to weigh in: Who do you think is going to be crowned the next Idol? Team Lee or Team Crystal? --Written by Kirstin Benson for hollywoodlife.com More from Hollywood Life * Mackenzie Phillips on Embracing Sobriety * Lindsay Lohan Gets A Post-Court Lip &amp;amp; Hair Makeover! * Wow!
