American Idol's Becky O'Donohue Steps Up to Maxim's Plate  2/23/06

American Idol final 24 contestant Becky O'Donohue along with her twin sister Jessie are in the news today not for Becky's performance on Tuesday night but for some racy photos the pair made for Maxim magazine in 2004.  The twins posed for the baseball themed pictures in a spread entitled "Fallacy Baseball in 2004".  (see here)

While the photos are tame by internet standards they have caused a stir from Idol fans seeking to get a peak at them.   The most revealing pictures show the girls in towels, with unbuttoned jerseys and in swimsuits.  It is doubtful that the exposure will cause Idol bosses to take any action and the photos came to light after this weeks voting opportunity.  More damaging to her Idol chances was the lukewarm reception Becky's performance received on Tuesday night's Idol episode.

Becky is a 45-1 long shot to win this years title according to recently posted betting odds related to the competition.
