Mediawatcher, did you watch BGT?
Diversity and Flawless had to choreograph themselves 3 different routines, Susan Boyle sang two different songs which were written by someone else. Yes her voice is good, I was impressed the first time I saw her, but her antics and the histrionics I found disgusting, and as soon as she had taken the limelight of the deserved winners (Diversity), she straight away went into one and caused the limelight to be on her. IF she was as frail as she was implying after the finals of BGT then she would not be able to take all this. The woman is an actress, a good one I'll give her that, but an actress none the less. There was mention that she had mental problems which caused her to react the way she did, but her brother said she never. TO do as she did was pretty calculating.

If Susan Boyle likes what she sees during her visit to L.A and decided to move to the States I wouldn't blame her one little bit - she's definately got a lot more friends there compared to a lot of the vile things that have been said back home in the UK. Seems we love to put people on a pedestal and then delight in dragging them back off it again.

Dear E Sullivan, things are different for her now, maybe this is why she is feeling less stressed. Her dvd is nearly ready to go, people have stopped calling her a one song wonder and nasty names, and the tense buildup to the BGT final is over, and all this makes it easier for her to relax a bit now maybe, do you think?

Funny how she is not getting stressed at all the fuss and attention now, and it is more than at BGT. What a fake woman. I really do not like her now, and hope that she is a 5 minute wonder

Oh! boy, she deserves all the fun she is getting after what she did with the song "Wild Horses" .Susan is unique and very talented. The song is hers now.
