This post got deleted somehow. Thanks Rosa for letting me know.
God love Ms Boyle for being such a trooper. Just being a big city would overwhelm someone who had lived in a village all their life. But to be known by folks across the planet and having to go on and perform live is unbelievable pressure. I hope she gets out there and rocks tomorrow night.
From BGT’s website.
Newspaper reports of an emotional outburst from Susan, as well as supposed threats to leave, “have been taken out of context, and are not serious or true”.
The spokesperson said, “Susan Boyle is still very much part of the Britain’s Got Talent. She is looking forward to the Grand Final and she is rehearsing hard to prepare for the biggest night of her life”.
“She, like all of our contestants, is being closely looked after by programme makers. Susan’s personal welfare is very important to us, and we will continue to do everything we can to make sure she remains happy and well”.
Why did they allow anything to happen if they were looking after her?
After causing an unprecendented global sensation, Susan Boyle has swapped a quiet village life for the centre of a media frenzy, with the whole world looking on.
But the Bathgate lady, dubbed ‘the most famous woman in the world’, is dealing with the transition well.
She has confirmed, “I want nothing more than to stay and sing in the Britain’s Got Talent final”.
“I’ve spent weeks rehearsing – it’s all I’ve been thinking about. I’m not going to throw away my big chance now”.
That doesn’t mean people weren’t trying to ruin it.
Besides the UK, there were well wishes from Nigeria, Serbia, France, Mexico, Phillipines, Canada, Brazil, Hong Kong, Russia, Puerto Rico, Spain and USA in just the first few pages of comments.
Here is one I found touching. Something that can’t be measured in record sales or TV ratings.
