Suan Boyle Scandal!
Monday, April 27, 2009
The 47-year-old spinster told viewers of the U.K. TV talent show that she lived alone, had a cat called Pebbles, and had "never been kissed." But it wasn't true.
Boyle, who has competed in countless talent shows, used the line to curry favor with the audience. She told a TV interviewer from U.K. breakfast show GMTV, "That was made as a joke! Never been kissed? I've never stopped."
This has outraged a lot of viewers and fans, for them this was one of the reason why they were so in to her "Ugly Duckling " story.
"Is she a genius for coming up with this? now looking back this looks like a great marketing career"- one view says
While another follower quotes" What I think she meant to say is she has never been kissed, because it's been so long since she has been kissed it feels like forever"
Popwrap.com branded her a "one-trick pony," while NowPublic.com was more understanding: "Do you think a"Now that Susan Boyle has been acknowledged as a singing sensation for her beautiful voice, I think it would be a good idea to declare her the winner of Britain's Got Talent," wrote C.J. Crane from Mallorca in Spain.
Now now, not so fast my above friend. I do recall even Simon Cowell saying that she is NOT a shoe in for the win in this years talent event. Have we also forgot about the 12 yr old kid who sparked charm into the audiences hearts?
"I am glad Simon Cowell looks like he's going to give her a recording contract," said Raymond Rees from Wales.
British fan D.E. Atkins wrote: "The makeover squad should leave Susan Boyle alone. It is her singing and simplicity that people love. Once they start trying to change Susan's image they will spoil her."
But is it too late? Is overnight stardom already threatening to change Susan Boyle? I believe so. On one interview she was joking around so much she kissed her mail man and said. "See, I have been kissed"
Now with her new look and her Burberry outfits the one loves ugly duck has grown in to the swan many people wanted to see., but is this enough? will this be the end of her career or now will more controversy hit?
Since her first audition, the local council has built a fence around her home to discourage autograph-hunters. Boyle has also hired a hunky live-in bodyguard, been seen sporting an expensive leather jacket, and has agreed to go on a date with one of the judges.
All I can say is what's next? a fake tan?
