Susan Boyle is another example of what I think is wrong with this world. That girl should have been recognized for her talent years ago. But no thanks to the mainstream media, people have been taught to look at only certain aspects of a person's talent, which is why we have manufactured crap like the Jonas Brothers and Britney Spears.Ray wrote:Yeah Susan Boyle was a surprising inspiration.

I just did a Google Image Search of Susan Boyle, and to me, she looks just fine! There is nothing wrong with her appearance at all.Millhouse wrote: Susan Boyle is another example of what I think is wrong with this world.

It made me so very, very sick to read message board after message board, even news articles of random morons that we share the same air with in today's society after Susan's first win on the show, stating how 'ugly' she is.
I have to wonder sometimes if we as human beings are not degenerating as a society. I'm tired of these types of 'social standards' that dictate whether or not a person can win or lose based on appearance, and not based at all on talent. Even at the show, the audience assumed she was going to just flop because of the way she looked, and I find that completely disgusting, how much we've been conditioned by the very same mainstream media that says sports should be popular to think that people are going to be horrible people just because of their appearance.
That's all, rant over, I'm glad she won as well. Now, if she'll just avoid getting facelifts and losing weight (unless she is concerned about her health) for the sake of stardom, she may become one of the most appreciated artists ever in my book.

Susan Boyle: "I'm Happy the Way I Am - Short and Plump"
Monday April 20, 2009
Susan Boyle doesn't care what you think about the way she looks.
"Maybe I'll consider a makeover later on," she told the London Times on Saturday. "For now I'm happy the way I am รข?? short and plump. I would not go in for Botox or anything like that. I'm content with the way I look. What's wrong with looking like Susan Boyle? What's the matter with that?"
She said she's been "very taken aback especially by all the American people who have been kind enough to say nice things about me. I didn't expect that. People have been very kind." (She had "no comment" when asked if a record deal was in the works.)
As for her sudden fame -- more than 20 million people have watched her "I Dreamed a Dream" performance -- Boyle, 48, admitted, "I've got a lot to learn about a lot of things. This is all very new to me. I went to bed one night, just me, and woke up in the morning to a group of about 30 children outside chanting my name. Then I came home from my brother's, and it was like the paparazzi were all in the street."
Although she is favored to win Britain's Got Talent, Boyle said, "I'm taking baby steps at the moment. I'm just an ordinary person trying to make it as a professional singer. I really don't want to change all that much."
As for her claims that she's never been kissed?
"Oh, I was just joking around," she said. "It was just banter and it has been blown way out of proportion. I was about to go on stage and I was very nervous."
"All I want to say is that I am single at the moment, but I keep waiting," she said. "I am not on the hunt. I am happy as I am."
With a laugh, she added, "It's all very embarrassing. What else can I say? It's personal."
