Susan Boyle continuing to rock the world -

[maggieblue]

Well, I'm certainly hoping she will make some money from all this!
Am excited about tomorrow night, know the pressure must be horrible on her - quite unfair actually, but then, not much in life is fair... I'm for her win or lose.

Well, on the night, the best act won. It wasn't Ms Boyle.

I am literally aghast, cannot believe that BRITAIN voted for that dance group to win this contest - I think they were one of the worse acts in the finalists.
Wow. What a reflection of what? Anger? Could it be only the younger people voted????

Well, my lady Susan is still the star of the world right now.

I didn't like either of them and if I was going to vote I would have gone for Stavros Flatley because I thought it was hilarious. I think the dance group definitely won because they attracted votes from younger people although the recent adverse media coverage against Susan Boyle probably played a part in her losing. Her behaviour last night seemed a bit eccentric to me although perhaps it was just nerves.

Didn't see all the acts but did catch diversity and thought they were excellent. Worthy winners I would imagine.
I hear Susan Boyle is in the priory. Don't sound like shes cut out for the fame game.

I'm sure she's disappointed that Britain ((including ALL of Scotland)) did not stand behind her and doesn't want to really see anyone for a while - I would have some anger too were I she. I don't imagine she feels like talking to anyone right now either - and the media would be hounding her to pieces were she not hidden away. Very wise decision I though.

She's going to be ok - and will be making a CD soon I would imagine. Britain's Got Talent show is not going to let her go into nothingness, not at this point. The judges loved her.

Maybe you didn't realise, but she came 2nd... its not as if she was last or didn't receive any votes at all! At least she was more gracious in defeat than you appear to be; in fact I'd go as far to say that you are being very bitter about it! Diversity deserved to win as they received the most votes (25% of them apparently!) and it doesn't matter if it was only the younger people that voted as they had the right to do so!

Personally I'm glad its all over and tele can return to relative normality again!
