Susan Boyle lost her cool after launching a foul mouthed tirade at her favourite judge Piers Morgan after he praised her Britain's Got Talent rival on the show, it has been reported.
Boyle ranted at a TV in front of hotel guests as she watched Morgan heap praise on young singer Shaheen Jafargholi as 'the best singing performance we have heard in the semi-finals so far,' is is claimed.

That apparently didn't go down too well with the Scottish warbler who allegedly stuck two fingers up at the TV and shouted 'f**k off' before storming off to her hotel room.

Just what I was thinking Kitty, he does get a lot of bad press himself, must admit I like Shaheen, but both sets of dancers are brilliant and my OH likes the Greek lads...lol

Am I the only one who thinks susan got an unfair advantage by getting all the media attention since the first show ?

I think there should have been a block on anyone being interviewed by anyone until after the finalists were revealed.

I felt sorry for all the other acts on the first semi final show, it was obvious she was going to get in as overall winner of that show, in fact I predicted the two that went through with ease that night

I think if you body read her, that she is very shy and she appears 'bolshie' and nervous, I will be the same next year when I appear on there!!!!!!.... but I think she should have been kept out of the media until she either won or lost, because there are some really good acts on there this year and it's not in the bag yet.

Yup, that was a copy and paste. Not fair getting blamed for what the media say. ;)


I have read that Susan Boyle suffered from lack of oxygen at birth and apparently had brain damage as a result. One thing this might lead to is some lack of impulse control. That could explain some erratic behaviour.

Not to mention just the overwhelming situation -- from being a "nobody" to being a public figure, subject to public comment and the whims of public opinion (as manipulated by the media of course). One minute you're the public's sweetheart, the next minute they have a new crush, and heaven help you if you act human once in a while.

Joan I think you're missing the point of the post by focussing on Susan's nationality being mentioned but not Shaheen's.

The same could be said of the mention of 'young' shaheen but no mention of the 'middle-aged' Susan...lol

I also agree that she has had an unfair advantage over the others, but I also think that the semi-finals have all been set up so that certain acts do get through to the final. Take last night, it was obvious that Shaheen was going to get through, and deservedly so, the kid's brilliantly talented. We also guessed that as the girl dance group were also making a political statement, they would NOT go through. Given the choice of the remaining 'acts' the only other option was Stavros Flatley.

That about sums up my views Janey, only you manage to say it without the babbling...lol...

I could not get up on a stage and sweep it in front of that amount of people so to have the guts to get up there and sing, well I take my cap off to her.

There was a problem at birth with her. I dont know to what extent though.
She has a great voice and I just hope she is not in for to big a blow if she doesnt win.
And it's not just cause she is a Scot she said F off lol

It getting worse,

She rose to sudden fame as an unassuming Everyman, but last night Susan Boyle’s life took a distinctly celebrity turn after a spat at a hotel ended in police intervention.

Does this lady have any family or friends looking after her, because if not the pressure of suddenly becoming 'famous' must be intense..

Must be hard for her,suddenly getting all that attention. You just dont know what is going through her mind.She probaly thought she would win.
