Boyle-over (GNW 1/6/09: Blow Up Your Pants)

British reality singing sensation Susan Boyle has shocked fans with a pair of outbursts filled with four-letter words. You know, words even I can’t say, like “ugly”, “mong” and “huge” “head” “with” “tiny” “face”.

Looks like she’ll be a shoe-in for “Britain’s Got Attitude”. / “Britain’s got Tood”.

She might’ve swore and ranted, but at least it was in an angelic soprano.

Proof of what we all suspected. She may have a nice voice, but deep down, she really is ugly. / Turns out she’s just as sweet as she looks.

Clearly, because she can sing, she deserves being humiliated and insulted by strangers. I know I get it all the time. It’s hard being so… amazing.

But being hassled by strangers for your ugliness is just the downside of being a C-grade minor celebrity. If only there was also an upside.

Observers believe the fame has gone to her head. And the last thing she needs is for her head to get any bigger.

She’s mega-famous for being a singer who’s unusually ugly! What’s she got to complain about?

She threw her first tantrum when a “Britain’s Got Talent” judge praised one of her rivals – a 12-year-old boy. How unfair that they should praise someone who’s conventionally good-looking!

Well that’s the end of her career. We only liked her when her ugliness was confined to the outside.

Commentators are saying that fame has gone to her head. Luckily, this time next year, no-one will give a shit about her.

Interesting that she can drop the f-word even though she’s never had one.

Of course, we all hoped a sweet innocent like Susan Boyle would use swear words like “smooch”, “ploppy” and “boobies”.

But the show’s called “Britain’s Got Talent”, not “Britain Conforms to Superficial Notions of Mainstream Attractiveness”! LEAVE HER ALONE!
