Susan responds to quit rumours

As it continues its relentless ascent into the stratosphere, the Susan Boyle rollercoaster has hit some unexpected obstacles this week, as claims she will sensationally QUIT Britain’s Got Talent are splashed all over the press.

Giving her first interview since the rumours hit the papers, Susan talks openly to the Got Talent website about what’s being said on her behalf and how she feels about the future…

BGT: Hi Susan, how are you feeling today?

SB: I’m feeling very well, bright as a button in fact!

BGT: There have been reports in the papers that you are “exhausted” and on the verge of a “breakdown”, are there any truth to these?

SB: None whatsoever. I’m not stressed and I’m certainly not on the verge of a breakdown! I’ve never felt more positive, it’s all nonsense.

BGT: In today’s papers the Daily Star has reported that you want to quit the show – is this true?

SB: No! There is absolutely no truth in that either, there is no way I am quitting the show. The only way I’d leave the show is if Simon Cowell kicked me out!

BGT: Your fans have no need to worry then?

SB: They don’t need to worry about me quitting that’s for sure! All I can say to everybody is some of the stories about me in the papers are just untrue… I’m not going anywhere; I just want to concentrate on my singing.

BGT: So how are you feeling about what lies ahead… confident?

SB: I can only concentrate on the song I’d like to sing if I make it through to the next round. I wouldn’t say confident, I’m nervous in fact… but nerves can be a good thing because they make you do your best on the big night.

BGT: Are there any messages you would like to give your supporters?

SB: Well I’d like to say all the best to everybody on Britain’s Got Talent, and to everyone who has supported me so far I’d like to say thank you – it is very much appreciated. All I can promise is to do my best and confirm to everyone that I’m not leaving the show… I can’t say fairer than that can I?!

What a shambles last night - there was no way someone regardless of age should get a second chance. Thanks to that second change it would have been Greg in the final. Did Simon not realise what he was reproducing Freddy Mercury and the opera singer he performed with (the large lady whose name I cannot remember). That guy should never be a waiter - in fact someone should open a chain of the Restaurant Bergamos where all waiters are professional opera singers of a very high quality sorry Greg.

The press can ruin anything. I hope all contestants do their best tonight and be themselves. We love Susan for who she is. She has a great voice and great possibilities. Ilove Hollie too but she has her whole life ahead of her and Susan does not. Let's give her a chance. She will sell the records no question. So many talented people in this show this time. I pulling for Susan to win.

I dont think anyone of us regular people realize what Susan is going thru. Forget about her talent or her chances etc. She is a person, living her life, running after a dream before "time runs out" on her. Now she has become public property under scrutiny.... please lets not forget she is a person, like you and me.

to be honest, i dont really like susan that much, i mean she has a nice personality, but i dont think shes as talented as the media makes her out to be. i didnt like her performance at the semi-final. and i know that some of the other acts, like aidan, or diversity, theyre younger so they would need this more. no offence to the susan fans, this is just what i think. :)

The guys standing around the corner are Ant and Dec, the hosts of the show. Two of the funniest people on the planet.

brigitte7012/05/2009 14:31:32

I can't imagine the judges prefering anything else to Susan's performance ! Where can we find a "clean" version without the comments of the two guys standing around the corner ?

Susan you are great!! Keep it coming and I'm voting for you!!

You are a special person to many people, a model of courage and inner beauty. Your voice is a medicine for the soul. Go on your way and follow your instinct. I'm with you, here in Romania!
