That is exceptionally high for 4 days. She's going to appear on Oprah, and none other than Demi Moore has endorsed her in her blog. Crazy-haired unkissed wifey>talent show>international singing sensation FTW WTF. The biggest surprise was the Demetriou dancer guy though, clearly 'the old man's Gene Kelly' http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PZnE2CD8ibw |

Young lad Shaid (sp?) closing the show was superb.
However it annoys me that they treat us as if we are stupid.
Simon stopping the lad whilst doing a version of Valerie (pretty well imo) and asking if he does anything else, lad comes out with an outstanding performance of a Michael Jackson number and Simon tries to look like the hero.
He auditoned, you knew what he could do Simon, you could have done away with the "aren't I so clever" pisch and got him to sing the Michael Jackson number from the start.

Agreed seemed so set up. |

I don't think she is that special tbh. Great song sung adequately is more than enough to send tingles down your spine, which she did. Not even close to professional standard.

agree to an extent, although wouldn't say 'not even close' to professional standard. It's a bloody difficult song to sing and no many people of a standard other than professional could carry it at all. I don't think she's good enough to win though. What was really great about it was the way she stuck it in everyone's eye. Good on her! |

lol good call: http://susan-boyle.britains-got-talent.co.uk/2009/04/susan-boyle-record-deals-simon-cowell.htmlShe doesn't need to win it, she is already bigger than the show, with an appearance on Oprah coming her way too. |

Pretty much what my friend who is a musician said. @Dave, Cowell has signed her purely because she will sell records and make him money. |
