Susan Boyle

The Sun:

The star, who had wept all day, passed out in her bedroom - sparking frantic calls for a doctor. Police were also summoned, but Susan, 48, had ANOTHER tantrum in front of officers before being taken by ambulance to the Priory, where she remained last night.

The Sun told exclusively yesterday how the Scottish virgin - dubbed SuBo - was admitted to the unit in Southgate, North London, suffering from exhaustion.

As she entered the clinic on Sunday she called out for her beloved cat, wailing "Where's Pebbles?" until medics arranged a phone call to the purring pet.

Dance troupe Diversity, winners of TV's Britain's Got Talent, are to appear in a new British film to be shot in 3D.

Fellow competitors Flawless will also appear in the film, as will last year's winner George Sampson.

The film, Street Dance, follows a dance crew in training for the Street Dance Championships who are forced to work alongside ballet dancers.

Distributed by Vertigo Films, it has been described as "the first British movie to be shot in 3D".

Producer James Richardson signed both Diversity and Flawless to the film after seeing them perform last July at the UK Street Dance Championships.

Excerpt from: timesonline.co.uk

Her treatment is being paid for by Simon Cowell, the pop impresario and show panellist, and TalkbackThames, which described her as “exhausted and emotionally drained”. ....

TalkbackThames said that Boyle would be taking only “a few days out for rest and recovery”, but the Priory indicated that it was unlikely that she would be available in time for the Britain’s Got Talent show tour, which begins on June 12. Professor Thompson said that patients were expected to have a 21-day course of treatment. “You have to be referred here by a GP. We are talking about people with a diagnosable mental disorder.”

Hi Tex,
I read this also. I wondered why the Priory staff should be talking at all to the press. Doesn't the UK have confidentiality laws? Hell, if I were admitted to a psychiatric facility and my docs said anything about my course of treatment to my local newspaper, I'd have their guts for garters and sue them right out of business.

Well now, this story just gets more and more dramatic.
Read this article on the Daily Mail Co Uk.
YouTube displayed the WRONG TELEPHONE VOTING NUMBER for Susan Boyle.
All the other contestants had correct numbers.

The problem in Britain is that they confuse a rag like the Sun with a newspaper. We have the nasty internet but it is easy to stay away from that garbage and tabloids simply aren't taken seriously by most people. This article was totally beyond believe. How can they hound this poor sweet, innocent women! She is being told that this was the most important make it or break it moment, the world is watching, and it is hers to lose. What unbelievable pressure. She got through because she loves to sing and be on stage. Unlike diversity, she didn't have a gang around her and plus they didn't get the attention and still aren't. After she rest up with Pebbles she can come to America and get away from the tabloids for awhile. I

Susan Boyle said she wanted to be a professional singer from her first moment in the audition to the short clip before the final. Winning BGT was a means to that end, but not the end itself. She did not aspire to be the Hairy Angel, the spinster, the little old cat lady, the YouTube sensation, etc. Other people gave her those labels. In her first performance she demonstrated raw vocal power, in the second, ability to adapt to different circumstances--a cold, a stationary mike, an audience of milllions with unrealistic expectations, and in the third, ability to deliver her best performance yet, in the face of insults & public hostility.

Sleep deprivation does weird things to people. So she took some time off to rest. Where else could she go except to a celebrity clinic to get some peace & quiet, & get away from the hordes of people, both paparazzi and fans? A convent? Nah. Susan Boyle the singer will be outta there soon, & you ain't seen nothin'yet.

Some savy producer needs to snap her up and put her into musical theater. She's shown she has good stage presence and would be a hit. Those Brits love their musical theater, and with the international youtube publicity, every foreign tourist will be clamoring for the tickets. With the right role, she'll be bigger than "Cats" (which was bigger in London than it was in NY).

The fact that she's a virgin should make it obvious that she' emotionally fragile (trust issues, etc.0, and the people telling all her business in this article are exactly the reason she's having difficulty adkusting to her new situation.
Quite frankly she's realizing that not one of the people currently surrounding her can be trusted, they set her up for a steep drop.
I only hope she hardens quickly and starts stepping on some peoples heads.

I'd be very surprised (and a bit horrified) if that were to happen.

I just remembered that I sang "I Dreamed a Dream" in music camp! I sang as an alto, not a soprano. I was pretty good for a youngin'.

Well, I was first declared a crude alto, and then eventually a mezzo soprano.

Susan Boyle should have stayed with her old life, she was happy that way. I just can't imagine being called frumpy on one hand and on the other swooning over her divine voice, that would be too much for any person to handle especially one as fragile as she is. Stay home Susan with your cat, you will be better off that way.
