Susan Boyle As You Have Never Seen Her Before

Posted Fri May 1, 2009 1:24pm PDT by Andy Pemberton in Musictoob

Susan Boyle could have been discovered 25 years ago when she performed on video at a local talent show.

Video has emerged of Susan Boyle singing back when she was a comely 22-year-old.

The tape was unearthed by Gerry McGuinness, 61, who was in the audience that night at Motherwell Football Club's social club in Scotland.

"She was so shy, but she was also very attractive back then--she turned a few heads when she came in. She didn't win the contest, though," he said.

"I didn't recognize Susan as the girl on my video when I first saw her on Britain's Got Talent until a relative called and asked me if I still had the tape.

"It's great she is finally getting some recognition."


Missed Opportunity: JOAN COLLINS REFUSES TO KISS LILY ALLEN

Seventy-one-year-old acting legend Joan Collins refused to kiss Lily Allen when the pair met at a party to celebrate to 100 years of London store Selfridges.

Lily Allen was left hanging as Collins declined a showbiz air kiss with the 22-year-old singer. Allen pretended to be unruffled by the experience, but then posted a tweet about her humiliation shortly afterwards.

"Omg, was just introduced to Joan Collins, shook her hand and went to kiss her on the cheek. 'I don't kiss people I don't know.' AMAZING!" she wrote.

Hey, Lily never heard of swine flu. You can't be too careful.

 

Missed opportunity: OASIS ARE TOO TERRIFIED OF SWINE FLU TO LEAVE THEIR VENEZUELAN HOTEL ROOM

Oasis stayed locked in their hotel rooms after performing in Caracas, Venezuela, terrified of contracting swine flu.

Or, at least, their management were. Singer Liam Gallagher was indifferent to the threat of the killer bug. He spent his time posting Tweets mocking his management's caution.

"In Caracas, top gig, sat in me room in silence as my TV doesn't work, not allowed to leave the hotel for fear of being tickled to death," he wrote.

He also took the opportunity to take a swipe at his brother Noel who recently said the band would not record another record for five years because Liam was so unpleasant to deal with.

"It won't be a five-year break if I've got anything to do with it," said Liam menacingly.

Why worry? There are BIGGER things to do in life like record comedy and music.

I'm one man who after looking at Susan, can believe 100% that she's never been kissed.

106. Dave -

110. Yahoo! Music User -
Ok, so all you people who go on here just to make fun of Susan must have some pretty pathetic lives. If you don't like her, don't look at her!!! I can't believe how shallow you people are. . . .and I can guarantee that you probably aren't super models yourself. . .

111. Yahoo! Music User -
I betcha' Susan has to shave at least 3 times per day!!

112. steven -

Awesomeness...Swine flu...i dread it...i hope we don't have to live like the people in "I Am Legend"....

114. Colorado -
She's doing OK and another thing - I'm a musician and that background music for the way we are stinks, she could've done better with better background. She's probably also had a lot of musical training between then and now and matured a whole lot.
I'm older too, and sure don't think letting "the self go" has anything to do with being young and sexy and getting old. Apples/oranges.

All of you have a mean spirit.Pay day is comming to yuo all the seed you sow is the seed you reap .

116. Yahoo! Music User -
We get it

She has always been repulsive to look at

117. Yahoo! Music User -
Turned heads my rear end...ever heard the 'train wreck' effect? Sheesh! Even back then she was manly and homely looking and had crooked English teeth and sorry but her voice was very hotel banquet-like as well!

118. Cindi -
She's inspirational, you gotta love her! Go Susan!

119. Patty B -
Not so bad looking. I think John H might be jealous though I guess that's why he's not showing his face.

120. Yahoo! Music User -
This sista got some soul! Drink it up y'all!
