Susan Boyle Joked About Never Being Kissed
Britain's Got Talent singer Susan Boyle may not be as naive as she would have us believe.
The 47-year-old spinster told viewers of the U.K. TV talent show that she lived alone, had a cat called Pebbles, and had "never been kissed."
But it wasn't true.
Boyle, who has competed in countless talent shows, used the line to curry favor with the audience. She told a TV interviewer from U.K. breakfast show GMTV, "That was made as a joke! Never been kissed? I've never stopped."
The blogosphere has lit up at the news.
"Angel or crazy for publicity? You decide," was how fan site CafeArjun.com responded. "I'm forced to believe it was all a planned show!"
Popwrap.com branded her a "one-trick pony," while NowPublic.com was more understanding: "Do you think a peck on the cheek counts for being kissed?" the site asked.
But Boyle's admission has done nothing to dampen the ardor of her millions of new fans. Many believe Boyle, who has been nicknamed the "hairy angel" according to Britain's Daily Mail, should be declared the winner of the show right now. (She has at least one more song to perform).
"Now that Susan Boyle has been acknowledged as a singing sensation for her beautiful voice, I think it would be a good idea to declare her the winner of Britain's Got Talent," wrote C.J. Crane from Mallorca in Spain.
"I am glad Simon Cowell looks like he's going to give her a recording contract," said Raymond Rees from Wales.
British fan D.E. Atkins wrote: "The makeover squad should leave Susan Boyle alone. It is her singing and simplicity that people love. Once they start trying to change Susan's image they will spoil her."
But is it too late? Is overnight stardom already threatening to change Susan Boyle?
Since her first audition, the local council has built a fence around her home to discourage autograph-hunters. Boyle has also hired a hunky live-in bodyguard, been seen sporting an expensive leather jacket, and has agreed to go on a date with one of the judges.
Too Much Information? PUSSYCAT DOLL NICOLE SCHERZINGER HAS GAINED WEIGHT
Pussycat Doll Nicole Scherzinger has gained a ton of weight since returning home from her European tour. The reason? She doesn't like European food.
"I have gained a lot of weight over the last few weeks because when we were on tour in Europe and doing our two-hour show every night, it is inevitable you're going to lose weight.
"But now I'm back home and I get to eat in all of my favorite restaurants every night, I stuff my face. It's great. I love U.S. food."
Health expert Nicola Deeson says: "In order to preserve a healthy weight, Nicole should eat consistently. Binge eating is not healthy. A lot of American food contains a lot of fat or sugar, which is why U.S. obesity rates are the highest in the world. I would advise Nicole to be careful and eat a balanced diet."
Too Much Information? DIDDY IS SICK SICK SICK
Diddy fell ill at an Akon party he was hosting at the weekend and has been tweeting from his sick bed ever since. Shut up, already!
Even though the workaholic producer was suffering from a 103 fever, he still managed to post semi-coherent tweets.
"As I lay me down to sleep I pray GOD blesses the Locked in Movement wit the Drive+ Determination their gonna need to achieve there dreams!" he wrote.
Like I said, semi-coherent.
Later he admitted, "I thought I was gonna die! 4Real!"
There is no such thing as too much information, and www.musictoob.com is the proof!
