What's your opinion of Susan Boyle?

[officialleafan]

We've heard the Judges, and half of Britain and we've also heard what America think, but what is your opinion? Do you love or hate Susan?

[Harry!]

I like her, She has been my firm fave from day one. Susan to win!

[Annie]

HATE! like you have no idea.

[Wildcat!]

She is a decent singer, getting patronized by a whole nation, because she is not exactly very attractive.

[John.]

She's a fine singer, not my type of music though, and umm... that's it.

She's obviously going to win!

[Tom4784]

At the end of the day she has a great voice and can give brilliant performances. I like her, I wouldn't listen to her album but I like her. The media onslaught has affected many people's thoughts on her I think.

[monkeyking87]

Overhyped average singing average looking woman

Was VERY off tune on Sunday but nothing was said because shes a "superstar"

In general I think she is bog standard average and we wouldnt have all this hype had the Americans not latched onto her. It almost seems the judges are too afraid to give criticism where it is due.

[Brad*]

I don't like her AT ALL. Yes, Susan is talented but she is incredibly over-hyped, mainly because she is extremely ugly. If she wins the competition then I will be very annoyed and disappointed with the Great British public for voting for a big-headed bitch.:mad:

[Fom]

I like susan, she is very talented. It is not her fault for all the hype and I don't think its fair for people to hate her because she has done nothing wrong, hate the hype not her. I hate the way she is favoured to win, I never like a favourite. But on the other hand, well done to Susan, she deserves it.

[Spike]

She is talented but very overrated and the public seem to have got carried away with the whole thing
I don't mind the woman and she probably does deserve to win the show

Spot on. Couldn't have put it better myself. :thumbs:

[SiaSiaSia]

In a way; hate
but in a way I don't really think it's her fault.

[Princess]

Completely overrated. The whole shock factor of her being able to sing like that when she was built up to be rubbish is what all the hype is about.

[seank_manu]

i HATE Her

[MR.K!]

Love her. Great talent, very deserving of a break in her life, great fun attitude, great voice. Whats not to love ?

[Lewis.]

Very Talented, a bit overhyped, but so adorable :lovedup:

[Nicky.]

Her audition was fab, but tbh she's not a very likeable person.. infact, she's highly irritating!

Her performance on Sunday was a total let down.. the first note was atrocious and she wasn't breathing correctly or anything.. imo, she doesn't deserve to win!

[Jackie]

I like her singing but i do cringe when she makes silly comments or do that silly wiggle.

[Annie]

When she sang in the semi final on monday, her first notes were off key and completely awful. she sounded RUBBISH. and she only got in cos of all her fame. if she hadnt been all over the papers, she wouldnt have got through. i actually hate her. people think she is so amazing and she actually isnt, that woman from the flower arranging thing was a much better singer but she didnt get all this attention.

[GiRTh]

She was very pitchy early on in her performance on Monday. She got it together towards the end but the start was not good at all, yet none of the judges picked up on it. Or have the judges seen she's favourite and decided it would be in their best interests to praise the likely winner.

[Deirdre]

I love her. She's a nice person, amazing singer and funny. She deserves all the atttention she gets.

[Hugo]

Overrated.

Really overrated but I still think she is a good singer. But what some people fail to recognise with why people like Susan is that it isn't her voice, but its just her.

[Indierock&roll]

way way overrated
good, but not that good, way better acts than her

[CiaraD]

She is a good singer but god she annoys me.

[HeatherTWx]

I don't really like her. Yeah, she's good at singing and stuff but its just the fact that she is overated and people think the competitions over now. But it isnt anyone could win it.

[Rob]

i hate her

[Twilight]

Overrated and not as amazing as people make out..

[thisisme2008]

when i was in america in april she was all over the news there! it was very funny to watch especially as i'd missed most of BGT...

[thisisme2008]

They were talking about her on all the talk shows too like the View, Today, Chelsea Lately, Oprah...

[Shaun]

I'm pleased for her, but I don't understand the hype. She's not outstanding, she's very good.

I just hate how Simon Cowell always manages to spin webs around the media, and as a result the mind-numbed general population.

I don't really think Simon actually did anything this time, it just managed to get out of control itself with the snowball effect. The only thing from his side was the way they edited it. Then its usually pretty standard practice for the 'star' in the auditions to have a feature on ITV Lunchtime News every Monday ... and Susan got that. But then the rest of the media picked up on it, and before we knew it she was allover in America. If ITV never ran the story it, it might not have turned out the way it did ...

[mado]

i just think its unfair


she has won before the final


i think she has a lovely voice but what about the other contestants

[markowen]

i dont like her she doesnt need to win it ...
she is already big in america :P

[SammyAyee]

overrated.

[GiRTh]

She's a dowdy looking woman who surprised everyone at the audition with a good but not great rendition of I dreamed a dream. Since then all hell has broken loose and we seem to have created a bit of a monster. On DS some are comparing her to Jade Goody calling her a foul mouthed attention seeker. LMAO:laugh:

[andybigbro]

i am bored of her, she is way over-rated
