I think that clip of Susan Boyle takes us down to all the emotions and “all” demographics, except for rap singers or those who listen to rap, everyone else who loves music is enchanted. She is the ultimate voice according to what “we” feel and live because of her life and history. And that is why she has become addicting, viral, accepted, believed and wanted in our lifes. She is now the respected queen of vocal musical presence in the world. She is protected by fans from the media, Simon Cowell or any other because if the fans will disobey the judge, say so of her situation. She is respectful of the star she is. And in saying that; yes getting all dressed up and makeup and having her hair done is probable average or equal to most women in America.

It seems how quickly we forget being cynical. You show how once again the media influences people. Now you have people voting on new hair styles for Susan, I hope Billy Bush shows his daughters the epsiode of last nites show in which you are making fun of her, when he just said how proud he was to show them her video and how WE SHOULD ALL NOT MAKE FUN OF PEOPLE!!!

And you said you wouldn’t change, Susan Boyle! Britain’s Got Talent star shows off her new look

Last updated at 4:45 PM on 22nd April 2009

Susan Boyle insisted she wouldn’t change after she shot to worldwide stardom following her appearance on Britain’s Got Talent.
But as she stepped out yesterday it appeared she had been on a shopping trip.
The Scottish singer had swapped her matronly look for a new, patterned dress and leather-look jacket, along with a pair of high heels.

Scroll down to listen to Susan’s first CD recording Had a makeover Susan? The singer appeared to have been on a shopping trip after she was pictured in a patterned dress and PVC jacket
New look: Susan, yesterday, and during her audition for Britain’s Got Talent

But despite her new clothes she was still the same-old Susan who has won fans with her down-to-earth persona - giving photographers an enthusiastic thumbs up.

A video of Susan’s audition for Britain’s Got Talent looks set to become the most viewed YouTube clip ever.

Less than two weeks after it was uploaded to the site Susan’s audition has been watched more than 100million times - making it set to smash the previous record

I think it was very rude making fun of her hair by showing different styles.
Let’s give the woman credit for beining so brave to sing in front of millions.
This is the time to build a person up not try to tear her down for entertainment.

I am totally blown away and humbly smitten with the grace and beauty this woman emanates. Her voice is the voice of an angel and her charm beyond earths realm. The world has been given her, as a gift, let’s cherish the time we have with her. I love you Susan, can’t wait to buy your first cd. Love from,

Susan appeals to folks on so many level that it will be impossible for anyone else to compete. She was a star three second after opening her mouth and she knew she was going to be too. None of the others will teach us an object lesson and make us feel hopeful. She was shrewd picking that song as well. If she sung Cry Me A River we would not be commenting on her most likely. She is touched our hearts, rebuked us and made us hopeful and encouraged us. She was despised and rejected of men and yet blessed us so much. Like I said she touched us on many level and we will not forget.

Susan, Don’t you change anything about yourself! You are magnificent JUST AS YOU ARE! Do you realize that people around the world have heard you sing and know who you are? You must be God’s gift to all of us! May God keep blessing you and please let us hear more of you. And please be careful about those people who will try to take advantage of you!

Susan when you walked out on stage, the people made fun of you. The even made fun. Just before you started to sing, you had a grin that I knew that you knew from the start that you were going to rock them. May the LORD bless you. Allow GOD to shine May your wishes come. I am from Phoenix, Arizona, United State I have broken out in tears every time I’ve played the video. WIN WIN WIN

There is something wonderfully magical
about the theater. When a star like
Susan Boyle walks out onto a totally empty stage and within seconds carries the spirits of millions upon millions of people into the heavens, we know we are in the presence of a true star. Like most of us now, I have watched her performance over and over again. Within
seconds she had the audience on their
feet and cheering…and when she came
to the word “shame” in the lyrics, that,
that exact second, is when she carried us all into the Heavens and she became a star in all our hearts! And when she walked off the stage and threw us all that kiss she capture our hearts for all time! As Amanda said, “it was an absolute privilege to hear her sing.” She has captured, and brought real joy and happiness to, the entire world! We have had the privilege of watching real talent lifting us up in ways that can
only be described as wonderful beyond
belief. The world’s heart is yours Susan…may God Bless you and guide you
as your stardom continues to grow! And,
by the way, there is no doubt that you
will one day get your wish to sing for
the Queen…I’m sure the Queen is already looking forward to that day with
great anticipation…we all are. May
all your dreams come true.

Susan is a symbol of inspiration, ambition,integrity,courage,hopes and dreams. When susan sang, she spoke to the world. At any age, and from all walks of life,everyone has something to give and share. I think we can all learn a valuable lesson from Susan. Never underestimate the underdog!
Every time I watch the video I cry. It is so beautiful. I hope Susan’s dream comes true and she wins!

I’m awestruck by Susan, her voice is angelic. But, it’s so much more than that. She’s so unassuming and humble, yet, confident and comfortable in her own skin. So giving, even when she’s been vilified all her life by unscrupulous, untalented and really ugly people. She has maintained such a positive attitude, even, with those who have looked at her in disdain. She is undaunted. She has spent her life taking care of others, and being what we as christians profess to be, Christlike. Wow, what a breath of fresh air in this world filled with the stench of selfishness and vanity. She is so childlike, so pure. Wish we all had the wisdom, peace, love and contentment, this so called “learning disabled” woman has. I hear nothing but the most intelligent answers in all her interviews. I guess we could all use a little oxygen deprivation. I can’t get enough of her. She has renewed in me a sense of self that I had allowed others to obscure with their vain pursuits and accomplishments. Go Suusan. I hope you have your dream come true and we can all listen to that exceptionally angelic voice and character in an album really soon. Thanks for loving us even when we didn’t love you.

Susan’s inner beauty shines
her voice has been sent from heaven
to ease the pain of a troubled world
I have listened to the vidio over
and over and each time tears flow
becauce her conpassion and love of family she set aside her dreams
at midlife may all of her dreams come true
