I saw this and I have to say she has a beautiful voice. But I am also very upset with the media calling her ugly duckling, plain Jane, spinster, etc. Her looks have nothing to do with her talent. Her personal life has nothing to do with her talent. Is it really that shocking that someone who looks like Susan can sing? Is it really that shocking that someone who has never married can sing so well? I'd like to ask all the media those questions.

It's actually quite embarrassing to me how they are treating this whole story. Everyone seems shocked and I can't figure out why? It really just shows how superficial the world is to those who are not what is considered "pretty."

I agree... I think this is a bit staged....maybe she didn't know what was coming, but I think the judges knew. The audience did not however, IMO.

It does say, that certain types of people are "not allowed"....
not allowed to be smart, not allowed to be brilliant and talented.

The media panders to the lowest common denominator as a rule. But, she appears to be a good sport about it all for now.
What her future holds? That is something else.

But I bet she is stunning in church!

It certainly brought tears to my eyes! I wish her the best!
(and her kitties too)

I saw this video on a new site. Amazing!

There was something about her already being contacted by a company owned by Simon Cowell.

But that is strange because their talent show has only because it has just started and she is a contestant?

I agree. You don't have to look like a supermodel in order to have talent. Personally, I don't think she looked that bad. I mean, yes, she could use some eyebrow wax but the media is making way too much out of the way she looks. I hope it works in her favor and she gets lots of performance offers.

I saw this on TV yesterday too. She has the most beautiful voice, but I was also horrified at what the commentators were saying about her.....like never even been kissed.

Australia's Got Talent had their grand final last night and there was a 15 year old lad who's voice just blew me away! We're being made to wait a week for the voting results, but I sure hope he wins.

I was amazed that she should up to all that were there and sang to them. If I would have been her I would have ran from the stage crying!! When she was done and started to walk off stage she felt complete in singing and really forgot she was being judged. She stood up to all of them...very brave, very amazing....

I received this link in five e-mails from friends today who live in different states. This woman is amazing and everyone is talking about her.

WOW; What talent!

i saw her on the web a day or two ago, omg what a beautiful voice, one of the best voices I have heard in a long time, I do not watch this show with this simon person, but i did enjoy watching simon sit back and his jaw dropped, she did a real good job, hope what ever the show is she wins it all, was really wonderful

Miss Boyle was interviewed on GMA today....

The video is on Yahoo news (no address unfortunately).

She was cute, I thought. The Scottish accent was a bit hard to
follow, but gave her a bit of an folksy air.

She did mention being bullied in school. And that upset me..
I just hate school and adult bullies!
