SuBo

England had (or has, as time will tell) been obsessed with Susan Boyle for weeks. Her performance of I Dreamed a Dream on Britain's Got Talent was amazing apparently. I only saw a few seconds on the news, and yes, she was good. She could sing. But hello, so can many people. The media attention for the Scottish woman was unheard of. Just crazy. The final of BGT on Saturday was watched by over 18 million brits. And SuBo came second, after a dance act from East London and Essex. SuBo ended up in The Priory, a mental hospital in North London. And all this so confirmed why I don't watch that type of tele. The hypes are ridiculous, the success stories few and far between (Leona Lewis an exception), and my Saturday nights way too precious.
