Susan Boyle has haters


Susan Boyle has been loved by everybody since she burst on the scene over a month ago and stole the hearts of not only the Britain's Got Talent judges, but YouTube viewers across the globe with her performance of I Dreamed a Dream. She kept the train rolling this past weekend when she advanced to the finals of the show after performing Andrew Lloyd Webber's Memories. But while everyone praised her first performance, she's gotten some skeptics and haters after her latest one. Check out what different people thought of her Memories performance.

Washington Post: "It was a wobbly performance, less assured than her storming debut appearance, but Britain's Got Talent darling Susan Boyle returned to the show for Sunday's semi-final, winning a public vote to go through to next weekend's big final."

Wall Street Journal: "In her much-hyped encore, however, Ms. Boyle appeared to be nervous, and began her rendition of Memories from the musical Cats singing slightly out of tune and clutching her abdomen."

New York Post: "Don't send me letterbombs or anything, but how awful was Susan Boyle's Britain's Got Talent semi-final performance of Memories this weekend? Between the mental images of Susan singing this song to her cats and the pleas to "touch me," it all just came off a little desperate and a lot pitchy,"

Lily Allen: "Susan Boyle is so overrated. Yes, she can sing, but it's not about talent with her is it? She seems like a lovely lady but if it's about talent, that Shaheen kid should win."

Why can't people let her just enjoy the ride she's on? People always need to find a way to drag other people down. Guess what -- most of you who wrote about Susan sucking work at newspapers. Know why? You're too ugly for TV and sound too douchebaggy for radio, so shut the hell up.
