Susan Boyle – glamorous Hollywood make-over

It was Susan Boyle’s eccentric appearance and unique sense of fashion that helped make her a star that she is today.

As Susan shot to fame,  Britain’s Got Talent judge Amanda Holden vowed she would not have a ‘Hollywood makeover’, stating it would spoil her lovable appeal.

Now it seems Susan Boyle has had plans of her own if these photos from the U.S. fashion magazine Harper’s Bazaar are anything to go by.

Susan wears a variety of designer outfits for the shoot, which was her first since the ITV talent show.

Alan Carr wants to work with Susan Boyle

Alan Carr

Alan Carr has revealed that he would like to team up with Susan Boyle for a new TV show.

Alan named Susan as the perfect replacement for his former screen partner Justin Lee Collins when interviewed for Star magazine.

Carr explained: “I always get on with women more than men, so maybe me and Amanda Holden or me and SuBo. Now that Richard & Judy are gone it could be Alan & Su.”

He added that Susan is also welcome to appear on his Channel 4 show ‘Chatty Man‘ anytime as a guest.

He also commented: “I enjoyed Britain’s Got Talent, but it got a bit scary when Susan hitched up her skirt. She’d have to come on with someone – I don’t mean a carer – but maybe the dancing granddad. We’d clump them together and get some sense out of them.”

Susan is yet to coment

Susan Boyle to buy her Blackburn council house

Britain’s Got Talent star Susan Boyle is going to buy her council house in Blackburn.

Susan has lived in the semi-detached property since she was a baby,  but was never able to afford a mortgage until now.

Susan has been recording her debut album in London recently after being snapped up by Simon Cowell‘s SyCo record label and is currently staying in an upmarket flat in the capital.

Susan’s  older brother Gerry told the Daily Record: “Susan walked into the local council office and told them that although she was living in London, she didn’t want them to rent her house to anyone else.

“I think people were a bit shocked to see her but they told her they had no plans to let it go to anyone else – and now she wants to buy it. She will never forget her roots.”

Discussing the other big changes in his sister’s life, he added: “She has been given a mobile phone for the first time but can only make calls. She hasn’t got her head round texting yet.”

Simon Cowell recently promised that Boyle will “surprise a lot of people” with her debut disc.

Amanda Holden – I predicted Boyle’s breakdown

Amanda Holden has claimed that she predicted Susan Boyle’s would have a breakdown days before it occurred even though she earlier stated ‘Susan Boyle has no underlying mental issues’

Susan Boyle was checked into The Priory rehab clinic after coming second to Diversity in the show’s final.  The shows producers later confirmed that she was “exhausted and emotionally drained”.

Reflecting on the whole event , Holden told the Daily Star: “I was worried Susan wouldn’t be able to handle it. Then, a week later she checked into The Priory. I was like Mystic Mandy.”

Susan Boyle eventually left the after five days and was instantly snapped up by Simon Cowell‘s record label. She is now currently working on her debut album.

Simon Cowell recently stated  that Susan’s breakdown came because she “didn’t know how to cope with losing”.

Susan’s brother  Gerry has agreed with the music mogul’s view, commenting: “Susan doesn’t take rejection very well. That’s not to say she doesn’t bounce back, she does. It’s a lack of confidence and a case of getting overworked up. With Britain’s Got Talent, it all just became too much.”

Susan is currently busy recording her debut album. However, Susan’s older brother Gerry has now revealed that she  is still plagued by her insecurities and is fearful about returning to her old life.

Speaking to the Sunday Mirror, he explained: “Susan absolutely loves the life she is leading now. But it has left her fearful of going back to how things were, living on her own waiting for her singing dream to come true. She has asked me many times: ‘Gerry, what happens if this all stops?’”

Commenting on the incident, Gerry added: “Susan doesn’t take rejection very well. That’s not to say she doesn’t bounce back, she does. It’s a lack of confidence and a case of getting overworked up. With Britain’s Got Talent it all just became too much.”

Susan recently confirmed that she is keen to stay in the public eye following her recent success.
