  • July 24-30: Susa-News Summary

    We, as her adoring fans, are privileged to constantly watch and enjoy the public activities of Global Superstar, Susan Boyle. I am maintaining a daily log of the highlights of Susa-news and not editorializing toooo much. Accuracy is very important – PLEASE forgive any mistakes and send me a private message (PM) with any additions and/or corrections. I’ve tried to credit the right Fan where possible.

    1. Billboard.com posted “'America's Got Talent' Judges Simon Cowell & Mel B. Talk Going Live, Show's Promising Singers” by Michele Amabile Angermiller, an extended report with thoughts from Simon Cowell about some of the talent that will appear on America’s Got Talent.
    In the report, Simon was quoted: “If you look at One Direction or Susan Boyle, I don't think any of us when we first worked with both acts could have possibly have predicted what was going to happen next. It comes down to the act. It's got to be in them that they are going to push and fight for a successful career afterwards. And some people do it and some people don't.”

    2. Noted by Sherry from Florida: “The Christmas Candle is showing Thursday July 28, 2016 at Christian Fellowship Centre, Wilmot, Nova Scotia, Canada as part of their Christmas in July.”

    1. Susan was out and about; tweets:
    • “In the lift at work and who but Susan Boyle walks in it!! lol”
    • “HAHAHAHAHA ME AND DIRK JUST MET SUSAN BOYLE!”
    • “I know it's so old school, but i just seen Susan Boyle walking through Blackburn – so chuffed!!! Hahaha”

    1. Ncregister.com [National Catholic Register] posted “10 Ways to Stop Judging Other People” by Patti Armstrong.
    The story of Susan’s Britain’s Got Talent audition was used to make the point – “Being judgmental was thrown back into our faces that day and we loved it.”
    “The world fell in love with her. But did we learn the most important lesson from Susan Boyle; that judging others is to dehumanize them by deeming them less than ourselves? Susan surprised us but is she only worthy of our admiration because she has the voice of an angel? If Susan could not sing, would she have deserved our judgment?
    “Susan is less worthy of our admiration for her voice than for the guts it took to risk ridicule and failure when she walked on stage. The Susan Boyle story reveals our shallow values on how easily we judge …”

    2. A short note in Playbill.com about Les Misérables, “Les Misérables Takes Its Rightful Place as Pop Culture King”: “One of 2009's biggest pop culture moments happened on Britain's Got Talent where unknown Susan Boyle blew everyone away with her unexpected rendition of “I Dreamed a Dream”, which catapulted her to fame.”
