Britian’s Got Talent show discovers talent in a middle aged woman  has thrown scottish lady singer Susan Boyle into the spot lightlast week, in the auditions, is now looking like the biggest overnight success story ever! Boyle (sorry I got her name wrong yesterday its Susan Boyle not Susan Doyle ), has now reportedly got an offer to appear on Oprah’s show In fact it appears from MSN’s photo that the transformation process has already started with a bit of a haircut and eyebrow shape - which I personally think is a shame.  Susan Doyle needs to remember that she doesn’t have to confirm to society’s stereotypes to be succesful - as she has just so ably proved by the 15million and counting you tube hits since last weekend.

I hope Susan Boyle can handle the sudden descent of 1/2 the world’s media to her doorstep, of her small flat in Blackburn, Lothian, Scotland. She needs needs a competent and ethical agent fast to manage all this for her.  It sounds like the devout Roman Catholic who is currently unemployed living in a Council flat in one of Scotland’s poorest areas may well be the good news story of the year.

I wonder if she will go on to win Britian’s Got Talent Show - the point is nearly moot now as no doubt Simon Cowell will be handing her a recording contract soon - hopefully he’ll keep an eye on her business affairs as well.

Last year’s winner Paul Potts had his first CD out not long after the broadcast of his audition piece of Nessum Dorma started off his singing career and lost him to the world of phone sales. Hopefully Susan Boyle will be able to achieve something similar
