America’s Got Talent has discovered the next Susan Boyle!! (Or should I say; this week’s “next Susan Boyle” until they discover another one the week after.) Check out this little girl named Jackie Evancho who can belt out a sonata better than some seasoned professionals! Watching and hearing her sing is so unreal that it actually seems at times as if she’s lip synching to a backing track! But apparently, she’s the real deal! Check her out…
WOW… I can’t believe I almost missed this one! This is a few days old but I wanted to post it anyway just in case some of you haven’t seen already. So Gabourey Sidibe, the Oscar nominated actress who starred in Precious, has a mom named Alice Tan Ridley who has been singing in the New York subway stations for the last 20 years. After her daughter found fame in Hollywood, the 58 year old vocalist decided to finally follow her own dreams and took her God given vocal talent to the America’s Got Talent stage. Turns out, Precious’ mom not only can sing… But she can SANG!!! Check out Alice’s show stopping rendition of Etta James’ “At Last“. AMAZING performance that’ll have you asking, “Susan Boyle who???!!!”
The Taiwanese Susan Boyle who became a youtube celebrity after belting out an impressive rendition of Whitney Houston’s “I Will Always Love You” a few weeks ago has a new viral video. Apparently this little kid can dance as well as sing! Check out the little chubster showing off his moves for a Taiwanese news segment.
In case you haven’t seen the new viral video this week… Check out this kid that people are calling the Chinese Susan Boyle. Damn this boy has some pipes!!! He belted out a ridiculous version of Whitney Houston’s “I Will Always Love You“… Better than Whitney herself could even sing it anymore!
If you’re planning on having a big celebrity party anytime soon, you might not want to invite both Adam Lambert & Susan Boyle. Especially after the recent comments that Adam made about Susan’s album;
“I’m happy for her success [Susan Boyle], but that album is terrible. “Wild Horses” is the one that just made me laugh the hardest. I just died when I heard it, I was crying with laughter. It was the most horrendous, sacrilegious treatment of that song!”
Is it just me or does anyone else that as a new artist, Adam should keep these kind of thoughts inside his head for while… Especially considering Susan has sold circles around him and his album. Just makes him sound like a bitter-Betty!
Music mogul, Simon Cowell, is currently in the early stages of putting together an all-star charity single to raise money for the victims of the Haiti earthquake. Beyonce, Robbie Williams, Lady Gaga, Wyclef Jean, Susan Boyle, Elton John, Paul McCartney and Leona Lewis are all rumored to be on board for the project which could see a rushed release within 7 to 10 days. (Though I really doubt this will be an accurate roster of artists in the end.) From what I understand, Simon has chosen the REM song “Everybody Hurts” as the charity single that the all-stars will cover. Kudo’s to Simon for using his gift of music to help the people of Haiti.
Susan Boyle may be at the top of her game career-wise right now but the “Wild Horses” singer still has some screws loose when it comes to coping with her new found celebrity status. Most recently, SuBo stunned onlookers at the first-class lounge while she was waiting for a British Airways flight to Chicago to film her Oprah debut. She apparently started dancing and singing songs into the head of a mop as fellow travelers looked on.
“It was chaos. Susan was very restless and agitated from the minute she walked in and immediately started making a scene. She was singing and dancing around, shouting obscenities at full volume,” says one first-hand witness.
She apparently then started to polish the other passengers’ shoes with the same mop that she had used as a microphone which prompted some perturbed individuals to make complaints to the staff. Airport employees were called in to try to calm Susan down after she started yelling obscenities… She eventually fled the lounge yelling out; “I’ve escaped, I’ve escaped!”
A (very diplomatic) British Airways spokespersonl kinda confirmed the incident by stating; “A customer in the BA lounge on Tuesday was asked to temper their behaviour as it was becoming disruptive.”
Oh how I wish I could have been in that lounge egging her on. Me and Susan would have totally had a mop-head microphone duet moment!!
Doesn’t Susan Boyle’s face look a lot less like a dried up prune with a mustache these days? That’s because the chart topping singer has apparently discovered the magical wonders of Botox and has a Hollywood glam-squad to transform her into this radiant woman in a Grimace costume pictured above!
“I have a new hairdresser and I have discovered Botox, as well as getting my teeth whitened. I’ve lost weight for my own self esteem. It’s all been very important. I was never able to buy myself shoes or nice dresses or go to the hairdresser. I have the closet of a star. Before I had to save and recycle clothes – for example, the outfit I wore on Britain’s Got Talent I had bought for my brother’s wedding.”
Awww… How endearing, actually! Good for her and I wish her much more success and Botox!
After a lengthy and highly impressive run on the top of Billboard’s 200 chart, Susan Boyle will finally been knocked off of her chart topping thrown by new-comer Ke$ha’s debut album, Animal. The “TiK ToK” party girl has actually surpassed projected first weeks sales and is expected to take over the #1 position on Jan 13th. according to Billboard. A feat that current “it” girl Lady Gaga didn’t even accomplish with her Fame Monster album. Congrats Ke$ha!
Susan Boyle may be topping the international charts with her debut album but according to Amazon UK, people may be buying the album to do something OTHER than listen to it. Check out this hilarious screen capture brought to you by Failblog.org.
