More Susan the Songbird Musings

I am still delighted by Susan Boyle and am eagerly anticipating following her via You Tube. Naturally, I clicked on the People.com's teaser about her new look ... because any Susan junkie worth her weight knows that Susan has said she really doesn't want to change her look at all. She, of course, represents all of us with talent who somehow or another have chores that keep us from our blazing singing career. (Side note: Susan cared for her elderly parents. Not that that's necessarily a "chore", it happens to be quite time consuming).

What took me most by surprise is that the British Daily Mail was shocked to see Susan wearing pumps. Hello, boys!!! She was wearing pumps when she auditioned. While they were beige (a totally bland shoe color, Poodle), they were heels. WAKE UP! I noticed. Score her some points for matching her dress (bland, bland beige, but matched). BUT I predict this Song Diva will shortly diva-up her wardrobe. She's a girl with spunk and guts, after all!

To echo Diva Janet's comment to the earlier post, I do hope that Susan comes to realize that plucking eyebrows is just maintenance, not so much a "change".

Dreaming the Dream

If you haven't seen Susan Boyle's stunning weekend performance on Britain's Got Talent by now, stop everything and take a look:

This frizzy haired middle aged frumpy Scott is the most courageous person I have ever heard of. She had absolutely no reason to take this leap and audition in Glasgow for the show ... except she simply had nothing to lose. And look what she has gained!! Respect ... from all over the world.

Susan, you are a Diva!! I knew from the moment I saw your shoes as you walked on stage that you were a spunky girl! Your smile is radiant. I look forward to watching your transformation into the Gorgeous Creature you are destined to be. You are the celebrity that I want to watch!!! Eagerly tuning in ...
XOXO

I have a theory

What if we're not really in an economic crisis? What if everyone's on Facebook and not getting their work done? Like, all across the globe. I think it's plausible. Thoughts?
