Susan Detractors/Susan Fans

I get that not everyone in the world is going to love Susan Boyle like we do-nor do they have to.
We're not twisting their arms.
What I DON'T get is why these people go around to various sites from You Tube to Newsprint making terrible comments about her.They're nasty and some are downright viscous.Some comments/stories are lies and personal attacks.Meant to do harm.
I get that some folks might not like Susan's personality.Maybe they don't like her singing,her style or even her musical genre.
Bottom Line:Then don't watch her performances,plan on buying her cd's or going to her concerts.NOBODY is making you.We're not forcing you to like her and we're not making you buy her cd's or getting a ticket for a concert.You don't have to view her You Tube videos and above all you don't have to come to her fan sites.

There has to be something better in life to do than tear one person down for no apparent reason other than some people love her and appreciate her singing.
I've seen alot of hype over far less talented people. Not the kind of hype i'd be proud of either.I won't mention any names but you can fill in the dotted line with the name of a number of celebrities.
Now that's the side of the story about Susan's detractors.Let's talk about the rest of us-her world wide fan base.Country doesn't matter.She crosses those lines.There's nothing political about Susan.
She appeals to people of all countries and cultures.Why?
First and foremost;her voice.
People know beauty when they hear it.
I've not been this interested in someone since i was a teen and the Beatles hit our shores big time.
I got over that teenage idolizing a LOOOONG time ago.
Susan is NOT a celebrity. Odd as that sounds.
She's not some superwoman,diva,icon.
She put everything else in her life first before she walked on that stage at BGT.
She didn't seek fame. .She's not perfect or saintly though.
We know that.
She's HUMAN and SHE knows it.
She epitomizes the dignity owed to every human being and we,her fans,are giving that to her for every single person out here.She's one of us with a God given talent we recognize as a God given talent.
Let's be honest.The world doesn't get that.
On the other hand,
Susan Boyle is pretty simple stuff.
She lives in a little village with her cat,she takes care of her folks,she goes to church and she loves to sing.
And one day she walks onto an audition stage and takes the chance of a lifetime.
That's it.
Nothing more,nothing less.She had something to offer too and that she knew.
What she did that day she sang I Dreamed A Dream so beautifully is inspiring to people everywhere. (She topped herself in the final).
The rags made too much of things like;is she going to get a makeover,will people still like her then,what dress,hair style ...eegads it went on and on.
They missed the point.
Susan Boyle is here to stay and she will be successful even beyond our wildest dreams.I hope so.Then we can tell her detractors to take a leap without saying a single word.
(although i did tell one of these nasty people to "get a life".
I swear-has to be something missing there).

As we say;
GO SUSAN GO
THAT simple.
God Bless,

Re: Susan Detractors/Susan Fans

Thank you for your post, Boxerpaws. I agree, having seen what the press did to a famous public figure I knew and to his family, who are my friends. No one should be in the business of destroying people.

Susan's fans, too, need to consider the effect of their words and pressing her too much for photos, autographs, news, and even a glimpse. I'm concerned when people call her an angel. No one can live up to that. After all, God made us a little lower than the angels, and we all have a prickly side as well as a side made in the image of God.

As a fan, I'm praying for her happiness as well as her success and that attaining her dream of being a professional singer doesn't turn into a nightmare for her. She has an amazing talent, and I hope she will find great joy in sharing it with the world.

Re: Susan Detractors/Susan Fans

We have to watch out for sensationalism in the rags. When it was written about Susan lifting her dress, the way it was brought out was so over dramatized. Thinking she lifted her dress to see everything. Here it was lifted a little above the knee and a little leg action. BIG DEAL.... She was dealing with stress right there and threw in some humor. The rags picked up on it and ran with sorted nonsense. The one that was KING OF MEAN was Chef Gordon Ramsay. I'd never watch another one of his shows after his rude and crude remarks, plus the Miss Piggy pictures along with flipped remarks about Susan. One article was stated about this was, "Australia Lost It's Funny Bone." Gordon is on the hot seat anyway with his, non-stop cussing.

Remember when you were young? (maybe you were a good kid). Even I used to say mean things. But I never meant people to get hurt. Now I'm mellow & try to understand people's feeling.

If you are a celebrity figure, you must expect that there are a lot of people who will say bad things about you. I bet Madonna or Bred Pitt has more people hating them then Susan Boyle. That's how it is. That's a show biz. You give up your personal space. A lot of people will love you, but some people will hate you.

We cannot have world full of mellow folks - unless "weed" becomes a universal recreation. :)

What I'm saying is... Do not expect bunch of youngsters to only say wonderful things about Susan Boyle. They will say whatever they think is funny, different, and controversial.

It's all good.

Re: Susan Detractors/Susan Fans

Yes, right, 'Boxerpaws'. - Couldn't agree more!

I don't see these 'hate' posts as 'harmless' or 'funny'.

What gets me is - If these people do not like Susan Boyle, then why are they wasting their time LOOKING for references to Susan and then making obnoxious comments? Definitely something lacking there!

These posts come from people who are twisted and enjoy 'winding people up'!
