After 1st Rant, Boyle Lights Into Cops

Share

(Newser) – Foul-mouthed songbird Susan Boyle not only had a few choice words about a judge on Britain's Got Talent, she also blew up at fans yesterday and lit into a British bobby who subsequently tried to calm her down, reports the Sun. London cops intervened when Boyle screamed at comments by passers-by. When a cop asked: "Is there a problem?" she responded: "Of course there's a fucking problem!" An officer spoke to the tearful singer until she regained her composure.

I can't imagine the pressure the is under and most of it self imposed on her attempt to make her promise to her Mom come true. I do hope she learns to maintain under the this pressure and in the end she comes out as the same Susan who entered the contest. Reply

There had to be some reason our dear Susan took this long to be noticed for her abilities... and now that reason is beginning to shine through. There's more to being an entertainer than the raw gift; many skills including self-control must be developed for a well rounded and valuable player to 'have arrived'. Reply
