You're not alone at all.

She has her own section in the Mirror away from the BGT bit

Not her fault - blame the media!
Build 'em up... knock 'em down...
It's a British specialty.

Oh bloody hell, that's probably the most irritating thing I've heard all day.

, Medias to blame really she's big in America too. Do you like Flawless and Diversity hun?

Ah...The backlash. I was wondering when it was going to start. Why in this country can we not be pleased when someone is doing well? The hype is about a woman with a beautiful voice that should have been appreciated years ago. She is finally getting her chance. The media have gone mental, that is not her fault. We shouldn't start hating.

Absolutely!
She does have an amazing voice, but it is not her fault that there is so much hype. Good luck to her, but I really don't think she will win.

The media just report what happens (so people keep telling me)
The fault lies with Simon Cowell and his latest money making scheme.

They're the dance groups right? I thought they were far more talented than that George Sampson idiot and would love to see them on stage for the actual RV thing. I think it'd be far more entertaining than yet another singer.
She's only getting the attention because of her looks. If she had that voice and was young and pretty good looking like say.... Heidi from the Sugababes, people would be like yeah she's got a decent voice... next.

I suppose it makes a change from someone getting all the attention for having a good voice and being goodlooking.

Hear Hear - well said Orchid.
I don`t like Susan Boyle's voice (although I am sure many people do like it.)
I hate voices with too much vibrato (or vibrato-o-o-o-o-o-o-). Too much wobble for my taste.
In fact most of the singers in this series have had what to me have been unpleasantly pronounced vibratos. A matter of taste.

I have no problem with that if it's true but I doubt if it is Simon Cowell who's keeping her to the forefront of media attention.
I'm sure he would prefer to promote the younger, equally talented contestants if he were given the choice.

I don't think she'll win either Lassie but I hope she secures a good future from it.
I still very much like the dance troupe, Flawless. Thought they were superb.

me too, by far the best act.
i wasnt bothered by bgt at all, never have been but after susan boyle made a splash i watched the show she was on and saw flawless on that, since then i've watched the other shows but still havent seen anything better, my top 3 would be (so far, not watched last nights) flawless, that counter-tennor singer and susan boyle in 3rd.
Not too bothered about her one way or another, tbh. Except to say I hope she does well, and I hope she's emotionally able to cope if the bubble bursts.
I wish the media would stop calling her the "Hairy Angel".

Allow me to disagree
This type of entrepeneur likes to cover all eventualities. They couldn't care less who it is.
I honestly dont think she will win but good luck to her if she does

I don't think she will either but she will have made a packet by then.
When all is said and done it doesn't really matter who wins apart from the year of hype.
I mean to say.
When was the last you saw George sampson on tv or that guy Potts that won the first bgt.
The only winner is Simon Cowell and bt.

I didn't notice her on last nights show.
I haven't warmed to her. She lives just down the road from me so was on the local news quite a bit after her audition, and she just didn't seem like a very nice person.
I know that shouldn't sway my opinion on her talent, but, meh, I'm only human.

I did. I watched a show last night where they chose the final 40 for the live shows? And they showed a clip of her being interviewed, she'd deffo shaped those eyebrows! Unless I dreamt it..

Hi Darlo, my hubby who is a cool enough guy but would rarely watch as much tv as me (actually has better things to do!) but thinks that Diversity and Flawless are AMAZING. He couldn't get over the talent of those boys... by the way he can't bear the hype over Susan Boyle.
