And now she in re-hab, and there been about 100 complaints about ITV failing to dell with her learning disabitay correctly.

She went off in one, and believe the company had stolen her cat!! thus there had to phone her house so she could speak with her cat!

this may better for her not to win,

Where did the cat info come from?  Surely that's been distorted?  I talk to my cat.

I read that after introducing tv crew to her invisible friend she borrowed a mobile phone to ring home and leave a message on the answer machine for her cat called Pebbles.

She should have never been put through to the finals.  I remember on X Factor Simon voicing concerns over Rowettas mental state and saying she would not cope with the pressure of fame so why didn't he do the same for SuBo. I think all SC sees is pound signs and that is why Stavros could not win because there would be no Cd's for SC to cash in on.

Susan Boyle wasn't actually a very good singer.  She was a bit better than OK.  It's just that her appearance is so far removed from the media's ideal, that when she was actually not bad - everyone thought, 'Wow!  Give her big breasts and a pretty face and her voice becomes that of a decent pub singer.  For what it's worth and you Earthlings can take it or leave it - I thought Diversity were by far the best act on the night.

There's always one who will say they predicted the winner. Diversity weren't better than the sax player or Stavros.

I would have voted for Cliff Richard being nailed to a cross, but it never happened!

I think she's a wonderful singer. She just hasn't had the benefit of voice training so she goes a bit wobbly when she is nervous. Her voice has an amazing range and power but I think she limits herself to the big show tunes a bit too much.

I wish people would stop going on about her looks. She's far from ugly, it's just that, again, she's not been schooled in grooming and how to wear clothes that are more flattering.

I don't think she's ugly. She just looks like an average human.  Believe me, when you've seen the Thargblatter on Betrovium B you will know what ugly is.

I predicted the top three in the right order.  Diversity are something really special.  Yes the sax player is excellent but I know many sax players who are just as good (look in the orchestra pit of any West End show) and don't forget a large proportion of what you heard was on the backing track.

Julian Smith (the sax player) annoyed me a bit, frankly. His 'ever so 'umble guvnor' routine got very dull very quickly. And why did Piers Morgan insist on constantly saying how 'cool' he was? Why, because he wore a beanie hat?

I thought he looked terribly scruffy. I like buskers - because I love outdoor music played outdoors. However, I don't want to switch on the Tv and see one. It's all wrong somehow.
