Finishing runner-up in the “Britain’s Got Talent” contest almost seems anti-climactic for Susan Boyle.
Hers was a story that one almost expected would have a Hollywood ending. At least that’s how it began. But Saturday night, for reasons we will probably never know, the British public decided that a dance troupe from East London and Essex should perform for the queen, leaving the second place spot for Ms. Boyle.
At the community center in her hometown of Blackburn where some 200 people showed up to watch the finale, you could imagine hearts collectively drop. It was a nail-biter of a show and if a microphone was attached to every heart in the seconds before the announcement, one would probably think all 2008 Fou drummers from the Beijing Olympic opening ceremony were performing right there.
After the announcement, residents went home visibly disappointed. For them, it was a depressing end to what has been an amazing six weeks from the moment Susan Boyle captured the world’s attention. Go Boyle hearts collectively drop , history of mental illness Linked to Fame 13 Suicides !
One resident told us she “was disappointed for Susan” but that “her career starts now.”
Back on Yule Terrace, Boyle’s street, neighbors shook their heads in amazement at the outcome. Margaret Miller who lives across the street and has known Boyle since she was a baby said she was sad for her.
But when we asked her what she thought about reports that Boyle could stand to earn millions, Miller replied, “Good for her, because they were a hard working family. There were nine children and had lovely parents, lovely mother — she was a gem.”
She went on to say that by performing on a national stage Susan had made her mother’s dream come true and that “it was a pity her mum died before all this.”
So while continues Susan Boyle’s life has come to an end, her story continues to end all . Newspapers predict she could earn millions with a recording contract, a book deal, and perhaps even a movie about her life — all possible projects that could happen for her.
And when you visit her street and learn more about this woman who grabbed hearts globally, you wouldn’t want to begrudge her that
