SUSAN Boyle might be a product of nominative determinism, but she becoming all things to all pundits.
Hereunder is a collection of thoughts on Boyle, and what a plain woman singing a song on a TV talent show can mean to those with space to fill:
A words first from Miss Boyle:
Susan, 48, told the Daily Mirror: “They say that television makes you look fat and it certainly did. “I looked like a garage. It was mortifying to see and a bit of a shock. I didn’t realise I could reduce people to tears and I hope it wasn’t because of that” – What’s On TV

The Good Boyle:

Boyle on the bum:
