Britain's Got Talent Boils over Susan Boyle's Makeover

People enjoy having a makeover. It improves their appearance, making them more likable by people and confident. This time, however, it's different.

I'm talking about Susan Boyle, the contestant of Britain's Got Talent that got the whole country (or world shocked) because behind her homely, slightly unattractive looks (let's be honest), hides a tremendous talent that made us all love her.

But back to the bad news. Susan Boyle's annoyingly thick eyebrows and unkempt, crazy, grayish brown hair is gone. She subjected herself into a makeover with a £35-worth chestnut hair dye, £5 eyebrow trim, and a facial at a local salon near her home.

What trouble would this little makeover bring to our poor Susan?

We are not sure, but according to Amanda Holden, one of the judges of the show, Susan needs to stay exactly as she is because that's the reason people loved her. And maybe she's right by saying that if she tries to change her looks, we might look at her differently now.

Her humble looks coupled with her awesome voice is her only edge. Just imagine Kelly Clarkson or Leona Lewis standing in front of Simon cowell with the voice of Susan Boyle, one line from a song and off they go. Right?

She sings well, but not as good as those in the music industry. She just wouldn't survive. All she could become at the least is become a one-hit wonder. Or she may not even reach that far, after having that makeover.

Well, I just wish you luck, Susan. I was one of those who laughed at you at first, but got really touched by your personality. I hope you get far.

  1. Aw. Most probably someone told her she needs the makeover if she wants to win. Just like Lil Rounds from American Idol. Well, they're British so I'm not really sure how people will take her makeover. It could either make her or break her.
