Monday just may be one of the most fabulous days of Susan Boyle’s life. The wanna-be superstar singer will be making a satellite appearance on THE Oprah Winfrey show. Ummm…hello?! If you don’t have a lifelong dream of being on Oprah, you are lying to yourself…even if it is just over satellite. Period.
Now while Susan will be able to chit chat with the Queen of television, she will have to have her
vocal chords tied up.
According to the Mirror.co.uk, Susan needs to keep her singing to herself. So NO serenading Oprah is allowed! Simon Cowell is wanting to save Boyle’s singing star power for their show’s semi finals and of course, prevent Oprah’s viewers from being in awe and giving Susan an edge to winning the competition.
And how would that happen? Well…let’s just say this show appearance is said to attract more than TEN million viewers. Ahhhh, the power of Oprah.
Less than a week ago, Susan Boyle was just a regular woman with a dream. Bushy eyebrows and a dress my granny would sport, Susan Boyle on the outside looked a hot mess, but what came out of her mouth is and will be talked about for possibly years to come.
On Saturday’s season premiere of “Britain’s Got Talent,” a U.K. show in which ” American Idol’s” Simon Cowell is one of the judges, Boyle was, from the moment she stepped onstage, heckled and made fun of.
Amanda Holden, the program’s third judge, said, “When she came onto stage the audience immediately started booing and hissing her, based purely on her appearance. She looked a little odd [and] was a bit nervous and searching for her words.”
“We were laughing at her,” Piers Morgan said. “She was someone who seemed to be completely deluded.”
Even Simon Cowell was blown away.
But, after the performance, not only were there cheers and a standing ovation, but the judges were teary-eyed.
Yet Susan is remaining modest and proud as she hit up the Early Show this morning, describing her experience as “breathtaking, unbelievable, awesome.”
If you were not one of the 14 million who have seen the video that everyone is talking about, you can peep it here. Grab the Kleenex.

Top that, Britney!
Jade Goody may only have weeks to live, however the 27-year-old and her boyfriend Jack Tweed are planning on marrying later on this week. In a generous gesture, Sir Elton John has offered Jade and Jack his $40 million mansion near Windsor Castle as a venue to marry.
After hearing that Jade’s cancer was terminal and she had only months to live, Elton offered to fly Jade and Jack to his French home. How freakin’ sweet is that?!!!
Jade’s publicist Max Clifford confirmed the invitation, “Elton John has offered one of his homes and Jonathan Ross, Simon Cowell and Dale Winton have all sent their love and thoughts to her.” So, the wedding plans begin…
Yesterday Jade and Jack left Royal Marsden Hospital to pick out Jade’s wedding gown.
“They went to Harrods and she found the most beautiful dress. Mohamed Al Fayed heard about it and said, ‘That’s my wedding present to you two’.”
We’ll keep you posted as we hear more about Jade’s wedding plans!
As we draw near to the end of 2008, I’ve had a bit of time to reflect on the year past and daydream about what 2009 will bring. In late 2008, this website was born and going into 2009 we will celebrate our year in cyberspace. Not only has the year been full of drama-filled celebrity adventures, but most importantly my passion of music has grown.
I have compiled the top ten albums, in my opinion of course, from 2008 and present them now to you. You may or may not agree with me…but hey, whatevs. Suck it up, babes.
10. Gavin DeGraw, Gavin Degraw: He writes his own songs…plays piano and guitar. And, he’s cute. BONUS! I am very selective to the albums I spend my ching on and this one is worth every penny. “In Love With A Girl” STILL rocks my playlist.
9. Natasha Bedingfield, Pocket Full of Sunshine: Natasha is not recognized enough. This girl can sing. Her voice is powerful and her lyrics happy. And I like “happy”. “Pocket Full of Sunshine” makes me think of sunshine and rainbows EVERY time I hear it.
8. Leona Lewis, Spirit: This girl was born with a talent; there’s no doubt about that. A Simon Cowell prodigy, Leona’s range is enormous. Girl also dominated the charts with “Bleeding Love” and “Better In Time”. As long as Leona can keep pumping out the ballads, her longevity will prevail.
7. Chris Brown, Exclusive: Chris Brown is this year’s golden boy, besides Michael Phelps. Chris seemed to really step up his game by not only capturing Rihanna’s heart, but musically dominating the charts with singles and collaborations. Chris Brown IS a true talent. “Kiss Kiss” pretty much rocked my world this year. Thanks, Chris.
6. Pussycat Dolls, Doll Domination: Bitches can hate all they want. Just because they dress like ho-bags doesn’t mean they are ho-bags. Ok, maybe they are. And so what. These girls can dance AND sing. With their flirty and upbeat numbers, PCD has proved they aren’t just a “fad”. I’m glad Nicole wised up and realized she ain’t shiz without the other four girls.
5. Adele, 19: Basically an unknown until the Grammy nominations came out, Adele has captured the hearts of many. Compared to the musical likes of Amy Winehouse and Joss Stone, Adele can sing me to sleep any night. In fact, before I go to bed, this album is on repeat. Quite frankly, I cannot sleep without her. Period. If you haven’t checked out “19″, you’re missing out on HIGH quality, pure soulful music. The End.
4. T.I., Paper Trail: Lil Wayne is overrated. Plain and simple. T.I. is the one with the real talent and you must admit it was his year. “Whatever You Like” is simple, yet catchy and I cannot get this song outta my head. That’s how you KNOW it’s good. This whole album is straight to the point…and really relates to life. If I had enough money to buy EVERYONE this album I would.
3. Taylor Swift, Fearless: Oh my dear, Taylor Swift. Now you may just be thinking this is a pity placing due to Miss Taylor getting shafted by the Grammy committee. Well peeps, you are wrong. Taylor Swift should have gotten 20349494 nominations, but let me tell you…listen to this album and in your heart you can pretend she did get 20349494 Grammy wins…because she deserves them. I’m usually not a country fan, but lyrically and musically Taylor has captured my heart. Make sure you have a Kleenex box handy upon listening.
2. Mariah Carey, E=MC2: Mariah, my beotch. Nope, she’s not number one and I almost feel guilty for punishing my girl like this. Let’s face it. This album was in my CD player in my car, in my house, in my bathroom and in my computer 24/7 ever since the album debuted in April. Mariah writes ALL her own lyrics and her voice is like no other. This album is fun, yet MC still shows her sensitive side with those ballads that made her who she is today.
So, here we are. Down to number one. So, who could possibly beat out MY GIRL MC?
But first….who were the worst of 2008? It was a big fat tie between Jessica Simpson’s Do You Know and Ashlee Simpson’s Bittersweet World. Good job Papa Joe!
