Oh dear, I think this has just bit Cowell on the arse. A poor 10 year old crumbling to pieces on live telly??!! WTF
That was SO staged - from Ant & Dec making a big thing of 'Holly Steele' - she's got nerves of steel'
before she started, to her quiver half way through Eidleweiss (didn't Christopher Plummer do the same thing when he sang it just before the Von Trapps skedaddled from THEIR talent contest or whatever it was??? See what they did there??) - cue 'concerned' mother (who seemed to make a snap decision that yes, it would be good for her emotionally destroyed daughted to sing again, and of course the 'poor brave little mite' did brilliantly the second time (with just a hint of a tremor here and there, just in case we thought she'd made too much of a recovery!)
I can't stand stage school kids - I much preferred the cheeky little dancer lad who looked like he'd robbed a couple of cars on the way to the studio.
I predict a riot - Holly and Susan Boyle (I reckon they have about the same mental age) in a bitch fight just before tonights final.
If Susan doesn't win (and let's face it, would she have got as far as she has if she looked normal? Don't think so) she can always join the cast of Father Ted, she'd fit right in.
It's all a load of buggery bollocks but I'll be watching tonight all the same.
